Hubby is about to hit his deadline for work and just wanted to get a hotel with a pool and hot tub. The last hotel we got in Asheville was filled with a million kids and really loud. Anyone know of a hotel where the working professionals go to get away? Don't care much about price. Thanks

I have a friend from NYC who is very fancy and wants to come visit me and a few other local friends. She will only stay in top tier hotels. Must have room service.

She did find the Carolina Inn interesting when she looked at it online but I don’t know how it is but it’s also a little far from some of her friends in Rocky Mount.

Any suggestions?

ETA…I think we found out winners: Umstead or Renaissance. Thank you!

I’m searching for recommendations for family friendly resorts that are also ‘fancy’. My husband is a very type A, anxious guy who has trouble relaxing so I’m hoping to find somewhere that takes care of everything. All inclusive is not necessary. Some must haves:

• family suite, multi bedroom or villa type accommodation preferred.

• direct flights from Charlotte, North Carolina or 6-8 hour drive from there.

• excellent food is a must. We like to eat.

• kids age range from toddler to teen. They love the outdoors and nature.

• we do not enjoy large cities or places with tons of people and crowds.

Where we have visited lately that we loved:

• Sugar Beach Viceroy, St Lucia. Amazing private villas. Excellent service, butlers, etc made it possible for husband to relax. Food was good with lots of restaurant options. Kids enjoyed the beach, snorkeling, and chocolate making. We are already planning to return but id love to find more places like this in other places!

• High Hampton Resort, North Carolina. Driving distance, multi-room and cabin type accommodations. Excellent food. Kids enjoyed hiking, lake, pool, games. Debating going back here or visiting sister property, Blackberry Farm (worth the extra drive?).

• Biltmore Estate, North Carolina. Similar pros to above but closer and we stay here often. Always enjoyable.

• Kiawah Island, South Carolina. We love the Sanctuary and all the surrounding restaurants. Kids love the beach, bike riding, all the nature. Only con is we usually rent a home/villa so I spend a good bit of vacation cooking, cleaning, etc. but worth it for a beautiful location within driving distance.

• England and France. Made trips last year with my older kids, mainly to visit family. Would need to change how I plan it to entice the husband and to be completely honest, an overnight flight with a toddler sounds terrifying. I love Europe though so maybe if I could make it NICE and kid friendly…

Open to any and all suggestions. Thank you!

I'm looking to stay at the beach for 3-4 nights and I struggle to find the right accomodations. It's just two of us so I don't want to spend thousands to rent a whole house for a week, but still want something private and close to the beach. We usually stay at Sunset Inn which is the perfect spot, small, quiet inn a couple blocks from the beach. Looking for a similar vibe at any other quiet beach. Any suggestions?

Edit: Not looking for this summer! Maybe later in the fall or ideas for next year. Haven't had great luck with AirBnB because a lot of properties have week long minimum stays or seem to cater to large families. But also open to smaller cottage suggestions if you know of any! Looking in the range of $300ish/night or less.

Im currently homeless living in a storage unit and soon to get unemployment. Im looking to find the best place to stay at, preferably a week at a time as inexpensive as possible. I do have job starting soon, but not a guaranteed 40hrs. On the side i pick up gigs where I can.

Im looking for a place with a kitchenette or at least somewhere to cook nearby. Same with laundry. Going through booking, the cheapest places have all bad reviews which typically is smell, customer service or pests. The latter I prefer to avoid. Also during my research, i discovered some places are picky about who stays based on their current address. Because of this, im hesitate on telling anyone I am homeless.

I dont care where in the city it is as long as its along a bus stop or a few minute walk from one. Currently im stay at a place that ranges from $50-$70 any given day. Its a 10min walk from the bus stop, but no kitchen or laundry. Furthermore, a week stay obviously would be expensive. I dont exactly have a budget in mind but I am trying to stretch my money pit so i can at least go out to eat once in a while.

I would post in r/charlotte but they would just remove it or at the very least, I would get no help as the majority of the commenters arent helpful to say the least.

The wife and I are looking for a small weekend getaway and would like a small, quaint, boutique hotel or bed and breakfast. Preferably in a small town with a few restaurants and things to do.

Thanks!!
