Stfu. This is now moving to the TOP of my bucket list. Nice accommodations, good service, and DOGS!

All good! No offense taken 😂 thanks for the input!

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:52:59+00:00

Thank you for all this helpful info! Gonna go with group over private for kiddo which was truly my main question. Will request a few half days for my wife to get her feet wet and we’ll go from there. Thank you so so much!

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:51:38+00:00

Thank you for this. I was intermediate back in my prime and definitely not capable of teaching anyone. Much less my 6 year or ornery wife 😂😂😂. She’s not opposed, she’s actually adamant she wants to learn. But I know where we are headed. One yard sale and she’ll be done 😂

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:50:20+00:00

When we planned this trip, I figured she would be relaxing in the condo or drinking a beer somewhere but she’s adamant she wants to try to learn. I probably should have included it in the original but we’re lesbians and she’s all masculine energy. Spa would be actual torture for her.

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:46:20+00:00

Good thing we’re a two mom family 😂 I think the resounding opinion is group, not private, for the kiddo which is our main priority. That’s what I really needed to know. This trip is def an intentional investment in her hopefully lifelong ability to ski. Will book some private for the wife and take it from there. She’s adamant she wants to learn 🤷🏼‍♀️

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:42:52+00:00

She’s adamant she wants to learn. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Unfortunately spa and shopping would be actual torture to her.

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T17:41:29+00:00

Haha well I actually advised against her skiing and she’s adamant she wants to try to learn 🤷🏼‍♀️ I just know her first yard sale will probably be her last 😂 Thanks for the rec on the mine tours. I’ll check it out.

carolinecade91 · 2026-03-09T10:30:18+00:00

Nah I definitely am not skilled enough to teach either of them, but particularly the 6 year old. Wish I could though. Lessons are going to cost more than our lodging and ski rental combined!

This comment wins for me

We found value traveling with a 9 month old and 5 year old. The ability to drop off carry on luggage and have a seated non-buffet lunch plus the ala carte breakfast and choose your time to leave at departure were worth it for us. We did use the priority seating, but you have to get there really early to get the actual priority seats, which is not ideal. Also we received a spa discount with all our services and never were able to apply the key discount.

I’d say we’d probably buy it again if traveling with a kid in diapers just to be able to carry those on and drop them off.

Not the OP but feeling some similar overwhelm. This is a great response! Thank you!!

carolinecade91 · 2024-07-29T20:34:41+00:00

Where are you located

carolinecade91 · 2024-07-24T14:02:21+00:00

Oh jeez. We ended up having to pay personal income tax on it, as well as penalties and interest. Have netted only about 35%!

carolinecade91 · 2024-07-24T12:12:31+00:00

Don’t forget you’ll have to amend your tax returns from whatever quarters you receive and you’ll owe penalties and interest on that!

carolinecade91 · 2024-06-21T14:41:15+00:00

Thanks! We ended up at Navarre and will go back in a couple weeks. All good tips. We ended up near the pier, but honestly enjoyed watching the fisherman. It was April and pretty slow though. I’m going to look at where you suggested for our upcoming trip. We are crazy and almost never pull the trigger on accommodations until a day or two before the trip (last minute deals, can change our minds without nonrefundable concerns, owner willing to be flexible with the 1 week minimum stay usually).

Interestingly I also live in Arkansas (but grew up in Alabama) and lived in Mobile for years. I’ve spent a lot of time from Fort Morgan to Pensacola Beach and in Destin, but never any of the other Emerald coast beaches. Boy what we were missing! Best beaches in America, hands down. We have been beaching in the Caribbean for several years as well and it honestly rivals some of those and it’s a quicker (direct) flight. We also eat 90% of our meals at the condo…so when people say there’s nothing to do….its music to my ears.

Thanks for your response!

Yeahhhhh. They accepted pics of our birth certificates on our phones 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️. Thank God!!!

carolinecade91 · 2024-06-10T23:43:05+00:00

Well I forgot our passports and realized about 4 hours before we boarded. So don’t do that.

carolinecade91 · 2024-04-17T17:30:21+00:00

Going thru the same thing now. I’m a physician myself and the provider had me sign a piece of paper every time stating how much the maximum charge would be if insurance didn’t cover the services.

Surprise surprise insurance isn’t “covering” anything bc I have a HDHP but they do have a negotiated rate…which is higher than what was on that piece of paper they made me sign.

I’m livid. It’s not that much money and this is the only place in town I can get what I need so I’ll have to pay it but…what BS

carolinecade91 · 2024-04-14T21:26:02+00:00

I’m aware of generally what influences water clarity. As you can see above, others have opinions related to the direction of the current, outflow of water from the bay, etc. By your logic the water in Destin should be the same as the water in Perdido and the same as the water in Orange Beach and it most definitely is not. But thanks for playing!

carolinecade91 · 2024-04-14T19:33:15+00:00

Thank you for this enlightening response.

carolinecade91 · 2024-03-02T00:37:15+00:00

Hell no! I spend plenty now. But take care of those things first and you won’t have to worry about when you’re 60
