Do you get your teen(s) their own room?

[Anonymous]

Nope. We cram all five of us in a room with a rollaway. What a dumb thing to spend money on! (We also get an air BnB or house for longer than 2-3 nights everywhere but Disney/Universal).

We've done both and prefer Airbnb so everyone can get their own bedroom

Yes. 2 rooms. Teens in 1 and parents in the other.

This and we need the second shower on a cruise. Because of cruise pricing and what you have to pay for the 3rd/4th room occupant anyway, a second room is barely any more money.

No, but for more than a night I try for a residential suite type place and put my teen on the pullout couch and me in the bedroom. Also, for an actual vacation we rent a house and multiple bedrooms.

I have three teens and we get them a second room (ideally adjoining) when we travel as a whole family. But when I travel with just one or two of them we only get one room.

Same. I have a 13 and 16 year old. We would all love another rooms, but even one room ends up being expensive for us! So two double beds it is…

[Anonymous]

Nope!

Recently though, in Europe, we had to get a double room (queen bed) and a single room (full bed). The rooms are just smaller and the pricing structure made it even out. Teen enjoyed it, and when I was feeling sick one night DH slept with teen to preserve his immune system!

On the second leg we got a "junior suite" which in Europe was a King bed and a pull-out Queen sofa. Teen was a little more attitudinal that stint, but it was the second half so I'll allow it.

Yes. Ever since teen was 14 or so, we’ve gotten her a separate room. I like having time & privacy with DH, and hate having to nag about keeping things tidy. Teen is happier to be on her own, or with a friend/girlfriend.

It costs more, but everyone is happier for the extra space.

Yes almost always, we have two teens. If it’s a sports tournament and it’s only one parent and one kid, will share a room.

For us, everyone is happier when our checkout bill is $3500 instead of $7000 lol

DP here. They are. They get to stay in nicer hotels, have nicer excursions and a larger souvenir budget. They truly don’t mind. Sorry yours do.

We have four kids, so we've always gotten the kids their own room once they were toilet trained.

5 kids here. Mom, daughters, and baby in one room. Dad and sons in the other.
