Moody Gardens Hotel at Christmas

Moody Gardens goes all out for Christmas!

I love Moody Gardens Hotel at Christmas! We took a family weekend getaway to Galveston, Texas at Christmastime. It was magical! Our stay at Moody Gardens Hotel was hosted as a part of a familiarization trip with Texas Travel Talk and Galveston City Visitors Bureau. All opinions are my own.

From the moment I stepped into Moody Gardens Hotel, I was in the Christmas spirit! Oh and it was in spite of my husband. Ha ha. The things he pulls on me. We drove up to the unloading area, and I began hefting our luggage onto a cart. We had it all figured out as to how we were going to get everything and everyone in, but the next thing I knew, my husband flew past me yelling, “I have to go to the bathroom!” leaving me standing there with kids everywhere, the luggage half in and half out, and the van running. I shook my head, did the best I could, and laughed and laughed. What else?

How could I be annoyed upon walking into a Christmas wonderland? It was so beautiful!

At select times complementary warm apple cider was offered, just when I wondered how it could be more perfect!

Moody Gardens Hotel is wonderful for families! Make sure and check the Kids Crew activities schedule! Varying by season, but sure to be lots of family fun with activities like s’mores, arts and crafts, movie nights and so much more!

Accommodations are elegant with attention to detail.

Upscale bathroom accessories, deluxe bathrobes, and twice daily maid service had me wishing I could just sink in and stay…but there’s so much to explore onsite!

We always think we should work out while we travel, but generally seem to do more walking and hiking.  We were; however, so impressed with the indoor lap pool!

Dedicated to your workout when you travel?  The full service spa and fitness center will not disappoint.

Moody Gardens Hotel does Christmas well! While you’re there, enjoy Moody Gardens Festival of Lights, Ice Skating, and Moody Gardens Ice Land! You will be in the Christmas spirit for sure!

    Oh my goodness! That is so very festive and gorgeous! I love when places of business decorate to the hilt for the holiday season. You just can’t help but be in a good mood when you see it all.

    I love going to places which are really decorated for Christmas. This looks like a lovely and really nice hotel. I must keep it on my list when we travel for places to stay.

    Oh I love the Lap Pool! One thing I love is pools at hotels. I’d rather get my work out in with swimming.
