Grown Up Getaways
A Collection of our Favorite Travel Destinations
The key to a successful grown-up getaway is planning ahead. A little extra preparation before you leave—clear schedules, shared information, and a plan for the basics—goes a long way toward making the trip feel smooth for everyone involved. When things at home are well covered, it’s much easier to fully settle into being away.
Travel doesn’t stop when you become a parent—it simply evolves. While family trips are a core part of FiveScape, time away as adults plays an important role too. With thoughtful planning, parents can travel without their kids in a way that feels seamless, well-supported, and genuinely restorative.
This page features our favorite destinations for grown-up getaways, along with practical tips to ensure everything runs smoothly at home while you’re away. Whether it’s a long weekend or a longer escape, these trips are about reconnecting, slowing down, and fully enjoying the experience.
Favorite Destinations for Grown-Up Getaways
These are places we love for reconnecting, slowing the pace, and leaning into experiences that are harder to prioritize on family trips. Think walkable cities, great food and wine, beautiful hotels, and destinations where you can explore at your own rhythm—whether that means full days out or no plans at all. We’ll continue to add to this list as we travel and discover new favorites.

Making the Most of Time Away
Grown-up getaways are about more than the destination. They’re a chance to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy travel differently than you do with kids in tow. Whether that means lingering over meals, sleeping in, or building in unstructured time, these trips are an opportunity to travel in a way that feels refreshing and deeply satisfying.
