[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have two young kids and only stay in 5 star hotels/resorts. I don't want to stay at some rickety beach house, to be honest. If I'm going on vacation, I want to ENJOY that vacation. [/quote]

Short version: "I'm an insufferable princess!"[/quote]

ehh I'm not high maintenance but I feel similarly. If I have to cook or clean or do laundry it's not a vacation, it's a trip. I dislike beach houses.[/quote]

There's a big difference between "rickety beach house" and "only 5-star resorts" so PP comes off as clueless and snotty. You don't have to choose only 5-star in order to not cook or do laundry.

I say this as someone who's had a great time at some very exclusive resorts and also at non-rickety beach houses. The amount of enjoyment I get is usually more based on who I'm with and what we're doing (agree on the no/not much cooking and cleaning!)[/quote]

NP here.  But that is you. What feels like a vacation to different people is different and that is okay.  Everyone doesn't have to want to vacation like you do or OP does.  It's their choice to vacation how they want and your choice to vacation as you want.  You may think that makes them an insufferable princess but I am sure they could use some less than flattering terms about you as well.  Or we could all just accept that different people like different things and that is okay.[/quote]
