[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Given that our kids are 12 months and 3 years old, we are not interested in spending $$$ and going to fancy places right now. Our inexpensive beach town vacations where we can take a lot of naps, eat kid friendly food and that are within driving distance seem like the best and easiest choice for right now, especially given that we won't have any childcare help on the trip. When they're older, sure, fancy vacations may be more appealing.[/quote]

That's totally fine, but it reflects that you have different needs and interests in terms of vacationing than they do.  You are just at a different place than them, and it isn't going to work out unless someone is doing something that they don't really want to do.  I have two kids that are older than yours (8 and 11), and honestly, a vacation that requires dealing with nap schedules and younger kids who need to be entertained and have kid friendly food doesn't sound that appealing to me, even though I have my own kids and relatively inexpensive tastes.

My kids are older than your kids are.  I would do a long weekend with little ones as long as we had separate accommodations.  I wouldn't need 5 star.[/quote]

Okaaaaayyyyy. Now we know what Random PP would do and wouldn't need. How this helps OP, I'm not sure...[/quote]

I was responding to the other random pp with kids who are 8 and 11.  I think most people can handle a long weekend (as opposed to a full week) in less than 5 star conditions.

Something for Op to consider anyway.[/quote]
