Lightbulb 50th Birthday gift advice from the ladies please..

My wife is turning 50 in November and I was thinking of gifting her a spa day or something similar. Does anyone know of a women’s spa that is local to the Villages area that would be a good place to book a day of pampering for her birthday?

Also, other birthday ideas in case you think of an alternate to a spa package.

Thanks in advance!

Don’t do this unless you know for certain she would enjoy it. Surprisingly not all women do. A nice day trip or overnight is an alternative. There are so many beautiful places in Florida.

I agree. My wife loves to get away from the house to go to a nice resort or the beach.

Sweet idea! Diamond Nail Bair in Lady Lake does phenomenal work. I also recommend Azulene Day Spa in Ocala for everything spa day, massages, etc. if you are okay with looking outside of The Villages area.
Dinner at Chop House is another recommendation

My near neighbor took his wife to a Paint Ball Battle for her 50th!
She loved it.
Our son in law took our youngest daughter for a tandem parachute jump for her 50th.
She enjoyed that so much she did a solo shortly after.
For my wife's 50th I took a dozen Viagra, and gave my wife the best week of her life!

I love you two Bills (& your wife, not making an improper pass here). You always make me laugh out loud &/or your posts are thoughful & on point. I understand, but the Villages lost when you decided to not to come this year.

I hope you know your wife well enough to have an idea if she would like a spa day.

Brownwood Hotel, has multiple packages available. Very clean and safe spa.

A trip to the beach at a great hotel stay and dinner.

A trip on the new Bright Line to Miami for site seeing, and dinner, and maybe an overnight in a boutique hotel

Told my wife about the paintball idea at dinner. She said it sounds like a lot of fun. Who knew? We are planning to go in the next few weeks. Thanks, twobills!

For my fiftieth, we rented the local Country Club and I had a helluva party with all my friends. We had my favorite food, a DJ, and my best friend took one of my pictures when I was kid, blew it up, and everyone signed it. That was fourteen years ago and it still gives me goose bumps whenever I look at it.

you've got to do something much better than a spa day. Yawn and boring. Use you imagination, or ideas from others on this site. Dinner at the Equestrian Center maybe and a tour of the area? Polo match? Or both?

Can't help you with a specific spa (I'm too frugal to pamper myself that way), but if I was her, I'd LOVE IT!!!! Hope she enjoys your special treat to her.
