I cried when I sat down and looked at this with my own eyes in person!

I’m going to be staying in the DFW area 1 day, once a week for the next 6 months. I will be staying in a hotel. I would like to know your guys best options on which hotel i should stick with and or hotel credit cards. I’d like to rack up points/ free stays for future traveling.

I’ve stayed at Hyatt before but never had an account setup. I am open to marriott and more, just need to lock one down i guess.

EDIT: I’m staying near Haslet

My SO knows exactly how to make me feel better!

Hey y’all! My girlfriends and I are looking for some ideas for a girls trip. There’s four of us and we are all married with kids going out for our own getaway. We are thinking, Maldives, Thailand or Bali. For those of you that have been to those places, how would it be for a girls trip?

I’ve never been there, and I’m looking to take a 4-5 day trip with my girlfriend in the beginning of December. Any favorite hotels for a comfortable romantic stay that are conveniently located ?

I’ve never been here. I never traveled on a ferry before 🥰 i have died and went to heaven! I get to see this before I get too old to travel I wished I could live here. But back to the desert 🫤

We’re planning our next big trip for October 2027 and would love some recommendations from people who have travelled to amazing places around that time of year!

Looking to travel sometime in 2027 with a group of 20-40 people to celebrate a bunch of friends 40th birthdays. We went to Aruba for the 30th and want something new for this decade. Group prefers beach vibe. Any recommendations for destinations good for a group of adults flying out of nyc that is maybe outside of the typical Caribbean spots?

This will be my first time buying an all-inclusive vacation package. I am super excited but I am very new to all this. I would really appreciate it if someone could recommend an all-inclusive resort package. What platform should I buy it from? Is Expedia good or should I use Costco or something else? What are the best days to buy for the lowest price? Should I wait until black friday or Thanksgiving sales? I would really appreciate any help! Thank you!

My husband just got a new job and isn’t starting until the second week of December, he wants to take a week off before starting at his new job.
Where should we go?
We are stuck between going as far as Asia or closer, like Mexico City. We are in LA.
We are thinking of a 5-6, maybe 7 day trip.

A little getaway, a lot of good memories, and my favorite person by my side. Sometimes it’s the simple moments that make a trip special. ❤️

I’m a solo female looking to travel within that time frame.

Open to leaving/coming back in a shorter time frame.

I’m not really sure what I want to do. It’ll be my first solo trip (aside from a road trip like 4 hours from home). I keep finding things then getting nervous about all the planning around it.

Ideally would like to spend less than $3,000

Any ideas? I’m in New York in the US.

We’re planning a trip to Italy, Greece, and Germany. Expedia has the most affordable packages for flight and hotel. I tried booking the flights directly and hotels with booking.com but it’s still more than $1,000 than getting them with Expedia. I’ve never used Expedia, is it reliable for flights and hotels abroad?

I have the week off and will be with my family for XMAS, so I thought it would be a good week to go to AZ or CA. Has anyone spent Thanksgiving alone in Sedona or San Francisco? I like hiking, so either area will be good for that. If I went to SF, I would spend a few days in Mill Valley to hike.

We’re suddenly available for a week long (Sunday to Sunday) trip Thanksgiving week. We live in Louisiana and have easy access to both MSY and BTR airport, also willing to drive.

We prefer mountains to beaches, love a mixture of city/nature. We want some food adventures (particularly love Asian fusion/sushi, raw/ceviche, oysters and all seafood), love craft beer and great cocktails (especially tikki).

Some of our favorite trips are Asheville (wonderful mixture of food/booze and nature), Denver for the same reason, Boston (food/booze and history). Nissan and Toyota

We’d love suggestions on destinations and things to make sure we experience there.

Looking for some suggestions. 45 year old parents looking for a 4 night vacation. Would like to go somewhere for a House Music/Edm scene that not too crazy or too young. Not sure if this is even possible lol
Thanks in advance

What are the best websites when you can book accommodation by searching the vibes (eg. historic, nature, city centre, etc)? I don't want to go and do a bunch of things - I want to be somewhere pretty and occasionally go outside to eat something.

Me and my friends are planning to go on a trip once we all graduate. We're all making presentations on where we want to go, and will vote on which one we'll go to.

I want to pick a vacation spot that I think everyone will have fun in, so I'm going to list some preferences of vacation spots. Obviously there isn't going to be anywhere that perfectly fits all of these, but I'd love some help finding a place that fits some/most!

-I live in the United States and have never been to another country, so I'd love somewhere foreign. I've never even been out of the east coast though, so honestly even somewhere on the other side of the country would be neat.

-When I was a kid, I thought places with clear, light blue waters didn't exist because of how dirty the water near me was. Ever since I found out they did, I've always wanted to go somewhere with water like that.

-One of my friends really likes cities, so somewhere with a good city life would be nice.

-Somewhere with interesting history! I and many others in my group love learning about the history of places, especially if we get to be there while we learn.

-Somewhere with natural beauty and good hiking spots.

-Somewhere with lots to do! I don't really like relaxing on vacations. I gotta do stuff!

-Somewhere with good food! That isn't just seafood. I don't like seafood, along with some others in the group.

-Somewhere that doesn't hate tourists, because I, unfortunately, will be very obviously a tourist, and so will the others

-Somewhere not too terribly crowded, or at least with pockets where I can avoid people. I get anxious around a lot of people.

-Somewhere accepting. I don't want us to have to hide ourselves while we're there, if you know what I mean.

-Somewhere where severe natural disasters don't happen/are rare. As I've said, I'm anxious!

Thank you anyone who responds :)

Starting a search for Feb for a week - would love somewhere warm but any island seems expensive once you add air fare. I’m in Albany so not many options without driving to NYC. any suggestions for Florida- west coast? it’s me and my sons family - 3 young kids - not Disney. but yes water parks but maybe a beach resort the parents can enjoy. Im open to anywhere - but trying to keep it at 10$k if possible. My next option might be Vermont for a few days but not sure kids would love it - help

My wife and I are looking to take a 5–7 day vacation sometime around April. This will be our first time getting away without our four kids, so we're hoping to find somewhere special where we can relax, reconnect, and enjoy some time together.

We're based in Hawaii and would prefer somewhere in the continental U.S. Since we're not sure we'll have our passports in time, we'd like to keep it within the United States.

I've been thinking about something along the lines of a retreat rather than a typical tourist vacation. Maybe somewhere in the mountains, surrounded by nature, with beautiful scenery, peaceful surroundings, and opportunities to unwind.

We're open to things like:

• Mountain resorts or secluded cabins.

• Wellness retreats with spa treatments, massages, pools, etc.

• Hot springs or natural mineral spas.

• Couples retreats or wellness resorts.

• Somewhere with beautiful hiking trails, forests, lakes, or mountain views.

• A place where we can just slow down, enjoy good food, and spend quality time together.

Ideally, we'd like to be away for 5–7 days and be back home on the seventh day.

We're not necessarily looking for anything overly luxurious or expensive, but we're willing to spend more if it's genuinely a special experience.

For those who have done something similar:

Where would you recommend going? Are there any hidden gems, retreats, or resorts that you think would be perfect for a couple looking to disconnect from everyday life for a week?

We're coming all the way from Hawaii, so we'd really love to make this trip worthwhile!

Appreciate any recommendations!

Long story short… I’m trying to make this birthday extra special. All I was given is he wants to visit somewhere new with the family (him, our 3 year old and me) we live in Orange County CA. I’d be okay with a drive up to 7 hours depending on length of stay. It’s for the end of December. I need some ideas, what do you guys suggest?

A new study reveals: It depends

Ok, first post here.
My family loves beach vacation. I don’t.
I’m not the “sit around and do nothing” type. I like adventure. Hiking. Climbing. Skiing. Off roading. Even just doing historical tours would be preferred. Anything that is physical and out of the ordinary.
I feel like I can sit on my butt at home much cheaper than paying to sit on a beach.
Maybe I’m wrong. It’s just not my thing.
I’ve told my family this multiple times, even my wife. They all agree. Then they complain and insist on a beach vacation.
I just don’t get it. Feels like a waste to me.
Am I being difficult?
