What Type Of Accommodation Best Suits Your Family?

Mar 31, 2023

When it comes to planning a family vacation, one of the most important aspects is choosing the right type of accommodation. The type of accommodation you choose can greatly affect your family's overall experience, so it's essential to make the right choice to ensure everyone has a comfortable and enjoyable stay. In this blog post, we'll explore common types of accommodation and help you decide which one is best for your family.

Hotel & Resorts


Hotels and resorts are a popular choice for families as they offer a wide range of amenities and services that cater to all ages. Most hotels have swimming pools, kids clubs and a range of activities, making it easy to keep the whole family entertained. The rooms in hotels are usually well-equipped and staff are on hand to help with anything you need.


However, hotels can be quite expensive, especially during peak season and the rooms can be small and cramped for larger families; often larger families are required to book multiple rooms due to hotel policies or required bed space. Plus, eating out every day can quickly add up, making it an expensive option overall.

Holiday Rentals


Holiday rentals are a great option for families looking for a more affordable and spacious accommodation option. You can rent a house or an apartment and have your own space to relax and unwind after a busy day of exploring. Most holiday rentals come equipped with a kitchen, which means you can cook your meals and save money on eating out. You'll also have more privacy and can set your own schedule.

 

However, the downside of holiday rentals is that you won't have access to the same amenities and services as you would in a hotel. You'll also be responsible for cleaning up after yourself, which can be a bit of a hassle on vacation for those wanting to relax. 

House/Room Exchanges


Another option to consider is a house or room exchange. This is where you exchange your residence with another family in a different location, giving you the opportunity to experience life like a local. House and room exchanges are becoming more popular, and there are now many websites where you can find families to exchange with.

 

The benefit of house or room exchanges is that you'll save money on accommodation costs and have a more authentic experience of the destination. However, it's essential to find the right family to exchange with and make sure you're both on the same page regarding expectations and rules.
