[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breakfast: simple no-cook stuff like cereal, fruit, yogurt, bagels, send DH out for donuts...

Lunch: again simple and no-cook: sandwiches, fruit, chips.  Use paper plates.

Go out for dinners.[/quote]
Except for the breakfast, I agree with ^.   I would do eggs and toast. Not hard.    Eating out also makes you overeat.

And bring enough clothing for the entire trip so you don't have to do laundry.

The reason why people do airbnbs is because eating out 3 meals/day gets really expensive.  Plus, having a common area like the living room/dining room where everyone can hang out is much nicer.  I hate having 4 people squeeze into a hotel room.  I also hate the noise at all hours of the night in hotel rooms, like the elevator, doors slamming closed, people talking in the hallways.

We have done mostly airbnb, but occasionally do hotels. Last time we stayed at a hotel when we went to visit my parents,  we went out to eat breakfast everyday, and there was just too much food.  This time we got an airbnb, and we made smaller, healthier breakfasts at home. And we could eat at different times because we all get up at different times.

We've been to an all inclusive once, and it was nice for a few days.  But, the hotel room issues would still grate on me after a while.

My kids are much older now,  17 and 20, so now we get two rooms, but that means we don't all hang out in one common area, and breakfast is still an issue.[/quote]
