It is hard to come up with the perfect gift for someone who has given us life. Our moms hold a special place in our hearts, even though at times we do not always get along. Shoutout to moms, stepmothers, aunts, grandmothers, sisters, and friends who had been role models. Let us treat the inspiring women in our lives to a day or two of exactly what they deserve, relaxation.

Whether this is for a spa experience, resort trip, or a gift card to a local retail shop, it is still special. Showering your mom with flowers or surprising her with brunch is always a good idea. Let us take a look at the Hudson Valley gift guide for all the mother figures in our lives. Cheers to them!

Spa Gift Card

I think this is the one gift that any would hope to receive. I know for myself that I've always reminded friends or family how much I love the spa. I enjoy doing this for my mom and friends because it really is such a treat. Check out these local spas for a facial, massage, and more.

Retail Experience

How exciting would it be to get a gift card for a retail shop? I get excited that I get to pick out the items that I would want and have a shopping day. Give mom the gift of retail therapy in the Hudson Valley.

Eden Boutique, New Paltz

Flower Shop

Nothing says I love you like flowers. My grandmother was a florist and she showed me how much love, thought and kindness goes into a bouquet of flowers. Receiving flowers automatically brings a smile to your face. Shop by one of these local florists to brighten moms day.

Resort trip

It’s hard to give mom the most perfect gift when she gave you life, right? I feel this way every year. I enjoy taking my mom on an overnight trip to get away, breathe and experience something new. Save up for a week, book a room and surprise her, I’m sure it’ll be a time that she never forgets.
