This year, instead of ties, cologne or power tools, why not celebrate Father’s Day the Aventura way…Here are some great ideas for gifts you can find within city limits:
TLC:
After working hard all day on perfecting their golf swing or winning a tough tennis match, busy Aventura dads would especially appreciate being pampered with a rejuvenating massage or spa treatment at the Willow Stream Spa at the Fairmont Turnberry Isle – or maybe a makeover at Miles & Lyle – the luxury barbershop that lets clients bring their own 14 karat gold scissors.
Glorious Food:
Gift certificates from Whole Foods Market in Aventura are a naturally good present – but if you want to take dad out for dinner, make reservations now at great Aventura restaurants like Ocean Prime, Grill on the Alley or Bourbon Steak – just make sure to bring along some siblings or other family members willing to split the bill!
Best Dressed:
If dad’s wardrobe needs some updating, Aventura Mall is the perfect place to find all the right looks – but if you want to give him the greatest gift of all, promise he won’t have to come shopping with you again any time soon. .
More Ideas:
Get your dad a membership to the Aventura Community Recreation Center or a Starbucks gift card so he can stay in good shape and have enough energy to chase after the kids. Movie buff dads would also love a gift certificate to AMC Aventura 24 Theatres so instead of a cartoon or chick flick, they can pick which summer blockbuster they really want to see!
Picture Perfect:
For a highly personalized Father’s Day gift, give dad a picture postcard of you and your family proclaiming, “Thanks for moving us to Aventura – the city that makes it feel like Father’s Day every day!”
