This would be for 7 days hotel not Airbnb/vrbo.


Most hotels/motels have a laundry room. Wash them with some other clothes or hotel towels.

The easiest system for me is to put a little hotel shampoo on the swimsuit while I’m taking a shower and just quickly wash and rinse the suit. Then hang anywhere to dry.

No - I am finding all of this fascinating and wondering if all these people are so over the top high maintenance as to make me look laissez faire or if I missed some crucial part of an education about the importance of washing a suit



I would feel dirty re-wearing a suit that has had discharge in it for example, without washing it some sort of way with soap and water. It’s like underwear to me, I don’t re-wear them. You’re using the restroom, wiping, putting the swim suit back on just the same.


And I feel dirty from reading this post.


+100. So funny!

But Previous PP is right. It’s like wearing an underwear all day and then just rinsing it and wearing it again the next day. Gross!

Yup. For a week vacation I bring two suits just to alternate to a dry one from day to day, but no "washing" until I get home and somehow I have lived to tell the tale.

There's a difference between wearing a swimsuit all day as underwear versus wearing one for a 45 minute workout and changing straight back into regular clothes.

The ocean is not chlorinated. There’s nothing killing germs in the ocean water.

I take two bathing suits, and just have one of them hanging to dry at any given time. I don’t bother to wash them. I suppose if I were going to be swimming or at the beach more than a few days I would. If I need to get sand out, I just rinse them.
