When searching for the top Mother’s Day gift ideas there are quite a few things moms want — and don’t want — at the bottom of the list are things that feel like a chore, so no vacuums or yard tools this Mother’s Day. At the top of the list were things that help with relaxation, pampering and restaurant reservations. Here are a few ideas on what to get Mom this Mother’s Day.

Dining Out for Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day Brunch is a great way to start Mom’s big day. Many local restaurants bring out all the stops — and even some roses and mimosas — for the occasion.

Grand Hyatt Vail Resort & Spa – Vail



The Grand Hyatt Vail Resort & Spa’s Mother’s Day Brunch has prepared a special Mother’s Day Brunch featuring offerings for the whole family at Gessner. Look for a chef-curated buffet, fresh seafood and decadent desserts along with bottomless mimosas. Come in on Sunday and brunch will be served from 6–11 a.m. The price is $43 per adult, $18 per child and $30 bottomless mimosas per person. For reservations, go to OpenTable.com.

Brunch is synonymous with Ludwig’s at the Sonnenalp Hotel Vail, but when it’s Mother’s Day, expect to find a few more extra special touches. The buffet will feature all sorts of ways to serve eggs — from fried or poached to boiled or in omelets. Add in the seafood like crab cake Benedicts, and lobster or pile your plate with biscuits and gravy, empanadas or chilaquiles, quiche hash browns, bacon — and that’s all before you’ve even seen the desserts and fresh pastries. The price is $90 per person, add $35 for the bottomless mimosas and bloody marys. Reservations are required at OpenTable.com.

Eagle Ranch Golf Club Grille

At the Eagle Ranch Golf Club Grill, it doesn’t matter if Mom is a golfer or not, she’s invited to come and enjoy avocado toast and a mimosa for $18 on Sunday. Enjoy the view from the patio and if golf is on the agenda for Mom, Eagle Ranch Golf Club is offering 18 holes (with cart) for $60 and 9 holes (with cart) for $40.

Westin Riverfront Resort and Spa – Avon

If a board and craft cocktails with a view is more Mom’s thing, take her to the Lookout Bar at The Westin Riverfront.
