Moms are superheroes.  

Mother’s Day is the perfect time to show them how much we appreciate their love, dedication, compassion, and patience.

Looking for the best way to make Mom feel special this year? Let us help!  

At Rosen Inns, we know that Orlando is a great place to honor the moms, moms-to-be, and mother figures in your life.  

 

Here are the best ways to celebrate Mother’s Day in Orlando.  

 

Key Takeaways

 

Make Something Memorable

Mom will always love a meaningful experience spent with her favorite people, and it's even better when it comes with a souvenir. 

Take, for example, painting something totally original at Abstract Orlando. 

At this unique studio, you're invited to try your hand at fluid art, a method of pouring colorful paint onto a canvas of your choosing. 

After a fun artistic experience of unleashing your inner creative, your piece will be dried in-house before being covered with a coating of protective resin for a polished and finished look. 

Pick your pieces up a week later for a Mother's Day memory that you can use or display year-round.

Help Her Unwind with Spa Treatments

Moms spend so much time taking care of everyone else; turn the tables and let her be the one to get special treatment on Mother’s Day.  

An indulgent spa treatment like a massage or a facial can feel like a true gift when Mom may need it most.  

At The Spa at Rosen Centre and The Spa at Shingle Creek, you’ll find menus of treatments to care for mom from head to toe.  

When you treat mom to a blissful experience at The Spa at Rosen Shingle Creek like the Harmony Massage or Renewal Facial, she’ll be able to unwind even further with a soak in the whirlpool tub or lounging by the outdoor pool with a cocktail in hand.  

We’ll help you spoil her with an amazing spa special for Mother’s Day this year. 

Mom will be in great hands when you treat her to a relaxing and rejuvenating spa treatment from either of our beautiful Rosen spas.

 

 

 

Stroll Through the Leu Gardens

Instead of gifting mom a bouquet of flowers, take her somewhere special where she can be surrounded by beautiful blossoms and greenery.  

Leu Gardens is Orlando’s premier botanical oasis with 53 acres of beautifully designed and maintained gardens.  

In 2026, Leu Gardens is celebrating its 65th anniversary with the LEGACY IN BLOOM exhibit featuring artistic gateways inspired by Florida throughout the property.

Take your time walking alongside over 15,500 plants in curated collections like the Rose Garden, the Arid Garden, the Edible Garden, and more.  

Pack a picnic and enjoy treating Mom to a beautiful day outdoors.  

Plus, on Mother’s Day, moms get free entry to Leu Gardens!

 

 

Go Bigger than a Box of Chocolates

If you’re celebrating a mom who loves chocolate, go a step further than a box from the grocery store.  

Instead, treat her to a chocoholic paradise at the Chocolate Museum & Café on International Drive.  

Tour the museum and learn about the origins of cacao and the history of chocolate. Then, marvel at chocolate sculptures of some of the world’s most recognizable landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower and Mount Rushmore.  

After the tour, grab a table at the café and indulge in rich coffee and hot chocolate, paninis, pastries, and of course, a spectacular array of artisan house-made chocolate truffles.  

Another great spot for a chocolatey splurge is AJ Chocolate House in Winter Park, a chic and sophisticated boutique chocolate shop serving milkshakes, fondue, pastries, charcuterie, waffles, and wine.  

AJ Chocolate House also has an incredible selection of handmade chocolates and truffles that Mom will love. Enjoy them with a cup of coffee or customize a box to take home and enjoy at another time.

 

Toast to Mom at High Tea

Make mom feel like the guest of honor she is by treating her to an elegant high tea experience.  

At The Tea Room Experience in downtown Orlando, you can enjoy an English-style afternoon tea with whimsical décor, finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with homemade Devonshire cream and preserves, and petite desserts.  

Choose from over two dozen loose leaf teas to sip while you sit and enjoy each other’s company on a day all about celebrating Mom.  

Or, take your tea party on the go with Bloom Ride Orlando, a beautiful purple party bus offering a luxury high tea experience as you're driven up and down I-Drive in a bus bursting with lavender, lilac, violet, and every other shade of purple you can imagine.

 

 

Spend the Day Blueberry Picking

Southern Hill Farms is a great Orlando destination for a day of family fun with Mom.  

Pick your own blueberries, zinnias, sunflowers, peaches, and vegetables to take home. Then, purchase wristbands to let the kids play in the Kid Zone, an area packed with carnival rides and games that will keep them smiling and entertained.  

Enjoy live music while you dine from food trucks serving seasonal treats like blueberry cobbler, blueberry lemonade, donuts, burgers, and more.
