Ladies weekend: 5 places to visit with the girls 

December 2, 2022

Like the song goes, “Girls just want to have fun.” Ladies weekend trips are growing in popularity as women appreciate some much-deserved bonding time with their besties. 

A 2021 article in the Washington Post notes that “girlfriend travel” generates social support that becomes invaluable in times of stress. Ladies weekend trips are supposed to be special. That is why many women are choosing to start and end that trip in luxury aboard one of Elite Jets’ private jets:  

  • Gulfstream G550 : This long-haul jet has a 6,750-mile range and transports up to 18 passengers 

Looking for ideas? Below are five destinations that are popular for ladies weekend trips:  

Shopping on Fifth Avenue 

The best shopping street in Naples is Fifth Avenue South, but Fifth Avenue in New York City is a true shopper’s paradise. The list of retail stores on Fifth Avenue is a who’s who of fashion: Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Tiffany, Louis Vuitton and many more. With a trendy new outfit and handbag, it’s time to venture a few blocks over to catch a Broadway show. 

  • Airport: Teterboro Airport (Teterboro, New Jersey) 

Sipping Wines in Napa Valley 

Just outside San Francisco, “wine country” encompasses Napa and Sonoma valleys. Collectively, the region has more than 800 wineries, many of which welcome wine tourism. Wineries offer tastings and behind-the-scenes tours of fields, caves and wine cellars. For special events, wineries partner with local farm-to-table restaurants and chefs to create a magical ladies weekend. 

  • Airports: Napa County Airport (Napa, California) or Sonoma County Airport (Santa Rosa, California) 

Spa Retreat in Vail 

Colorado is known for its numerous ski resorts, and Vail certainly has some of the best. Surrounded by natural beauty, Vail has become a spa destination for those seeking to relax, rejuvenate and indulge in their own health and wellness. Massages, facials, oxygen bars, nutritional cleansings and other female-focused services offer pampering and a respite from daily routines. 

  • Airport: Eagle County Regional Airport (Gypsum, Colorado) 

Hilton Head Beach Retreat 

Beach retreats require more than just sand and water. Hilton Head’s white sand beaches, brilliant sunshine and blue-tinged surf look amazing on postcards. Stepping away from the coastline can reveal additional treasures: bike trails, wildlife refuges, outdoor sports, spas, galleries and endless shopping. The island’s laid-back atmosphere and Southern hospitality make it perfect for a ladies weekend trip.  

  • Airport: Hilton Head Island Airport (Hilton Head Island, South Carolina) 

South Beach by Helicopter 

Helicopters fly at lower altitudes than jets, which turns a cross-state flight to South Beach into an eco-tour over the Florida Everglades. Affluent individuals frequent South Beach to be seen, so arriving in a helicopter creates a grand first impression. Once on the ground, visitors can charter yachts for sightseeing trips, take a culinary tour down A1A or simply people-watch on the beach. 

  • Airport: Private helipads
