but when we go into the hotel room, I would rather be in a place I like than 2 floors away from a family member (or even worse... sharing a wall with a family member! )



me too, well most family members Chat Icon

again, what type of vaca is this? most vacations we take, we are out of the hotel 99% of the time. shower and sleep thats it.

one resort we stayed at in FL, had tons of stuff for the kids, so we'd DEF plan that together, no question.

Re: If you went on vacation and could afford a more $$$ hotel...

We went to a wedding in FL with DH's family, and there were rooms blocked at 3 hotels. His parents stayed at the Marriott, and when we went into our hotel, the rooms were disgusting!!!!!

I promptly picked up my bags and checked us into the Embassy, then SIL found out and blew a gasket 'cuz she couldn't afford the Embassy!

To me, I am a hotel snob, only the best, but if the hotel is nice to begin with, I'd opt to stay with family......but not SIL!!!!!

It would depend on a number of factors for me.

No, I would stay at the same hotel. If it's a family trip, staying at the same hotel will be more convenient. If you want different hotels, book seperate vacations.



agree!

We do family vacations all the time & we always stay at the same resort. If there is an option to upgrade to a nicer room, we do that but we would never consider going to another hotel. It makes the trip pointless for us

Re: If you went on vacation and could afford a more $$$ hotel...

The only reason why I would not stay with my family is if this was the only vacation I could take for the year and I opted to use my time off/$$ for a family trip. If I didn't have the vacation time or budget for a separate couples vacation, and there was another resort at which I really wanted to stay, I might consider staying elsewhere. But, only under these circumstances.

then the rest of your family, would you stay there by yourselves?

Even though the rest of the family is staying at a very nice (moderate) hotel.

ETA: I am not the one wanting to stay somewhere elseChat Icon



No. I would stay where the rest of my family is going to be. That's the point of going on vacation together. IMHO...

It would depend on how bad the place that they were staying was. If I could, I would stay there.

This is my thought on this as well. I don't generally go away with family, so if I did, I would expect to stay in the same place.

As much as I would want to, I wouldn't do that.
