6 Fabulous Summer Hostess Gifts for Beach House, Sailboat and Vacation Guests



Summer is here!  Which means it is beach house and sailboat season. Some of us are lucky to have been invited for overnight stays for a week or weekend at the beach, sailboats or lake houses. But you might be asking yourself what to bring.  The perfect host and hostess gifts are those that have been thoughtfully selected showing your appreciation for friends and family opening up their homes for you.

I love to give hostess gifts that fit the season, the theme of the stay or the place.  If you have been invited to a beach house for an extended visit a great gift would be something with a beach theme, an item that is useful at the beach or a non-perishable edible gift that helps celebrate summer. 

Summery & Beachy Hostess Gifts

  1. A basket filled with sun care and sun screen products.  The organic line of sunscreen products from COOLA sun care would make a great gift.  
  2. A pair of beautiful high quality beach towels are always appreciated. The Travel Lux Microfiber Towels have beautiful designs,  are super compact and are fast drying - perfect for a summer house or sailboat.
  3. Napkins and placemats with a nautical them. Check out these cool ones from www.44knots.com 
  4. A bottle of wine presented in a chic wine cooler. A crisp Rose wine is a perfect choice during the hot summer months.
  5. A whimsical beach tote packed with a selection of favorite summer items - a reusable water bottle, a great book or magazine, a beach and pool towel and a gift card to iTunes
  6. S’more making supplies – You can put together your own kit with sticks, marshmallows, quality chocolate and graham crackers presented in a pretty basket or purchase a premade gift set. 

Remember to always present the gift at the beginning of the stay.   Food gifts are tricky unless you have agreed upon what to bring beforehand with the host and hostess.  The same goes for plants and flowers unless of course you know you hostess is dedicated gardener.

Enjoy a fabulous stay!

A Summer Must Have - Travel Lux Microfiber Travel Beach Towels

With the introduction of the Travel Lux Microfiber Beach & Pool Towels, SolEscapes takes the concept of a compact travel towel and makes it into a fun, stylish and functional luxury beach towel for all beach & pool enthusiasts and warm weather vacationers who are not willing to sacrifice comfort and style for practicality. The result is a generous 40x70” sized towel in a super soft and absorbent microfiber material. The large full sized sea life print is fun and whimsical with bold and vibrant colors just like a beach towel should be. Little details are not forgotten, such as a perfectly placed hanging hook in SolEscapes’ signature yellow and contrasting border stitching all the way around the towel.

The Travel Lux Beach & Pool Towels are fantastic for beach, resort & cruise travel but also for daily use at the local gym and pool. Additionally, customers love these microfiber towels for pool parties, boating and beach summerhouse vacation rentals. Find out more about travel towels.
