On this question you can get all sorts of responses.

However, in europe, the places submerged with yidden for instances are always relatively expensive places.

So yes, if its the same type of place/price/etc I guess you shouldn't avoid going to a place with a minyan.

I spoke with a few Rabbanim, and while it's true that if there is no minyan within a certain distance, you may not be m'chuyav to get to one, but they would not give me a heter to go on vacation to such a place. As one of them said, "It's one thing to go there on business, but to go on vacation, when there are so many places to go to that have minyan, I can't give you a heter".

i believe r' shmuel kaminetzky holds its fine. and from what i remember, its a psak of his fathers

omg - what about not bothering to walk half a block to 770 to get a minyan?!?!?
but if i either way am not going to daven with a minyan, guess i can take vacation

I would never go on vacation somewhere that had a minyan. I can't think of anything worse. Maybe I would go there on business.

trying to gauge if it's possible to go to such a place without having someone else’s wife's bathing suit in your face.

you can find a place where one is allowed to go in their birthday suit. then you won't have the issue of having bathing suits in your face

Can you imagine what this thread would look like in today's DDF. I shudder to think. It would have been moved to JS so fast...

Just to add to the ancient discussion, IIRC, there is an issue of a woman swimming with men, even if she's fully covered up.
Maybe an idea of being noheg kalus rosh with other men, I have no idea.
But I remember hearing or reading something along those lines.

Another thing I always wondered, is how the women back in the day went to the mikve in the ocean or river.
