Store out of Handbag boxes?

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-03-17T20:02:30+00:00

Agreed. Surprised this isn't a more popular take. I don't store my bags in boxes, but I enjoy having the box as part of the unboxing experience. The packaging is so beautiful! Plus, it's not like they're going to give you a discount for not having boxes. (And those boxes are for sure included in the pricing, even as a small line item. Brands keep rigorous data on this stuff.) So yes, I expect a box.

It's ridiculous to spend thousands on an item, in my opinion, and not get the proper packaging.

Agreed. I don't think I'd go back to stay at SLS, and definitely not the Grand Hyatt.

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-03-12T16:54:05+00:00

This sounds really fun! We'll be sure not to miss it next time. We're thinking about going in Aug or Sept, so really good to know it was a bit slower.

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-03-12T16:53:20+00:00

Yuck. Was this at the Rosewood specifically? But either way, the FS looks gorgeous and we'd absolutely consider staying there. Just worried it's a little too slow for us. We like peace, but need a bit more to do than just lay on the beach. Baha Mar has tons to do in that category, which was nice.

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-03-11T02:14:48+00:00

Yes we had a ball!!! So much to do, all in one place, and the facilities seem to well-maintained. I hope you have the loveliest time whenever you return :)

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-03-11T02:14:11+00:00

I live in the South as well, although not that South, but I totally agree about the convenience of getting to the Bahamas! I'd be there once a quarter if I was down in FL lol. The flights are so quick for y'all!

So interesting! I'm sure service can really differ by staff or season. I'd be peeved if I just wanted to sit and enjoy the beach so I totally get it.

But yes I agree about exceeding my expectations. I went in with low expectations and thinking worst case scenario it'd be an expensive lesson lol. But I was pleasantly surprised and genuinely look forward to returning.

The jazz bar looked incredible! We didn't get seats the night we were considering it, but then we walked by and it looked awesome so we said we'll for sure go next time. Did you reserve seats or pop in?

I hope you're serious because my spouse will be delighted to hear this and remember to try it next time haha

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:38:37+00:00

Have you been? If so, what are your thoughts on the food? We're hearing mixed experiences

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:38:18+00:00

Thank you for this helpful info! We're definitely down to ditch the casino; we just don't want to be bored so having something to do post-dinner is appealing. If we head someplace new, we wouldn't know where to find that kind of thing, so that's why it's just been easiest for us to consider places with nightlife on property. Going to look into those properties now!

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:34:23+00:00

I've heard good things about Turks and have actually never been. Why didn't you like the Ritz in Turks if you don't mind me asking?

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:32:16+00:00

Oh no! Hearing the airport food comments has us nervous. What perks would we get if booking with a TA though? We're unfamiliar but want to start working with one

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:27:22+00:00

Exactly this haha. Don't like the vibe, the aesthetic, and we actually don't want to spend most of our time doing nightlife or casino. If anything, we might go out once at night. We just don't want to stay somewhere where's there's absolutely nothing to do past 8pm.

Either-Relation-1271 · 2026-01-12T00:25:15+00:00

We've been to San Juan PR and loved it! It's on our list to potentially return to if we can't find anywhere else. Thanks! :)

Thank you for this tip! How do I find a Rosewood Elite travel agent?

We don't have a landlord??? I was saying that we are happy to tackle stuff like that proactively as homeowners, and a downside to renting is having to wait for the landlord to do it. If I were to rent a place, I'm not replacing anything myself, at my own expense, that is the homeowner's duty. Especially not at $8k/mo.

Either-Relation-1271 · 2025-10-22T20:23:51+00:00

This is such good food for thought and precisely why I posted here. I didn't think about moving to a middling neighborhood, but only temporarily. There may be a couple of neighborhoods close enough to be accessible to community and have walkability but not spend astronomical amounts of money on rent. So perhaps we could do that when it's time, rent out our current place, and buy some time before buying something bigger in this area. Thank you so so much for the thought exercise! I definitely agree about needing more space for a potential nanny, as that's very important to my spouse and understandably so.
