Had booked the "glitch" to SCL/Patagonia for a week, but given the amount of planning and other factors, doesn't look like we're going to be able to make that work. Additionally, neither of us are in the mood for a vacation that requires another vacation afterwards.
Alternatives, as we see them:
Saturday night to Thurs in LAX, stay at WABH, and eat ourselves into a stupor. Pros: No need to plan for food, relatively quick flight. Cons: weather is not hot enough to just sit by pool and relax, which is a primary goal in this trip.
Same timing (or *perhaps* through weekend to Sunday) in a single island of Hawaii, relax and do as little or as much activities as we want. Pros: Weather is phenomenal, can craft perfect activity/relax balanced vacation. Cons: requires longer flight, been to OGG and LIH already, requires food prep, and first 2 days are subject to jetlag (tho that may work somewhat to our advantage...)
MLE redux x3. Head to Conrad MLE in OWB. Pros: Great weather, absolutely no real prep needed at all except for food, great premium products. Cons: need kosher food, super long flights.
We're not going with kids.
At this point, I'm ranking them LAX, HNL, MLE. But I'm open to other ideas or a different ranking.
WWYD?
