The concept of a brunch has always intrigued me. Even the word “brunch” strikes me as something special, something elegant and, knowing that The Beach Club in Gulf Shores is offering a Mother’s Day brunch, something perfect for Mom.
The resort’s Southbeach Bar & Grill is presenting a savory brunch buffet for Mother’s Day. For $24.95 (and $9.95 per child age 5 to 12), guests can have their choice of various salads, side dishes like roasted sweet potatoes and zucchini and yellow squash casserole, Eggs Benedict and blueberry pancakes, various meats and seafood, and of course a dessert table. And to really make Mom—and her youngsters—feel special, children will get the chance to pick a flower from the floral shop to give to their mom.
It’s a great opportunity to spend some time with Mom on her special day and eat some delicious food. Call 251-224-3600 for reservations, and click here to view the full menu.

Celebrate with Mom
I know many people who stress when it comes to buying gifts for people. Mother’s Day is no exception, and for good reason—it’s Mom, after all. She deserves something spectacular.
In all likelihood, Mom probably wants to celebrate the very thing that defines her motherhood—family. This is where the special Mother’s Day deals being offered by Turquoise Place, Caribe, and The Beach Club come in handy. Turquoise Place and Caribe are offering 40% off stays between May 5th and 12th, a free spa service at Sirena del Sol, and a scrapbooking kit. The Beach Club is offering two- and three-night packages, also with a free spa service and scrapbooking kit, as well as a $25 resort credit for a two-night stay and a $50 resort credit for a three-night stay.
The nice thing about a gift like this is that the whole family can enjoy it. (Although to emphasize the point that it’s a Mother’s Day gift, you should probably let Mom enjoy the free spa service and resort credit.)

Big Savings in April
There are two reasons why I’m excited about the weekend of April 23rd to the 25th. First, it’s the 26th Annual Interstate Mullet Toss & Gulf Coast’s Greatest Beach Party. And a great beach party it is—lots of food, activity and, of course, mullet tossing.
The other reason is the incredible deal Spectrum Resorts is offering for that weekend: 40% off the cost of a rental at Turquoise Place or Caribe Resort plus eight cab vouchers. Saving a significant amount of money is always a bonus, but the cab vouchers are the icing on the cake—peace of mind concerning safe partying is essential for a successful weekend of revelry.
The Mullet Toss weekend isn’t the only hot deal Spectrum is offering in April. Anyone bringing kids to Turquoise Place or Caribe will also make out like a bandit this month. The more kids you bring, the more money you save. Learn more about this and other deals here.

More to Dining than the Food
When I’m vacationing at a resort, I want a unique experience. I want nice, clean lodging; a scenic view; fun and/or relaxing activities (that I don’t get to do at home); and good food.
The food is a very important part of the whole experience. And being “good” food isn’t the only make-or-break factor. Atmosphere is important, as are choices—I could be eating the best shrimp and lobster in town, but if the restaurant is anything but charming, I’m likely going to feel the urge to ditch the food and leave.
The Beach Club in Gulf Shores definitely presents options: two restaurants, two bars, a pool-side grill, and an old-fashioned soda fountain and coffee house. There’s nothing boring about these selections. And as for atmosphere, “old-fashioned soda fountain” and “pool-side” speak volumes, in my opinion.
All of the dining settings at The Beach Club offer pleasant, relaxing settings. Learn more about them here.

A Little Self-Indulgence
One of the perks of being on vacation is indulging in the “extras,” those little self-indulgences that allow us to focus on no one and nothing else but ourselves. They aren’t necessary…and yet maybe they are.
Consider the spa experience, for example. You could visit Gulf Shores, relax on the beach, and enjoy the area activities and attractions, and you’d have a fabulous vacation. Throw in a trip (or two) to The Beach Club’s spa for a little pampering and your vacation has just reached a new level. With manicures and pedicures and various massages, relaxation is a certainty—and isn’t that the point of vacation?
The great thing about The Beach Club’s spa is you can choose what works for you: the experience could be just about you and your particular situation (the spa offers special packages for moms-to-be and brides), or you could share it with someone special by taking advantage of the couples massage. Get a facial, have your hair done, even eat lunch while you’re there—whatever it takes to decompress and get the most out of your “me” time.
