Cruises are the easiest. You literally don’t need to worry about dinner reservations, activities, etc.
But they are also super trashy.
Sigh.
No, cruises are not super trashy.
Go price out a spring break cruise on Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, etc. leaving from Florida and you’ll see how expensive it is. Hint: not cheap to fly to FL, stay in a local hotel, then cruise for a week…plus excursions.
I was a reluctant cruiser who quickly discovered how relaxing a cruise is. Sitting on a lounge chair in a quiet area while the kids go do other activities is bliss. Not having to worry about getting dinner reservations in touristy cities or islands is Heaven. Hitting 3 or 4 Caribbean islands and taking a cab to a quiet beach is awesome.
There’s nothing trashy about it.
Plus: I love the live music. Royal Caribbean has different kinds of live music all over their ships day and night. It’s fun.
I see the loads of obese people those ships disgorge. It’s disgusting. Plan your own trips and make your own experiences. Cruising is the Applebee’s of travel, and a true race to the bottom (not to mention an environmental nightmare).
There are overweight people everywhere…including first class seats on planes and fancy hotels.
When I cruise, I see people running on the track and exercising in the gym. I see lots of fit families.
Go on a Virgin cruise and it’s all hardbodies and frou frou vegan health food.
Honestly, the one sweeping generalization that aptly describes cruisers is this: they are people who like to have fun and don’t judge others. There’s a real friendliness among cruisers.
You will not convince me that vacationing with thousands of other people, having the same experiences, and feeding from the same trough is anything other than the epitome of low class trash.
This is the cringiest thing I've read on this site in a while. Kudos to you, that's not easy.
Why? Because you enjoy cruising?
Haven't actually been on a cruise. But it feels like the height of tackiness to disparage someone else's good time. Unless, of course, your idea of a good time is posting salty nonsense on the internet, in which case, mea culpa.

We went to Puerto Rico with friends. Direct flights both ways. Stayed at the Embassy Suites. Friends with kids same age as my only made it fun because my kid had a playmate built in. I liked going with friends but not all sharing a house, we had our own space to retreat to.
The beach wasn’t great imo but the kids loved it, there were rocks to climb on, and trees to climb on and try and knock coconuts down from.

Wow, strong reaction! In the meantime, we’re still waiting OP. Tell us about your last fun trip, disastrous trip, or just admit you have never been anywhere and lack imagination. Any of the three will be fine, thank you.
NP here. You are rude. People come to this forum for travel ideas/info/advice. OP owes you nothing, and certainly not her travel stories.

Skiing in CO.
Minimal packing because all we need are comfy/workout type clothing. I don't have to pack makeup or anything nice to wear.
Everyone is entertained by skiing all day and so exhausted by the endo the the day we just want to chill, hit the hot tub, grab dinner, and go to bed early.

Which all-inclusive? I'm scared to do something like that due to cost and it turning out it wasn't a good choice.
So you want easy AND cheap.
Go somewhere in Florida. I like St. Pete beach and Naples.

Drove to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. 7-ish hour drive, zero traffic. We rented an air bnb for the week and split the days between mini golf, dinner shows, and hiking. It was very simple, nothing had to be planned more than a few hours in advance.
