There’s nothing quite like Mother’s Day, that one special day of the year when you get to shower your mom with love and attention. And if you’re celebrating in Miami, there are so many ways you can treat her, whether that’s with a trip to the spa, a blissful boat cruise, or a delectable culinary excursion.
The team at Miami Culinary Tours love celebrating Mother’s Day as a way to show off all the best spots that we might visit during our Miami Food and Culture Tours. So whether you’re interested in delighting your taste buds or exploring the city, we’ve included a host of suggestions in this guide to celebrating Mother’s Day in Miami. If you have any questions about our tours, feel free to contact us.
What is Mother’s Day without mimosas? Brunch is a classic way of celebrating, with champagne, delicious food, and a vibrant atmosphere pulling together to create one memorable day.
In Miami, there are a number of cafes and restaurants that serve mouthwatering brunch options. The Rusty Pelican has everything from french toast to oysters on the menu, as well as a range of flavorful mimosas. At Balan’s in Brickell, you can indulge in Belgian waffles and cocktails among the beautiful decor. For those who are a bit more health-conscious, Pura Vida offers plenty of healthy breakfast meals that are served all day.
Whether or not your mom has a green thumb, she is sure to be delighted by a trip to the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. This expansive garden showcases rare plants, tropical flowers, aquatic exhibits, a butterfly garden and more, making it a true feast for the senses.
You can spend a day strolling through the lush collection of flora or even enjoy a picnic on the grass with the family. If you’d still like a champagne toast, you can have food and drinks at the Glasshouse Cafe.
If you really want to treat your mother, how about a luxurious and rejuvenating spa treatment? Miami is home to myriad spas that will restore the body and mind. One of them is The Palms AVEDA Spa, where the services are driven by an Ayurvedic philosophy. If you book a treatment of 50 minutes or more, you’ll also get to enjoy the hotel amenities, including the pool and beach.
At the Miami Four Seasons Spa, you can enjoy one of their signature treatments, such as a bespoke facial or lymphatic drainage, or a comprehensive spa package including massages and facials. For a truly reinvigorating experience, the spa at the Standard comes replete with a hammam, steam room, sauna, hot tub, ice room, and more.
If you’re looking for a unique Mother’s Day experience, the Deering Estate hosts a special Mother’s Day cruise. Departing from the estate, you’ll sail into Biscayne Bay onboard a comfortable catamaran. Glide along the water and admire the stunning views, all while sipping on a glass of complimentary champagne.
You can continue the celebrations on the estate with a picnic or enjoy exploring the picturesque and historic grounds. The Deering Estate is also one of our top picks for Non-Touristic Places to Explore in Miami, so you won’t have to worry about any crowds here.
Just because it’s Mother’s Day doesn’t mean the celebrations can’t continue into the evening. Whether you want to enjoy a special dinner or combine it with other activities in the day, fine dining in Miami is the perfect way to spoil your mom.
Playa Miami is the city’s premiere restaurant for steak and seafood, but it also serves an electrifying atmosphere. At 10 pm, Playa transforms into a dinner party, offering an elevated nighttime experience with cocktails, food, and live entertainment.
At Mau Miami, you can relish a multi-sensory dining experience. With a decadent, Mediterranean-inspired menu and luxurious decor, Mau certainly appeals to all the senses.
If you’re looking for the best of the best, Miami has a number of Michelin-starred restaurants, including Elcielo, Ariete, Tambourine Room, and the Surf Club Restaurant. This is a Mother’s Day your mom won’t forget!

If your mom is interested in architecture and history, our South Beach, Miami, Food and Art Deco Tour visits the iconic Art Deco District.
