In the South, we have a saying, “If Mamma ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy!” I’d be willing to bet that every culture has a version of this little truth. That’s why we’ve decided to let you in on a few secrets to help keep mom happy next time you visit us. Below are three ways to give back to the one who has given us so much.

Pamper Her

A couple of days on the beach can do some real damage to her skin & hair. Why not treat her to a day at the spa? You can take the kids out for a round of frisbee golf while she relaxes. She’ll look & feel great, and you’ll earn some major ‘brownie points’.

We recommend Absolutely Fabulous Salon. Located in the heart of Garden City (and just steps from our Garden City vacation rentals), this is a full service salon. They’ll pamper her with any of these great services:

• Hair
• Nails
• Massage
• Skin Care
• Waxing

A beautified mom is a happy mom. Contact AbFab Salon today to surprise her with a day of pampering she deserves. It’s an investment with guaranteed returns!

Given Her A New Look

Nothing compliments that new hairstyle quite like a new outfit. Good news! We’ve got a solution that wont break your bank. Just head to one of our two Tanger Outlet locations. Each complex features brand-name stores, selling at discount prices. Retailers include (but are not limited to):

• J. Crew
• Brooks Bros.
• Lane Bryant
• Nine West
• Liz Claiborne

With over 100 retailers ~ including specialty shops selling accessories, home goods & more ~ we’re gonna bet that mom will want to make a return trip to the outlets. Who knows? After that massages & manicure, she may be in the mood to pick up a few treats for you & the kids!

(Go For The Trifecta With) Dinner & Dancing

Your Beach Realty vacation rental is just minutes from Ragtops & Roadsters in Murrells Inlet. This wonderful new South Strand venue promises an evening of fun for you & the Mrs. R&R hosts Fontinello’s Italian Cuisine, a real “Old Country” style restaurant. They feature traditional Italian & Sicilian fare, including table-side Caesar Salads and their delicious Crème Brûlée! Reservations recommended.

When you’ve finished your romantic dinner, head back to the “Speakeasy Room”. It features a great bar & lounge with an authentic 50s theme. There’s plenty of room on the dance floor, and you may find yourself returning to hear the classic sounds of both the DJ & the live house band. Each play a wide variety of classic Soul, Blues, Rock and R&B. The only place like it on the Grand Strand!

Garden City & Surfside Beach have many ways to keep every member of your family happy. The Beach Realty family is here to guide you to the best our community has to offer. Let’s put mom first ~ it’ll keep everyone happy!
