What is most important in choosing a vacation?
 

The location? The weather? The amenities (shopping, golf, beach)? The farhtest possible place away from in laws? Price? Or is it a combo affair?

For us, it has been - what stage of life are we in ? When the kids were small, it was road trips, keeping a lookout for parks. Elementary school age- it was short flights and what kind of pool do they have. When our youngest was 12, we took on Europe.<BR>Now it's a mix of active vacations, and a few getaways just for Dad and Mom.

TJC, I agree with you 100%

What is important to us is getting away from cities, traffic and people. We enjoy nature and it's scenic wonders.<BR><BR>Utahtea

For us it is a combination of elements. We live in the Northeast. In winter WARM is what we are seeking, a beautiful beach to thaw out on. It is wonderful going to the Caribbean when it is winter in our home town. A good price also plays an important role. Some history, exploring and diverse activities besides just laying on a beach are also great to throw in. I am not much into repeating a place I have been to previously, even if I liked it we like to try a different destination.

Warm weather!!!

Toppin this baby to the top!!!

Me! Me! Me! I am the most important aspect of choosing a vacation! It's all about me! Me Me Me!<BR><BR>If I'm happy, we're all happy, if I'm miserable so is everyone else!

For me, it's how much value I'm getting for my vacation dollar. I like to get as far away and stay in as nice a place as I can within my budget. Also, places that aren't overrun with other tourists, places that are not the usual vacation destinations are important to me.

Clean Rooms and resonable rates.

A comfortable bed and reliable water pressure and temperature.
