You\u2019re about to become parents, one of the most intense, yet rewarding, life experiences a couple can face. Once bub comes, it won\u2019t be as easy to get away for special couple time. So why not treat yourselves to some relaxation and romance now, before the baby arrives?<\/p>\n

But an Aussie babymoon has got you covered on all these fronts, and it means you can avoid flying if you\u2019ve already passed the 32-week mark.<\/p>\n

So here are 10 of the best Aussie hotels for a babymoon in 2018!<\/p>\n
