New Orleans Canal Street

Are you ready to book a girls’ trip to New Orleans? Long before the movie Girls Trip, New Orleans has been the perfect destination for bachelorette weekends, sorority conventions, and birthday celebrations. Now is the time to get your girls together and plan a weekend of fun and relaxation in the Big Easy.

Recommendations for Your Girls’ Trip to New Orleans

As the New Orleans Self-Care Expert, I know exactly where you should go when it comes to hotel stays, spa days, dining and shopping. Be sure to include these recommendations while you make your itinerary.

Hotel Stay

When it comes to accommodations, “yes the hotel does matter.” Make sure to include a hotel that not only has a great location but also has amenities and exceptional service.

Add this Chic and Trendy hotel to the list of options. Hotel Fontenot is located Downtown and is within walking distance from the Caesars Superdome. Have drinks or brunch while listening to live music at the Peacock Room. Don’t forget to grab a Boozy Treat from Gospel Coffee.

Hotel Spa Day

A Girls’ Trip is NOT a girls’ trip to me without a spa day. Depending on the hotel that you booked, you may not even have to leave the property for a day of pampering.

The Spa at Windsor Court

The website reads “Your journey towards heightened levels of relaxation and well-being begins now…” and it is true. Spend the day at the Windsor Court Spa and you won’t be disappointed. Don’t forget the end of the day poolside.
