Taking a trip with extended family can be a great way to make memories.
This couple, for example, got a surprise from their SIL about accommodation.
Or they could use the logic of an all-inclusiveresort.
Adults pay the full rate, kids get half-price.
But what about the fact that the rooms are not identical?
However the family decides to share costs, they should talk about it all in advance.
Preferably, a few months in advance.
A much easier, hassle-free option is to book hotel rooms.
Travel blogger Nicolehas three rulesfor a stress-free time with extended family during vacation.
First and foremost, according to her, people should plan as much of the trip as they can.
Accommodation, how long everyone will be staying, what activities families plan to partake in.
Since in this story, there is one kid among five people, their wishes might drastically differ.
And the SIL with her boyfriend and daughter might want something more active like zip lining.
That doesnt mean that families shouldnt vacation together if their plans for the vacation dont align.
Nicoles second rule is to remember to give everyone space.
This is aholidayfor everyone.
Lastly, remember that its a vacation and everyone wants to chill out and have fun.
Compromise instead of causing drama about minor details.
If youre not happy with the choice of restaurant today, then agree that youll be picking tomorrow.
You are completely justified, many commenters said, siding with the couple
Thanks!
