We'll typically take a ball. Typically something small or that I can blow up.

When we got to Hawaii we bring our snorkel gear as we use the kit almost everyday for a little bit. It just doesn't make sense cost wise to rent 4 sets for a week.

We have also found that many resorts have a take one/leave one toy basket.

Bringing beach toys is crazy! What in the world are you thinking! If your staying in a villa, chances are that the place will have tons of left over toys from past guests. Pretty typical.

Cups and spoons from the hotel are just as good for sand play as purchased toys, get creative!

+1! Travel light and borrow/rent anything you "need" when you get there.

Nothing, you don't need equipment to splash in the water, invent games, and make sandcastles.

Well if it's not inflated, it should be easy to bring rafts or other inflatables, right? They just fold down. Buckets, shovels etc, I would buy there. Those are bulky.

Nothing. If my kids can't figure out how to play without toys then they are idiots and I am a terrible parent for not helping them develop their creativity.

We buy stuff when we get there. All hotel gift shops will have it, and if you're making a grocery run at some point anyway than you can have a bigger selection. Yeah, it might be a bit more. But simplicity is worth it.

My friend just recommended that we take floating toys like rafts. We usually only take buckets and a shovel. Toys are bulky. Our vacation is a nice resort with a beach and pool with no fancy activities for the kids. Wondering if we should bring more stuff.
