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.  

Enjoy a Mother’s Day Brunch

Mother’s Day and brunch are a classic combo.  

Treat mom to a special start to the day with a delicious morning meal in her honor.  

At Rosen Hotels & Resorts, we love to help families honor the moms in their lives. That’s why we host a variety of Mother’s Day brunches perfect for celebrating mothers and mother-figures of every kind.  

Whatever your brunch budget, we offer five unique events serving an array of menu items every mom is sure to love.  

This year, Rosen Inn International is hosting a Mother's Day dinner buffet with delicious dishes like chicken tortellini soup, Southern style fried chicken, and carved roast beef with a savory au jus. 

Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando takes a more midday approach to their Mother’s Day buffet. The 2025 menu features tasty soups and salads, smoked honey chipotle barbeque chicken, and a slew of savory sides and sweet desserts.  

At Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista, the brunch buffet menu is a beautiful balance of breakfast and lunch items. Join the celebration and enjoy dishes like lobster bisque, roasted honey ham, and breakfast classics like sugar waffles. A donut wall and bottomless mimosas (for guests over the age of 21) add extra fun to the celebration.

Our sister properties, Rosen Plaza, Rosen Centre, and Rosen Shingle Creek, each have beautiful Mother’s Day Brunch buffets with menus designed to delight and indulge the moms in your life.  

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 Espresso-Limon Exfoliation Detox or the Paradise Glow, 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 mom with an amazing spa special for Mother’s Day this year. 

The Spa at Rosen Centre is offering the A Motherly Glow Brightening Facial for $159, or the Mother Glows Best Mani/Pedi for $132. 

The Spa at Shingle Creek's May special includes a beautiful blend of lemongrass, lime, geranium, grapefruit, and patchouli essential oils and is available at a 25% discount.

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.  

Throughout spring and summer of 2025, you can admire the spectacular ORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN exhibit. This special event showcases over 20 one-of-a-kind sculptures inspired by classic origami and nature.  

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.  

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.  

In 2024, moms got to take home a free pound of U-pick blueberries. Stay tuned to see what special 2025 has in store!  

Treat Mom to a Stay at a Rosen Inns Hotel

An Orlando family vacation is the perfect way to make new memories that mom – and everyone else – will remember for years to come.

Plus, you can take advantage of onsite amenities like our seasonally heated pools, arcade rooms, and Kids Eat Free program, where kids 5 and under eat free with a paying adult.
