Day 1: Welcome to Delray Beach

Welcome to sunny Delray Beach! I recommend arriving at your hotel as early as possible to make the most of your first day. You can leave your luggage with the front desk until your room is ready, then slip into vacation mode right away.
After a morning of travel, lunch is calling! Stay close to the hotel and head to Pura Vida for the perfect beachside breakfast or lunch—fresh food, ocean views, and relaxed vibes make it the ideal spot to kick off your trip. Afterward, take a leisurely stroll along the beach or unwind by the hotel pool with your girls.
Once you’ve checked in, consider placing an Instacart order from Publix with your favorite snacks, wine, and liquor—it’s a great way to stock up for the weekend without having to leave the room. Take some time to settle in, freshen up, and get ready for your first night out.
For dinner, keep it casual with beachfront dining and live music at Deck 84, a local favorite right on the water. If you’re in the mood for something a bit more upscale, try Roka Hula, Avalon Beach House, Vic & Angelo’s, or Elisabetta’s Ristorante—all located along lively Atlantic Avenue.
After dinner, explore some of the bars on “The Ave” like Tin Roof, Hurricanes, Bounce, or Johnnie Brown’s for a fun night out. Or, if you’re feeling low-key, head back to the hotel for a cozy girls’ game night and a toast to the weekend ahead.
Day 2: Boat day & beach vibes

Sleep in and ease into the day with breakfast delivered right to your door. I recommend The Seed Coffee + Juice Bar—one of my all-time favorite spots for a perfect latte and fresh bites. Another great option is Delray Everything Bagel, especially if you’re craving a quick beachside breakfast before heading out.
Today is boat day! Choose from a variety of charters, whether you want just a few hours on the water or a full-day adventure. Cruise along the scenic Intracoastal Waterway, take in the stunning homes and views, then drop anchor at a local sandbar for swimming, sunbathing, and a little music and champagne with the girls.
After your boat day, head back to the hotel to unwind by the pool or relax in your room before getting ready for a fun night out.
Tonight, make your way to Atlantic Avenue for dinner and drinks—see Day 1 for my favorite restaurant recommendations. It’s the perfect spot to keep the celebration going with great food, live music, and that signature Delray Beach energy.
Day 3: Brunch & beachside bliss

After a fun night out, a relaxed brunch is a must. Head to The Hampton Social for great scenery, delicious food, and refreshing drinks—it’s the perfect spot to recap the weekend’s highlights and toast to more memories ahead.
Once brunch wraps up, spend the rest of the day soaking up the sun and recovering in true vacation style. Whether you prefer lounging by the pool or relaxing on the beach, grab some chairs, take a dip, and enjoy some well-earned downtime with your girls. It’s the perfect way to recharge and savor your last full day in paradise.
As evening rolls in, the options are endless for your final night in Delray. Head back to Atlantic Avenue for dinner and drinks or keep it cozy with a low-key night in, sharing laughs, games, and one last toast to an unforgettable bachelorette weekend.
Need to know
When planning your trip, I recommend flying into Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) or Palm Beach International Airport (PBI)—both are convenient options and just a short drive to Delray.
While not part of the main itinerary, Delray also offers plenty of ways to stay active and enjoy the outdoors. Take a peaceful morning walk along the beach, rent bikes to cruise the shoreline, or book a workout class at one of the many nearby studios.
No matter how you spend your time, Delray Beach delivers the ultimate sun-soaked escape—the kind of trip that leaves you relaxed, recharged, and ready to plan your next girls’ getaway.
