| Does nobody want to have sex with their spouse on vacation? I can’t understand cramming into one room if you have the financial resources for any other arrangement. |

| Not ever. Has not been an issue. |

| There should be no expectations if they are not paying. |

Apparently, no. I once asked how to cleverly kick the kids out of the room for a while to enjoy time with DH, and you wouldn’t believe the comments! People said it was gross that we couldn’t go a week without sex, and how rude it would be to have sex in the same room they had to come back and sleep in. |

Visit the relationship forum. Most posters here don’t have sex. |

Honestly some vacations are more about sex than others. Going to Japan and walking 20k steps while jetlagged vs going to a Caribbean island and hanging out on the beach. |

| I personally think its odd that your only hold back is that her being in another room "wont be as much fun". Damn. |

No, the basic hotel room won’t be as much fun

What makes it "fun"? Who is in their room that much? |

That’s not what I’m saying at all. We have the option to stay in a nicer room. Why does the option even exist at all if people don’t prefer nicer accommodations? I don’t understand why you think it’s crazy to want to stay in a nicer room with a nicer view, or whatever. |

Family of 6.
Sometimes we get a 2 or 3 bedroom condo. When we cruise, we always get 2 cabins; sometimes we split 3/3 and sometimes we split 2/4. When we stay at hotels in Europe, we typically split 3/3. When we stay at an Embassy Suites or comparable hotel with 2 beds plus a pull out couch, we don’t get an additional hotel room. If there’s no couch, then we get two rooms. When driving, we always bring an air mattress in a duffel bag just in case someone opts to crash separately. (These days it’s a trifold Milliard foam sleep mattress in a travel bag—far more comfy than an air mattress.) I can’t imagine getting two hotel rooms for a family of 3—especially a teen girl who seems uncomfortable being alone. You might consider inviting a friend to join you and having the two girls stay in their own hotel room (or a cousin). |

We always get two rooms .One for us, one for now 16 yo DS. And we don’t do adjoining rooms. We are typically in a suite and DS is in a standard room or deluxe/larger room unless he gets upgraded.
And yees sex is a big part of why we do this. When we are vacation we are having sex multiple times a day. |
