I used to go on all tropical vacations.
I would pick an island, a beach and a classy condo to stay in for a week.
My vacation consisted of drinking, laying out and maybe walking along the beach. The main concern when renting a condo was proximity to the water, quality AC and a decent bed. I knew I would get sunburned at least one day of the trip, so having decent cooling was necessary. It was always nice going back after a hot day and able to sleep in the cold air conditioning. Now I have changed how I like to do vacations. I am all about seeing new places, experiencing culture and exploring. Typically my vacation destinations are cold places. The weather never gets above 50 degrees when I am there. I travel all over the place too in order to experience as much as the country offers. My biggest concern with each accommodation has now been the heating equipment. Traveling further overseas is more expensive, so sometimes I have to cheap out on the room. I always pay for it in terms of heating. The cheaper rooms only have a small radiator used for heating that I can’t control. The better rooms give me a ductless heater with a wall mounted thermostat that I can control. That is a way better situation. Sometimes the places crank the heating like we do AC in the movie theater. I get where I sweat to death all night long and wish I could open a window. Then any store, bar or shop I go into does the same thing.
