If you are planning for a holiday and it involves even one night’s stay out you need to plan on the accommodation wisely especially if you have wife and kids with you. Accommodation can make or mar your holidays and if it is a group holiday like 2 or more families together then you need to look at more than just the booking dates. Try and get a floor plan with pictures and look for specifics like the bedding configuration available, who will be sharing with whom, availability of adequate amenities (bathrooms, living area, seating arrangement etc), safety for kids like fenced pool and highways nearby. Also plan if you would be eating out all the time or if you would need a kitchen with at least basic amenities and sufficient place settings.

Whether it is one family or a group that’s going out everyone who will be joining the vacation should be involved in planning and decision making. That way the family holidays will be fair and agreeable and thus more enjoyable to all. Family members and friends can peruse options of destinations and accommodations on the internet, draw up a shortlist of possible choices and then everyone can discuss it face to face, sounding out ideas and airing concerns. Although it is a holiday, chores still need to be done; responsibilities still need to be managed. Load sharing is important so everyone can have an enjoyable time. Plan a rough roster like child supervision, meal preparation, cleaning up duties etc. If there are lots of kids around then you will need a bit more planning. Holidays with other families are when kids have a ball playing and socializing with each other. Plan in such a way that the enjoyment factor peaks high and boredom brawls are a minimum. If the holiday spot is a camping ground or a resort check whether there are games room and age-appropriate activities for the kids. If you are renting out a house ensure you have a rumpus area like backyard, pool and also other entertainment options (TV, PlayStation, and Internet). It would also be nice to have parks and beaches within walking distance to make impromptu outings when things start getting raucous indoors.

Holidaying together should be fun but when more than one family is involved, couples and families might need some space some time. So if the accommodation is being shared then ensure there are multiple living areas. Plan some activities so you and your family can have some time together or even plan taking turns minding the kids so that the other couple can have a romantic date night.
