[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would much rather do a resort than a cruise. [/quote]

OP here, which brand/location would you recommend for about 1 week on a 10K budget? I was thinking cruises are more affordable.  [/quote]

Cruises are more affordable if you factor in the cost of activities and amenities and they are cheaper than most AI options.  But PP is right that the pools are terrible so if you like to idea of swimming around a pool with your toddler and your parents enjoying that cuteness, it won’t happen in a cruise.
We really like the marriot vacation club properties because they have 2 bedroom units with kitchens but also have on site restaurants and bars and really nice pools.  The grande ocean in Hilton head is really nice.  The one in Aruba is also nice and has a lazy river.  I haven’t been to the others.  You won’t get shoes and such at a place like that and the restaUrants are not as convenient or with choices as plentiful as a cruise.  But you can buy weeks from owners for $2-5K on redweek, or book through the marriot website for more like !5k-10K.  A lot depends on the specific week and timing.  Since you have a toddler it would save you a lot on either resort or cruise to go during school weeks.  We pay through the nose now to travel on school breaks.[/quote]
