So, a cruise?

Terrarium, not a petri dish

So an all-inclusive resort?

[–] 200ok@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

More "lizard on a rock". Less "bandaid in the buffet".

[–] kubica@fedia.io 27 points 2 days ago

I don't really need vacations, what I need is to work like 2 days a week.

[–] iii@mander.xyz 26 points 2 days ago (2 children)

That's basically an all-in resort

Been once, was great, would totally do it again

[–] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A cruise then?

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

From what I hear those are very bad at that.

[–] NJSpradlin@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cruises are great as an all-inclusive, as far as I’ve found the two I’ve been on. Although they’re very clean, some people will complain about them being high spreaders of illness… which I haven’t experienced personally. Then there’s also the environmental impact. And if you have bad motion sickness, there’s that too.

But, ignoring those issues this fits the bill for the OP image. An alternative would be an all-inclusive resort.

Or just go to an all inclusive resort, which is like a cruise, but without the boat.

[–] NJSpradlin@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I mean, sure... That’s why I mentioned it as an alternative all-inclusive experience that also fits what OP was going for, as part of my original comment.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But did you remember to mention all inclusive resorts? You really should if you haven't already.

[–] NJSpradlin@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

What about all-inclusive hotels? Are those a thing? Or all-inclusive bed and breakfasts? Or all-inclusive Asian massage parlor (happy ending all-included)? All-inclusive airport lounges?

I'd live in a zoo if I got a solid gaming rig with broadband access as an engagement item.

Ah, streamer, then

Brb signing up for a nursing home

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

I really need to approach vacations like this from now on. Budgeting accordingly. But like, I tend to make myself do too much work, instead of just being.

[–] jumperalex@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

I feel seen

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

I couldn't agree with this more. I need a vacation.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago

No, no, once you're a parent you just want someone else to take care of your hellspawn for a day. I can handle making myself a frozen pizza tyvm.
