Places to go for memorial day weekend near me

For the real-deal wine weekend, a trip to Provence ticks all the boxes. Skip the tourist-choked region of Marseille and opt to taste from the small group of winemakers in Les Baux-de-Provence village, producing magnificent red, rosé, and white wines. The almost-hidden Relais & Châteaux property, Baumanière Les Baux de Provence, is nestled among craggy rocks and lush olive groves. Comprised of five buildings, including an 18-century manor, the estate includes a Michelin-star restaurant, spa, three outdoor pools, and a tennis court.

If You Crave Southern Charm: Charleston, South Carolina

​86 Cannon boutique

READ REVIEWS 86 Cannon


This Southern city is about as perfectly posh as they come. From the colorful row homes to top-notch food scene (hello, Husk and mile-high coconut cake!), it’s no wonder that so many visitors crush hard on this Lowcountry locale. The 86 Cannon, a luxury boutique property, was constructed in the early Civil War-era, and now serves as a three-story home with five guest rooms designed by Betsy Berry of B. Berry Interiors. Guests can buzz around on the hotel’s bicycles and ride back in time for the nightly wine and cheese service.

Napa is a no-brainer for good reason: Michelin-starred restaurants, rolling hills, perfectly warm weather, and—of course—the wine. The ideal Memorial Weekend getaway would begin in a cheeky convertible, used to drive from SFO to Napa, and then serve as a fitting accessory for touring the wineries, such as Robert Sinskey and Sciandri Family Vineyards. Post up at the ever-so-enchanting Auberge du Soleil, where each room comes equipped with a soaking tub, fireplace, and private terrace, all set among 33-acres of intoxicating olive groves.

READ REVIEWS Enchantment Resort

Sedona, with its crimson buttes set against bright blue skies (a backdrop for the most breathtaking of sunsets), is as magical as it sounds. Visitors flock for the art and hiking, but it’s a spa city at heart, and ideal for a respite-seeking getaway. Hike the Oak Creek Canyon and Chimney Rock, then retreat to Mii Amo, a destination spa comprised of 16 rose-hued casitas. Indulge in Native American-inspired therapies as well as new-agey but luxurious treatments like a rain dance, Pinon body scrub, and energy clearing. If they’re booked, try its sister hotel, Enchantment Resort. And fret not, the neighboring properties share a spa.

If You're Craving the Sand Between Your Toes: Waikiki, Hawaii

The Royal Hawaiian Resort​

The Royal Hawaiian Resort​

READ REVIEWS The Royal Hawaiian


A Hawaiian getaway is a surprisingly zippy trip from the West Coast—and worth every minute in the air. Waikiki, long known for its surfer-chic vibe, is best experienced at The Royal Hawaiian, a historic hotel with a punchy pink façade that’s been nicknamed “The Pink Palace of the Pacific.” The hallways are bedecked with pineapple-print wallpaper and rooms filled with bamboo furnishings; it’s easy to see why an opening episode of Mad Men was filmed here. Tack on the views and envision a serious Mai Tai-sipping session on your lanai.

READ REVIEWS The Resort at Paws Up


“I’m in love with Montana. For other states I have admiration, respect, recognition, even some affection. But with Montana it is love. And it’s difficult to analyze love when you’re in it,” said John Steinbeck. Picture this: a colorful poncho, buttery-soft boots, and a look that’s crowned with the perfect Western hat. It’s the ensemble for your weekend at The Resort at Paws Up in Greenough: a luxury ranch that invented that whole glamping phenomenon.
