“I’m going to wake up when I want, drink hot coffee, eat whatever at whatever restaurant without having to worry whether they have a kids’ menu.” The ultimate dream vacation for many people is now a getaway with just their friends.
. Many people are meeting with far-flung buddies from around the country that they haven’t seen since pre-Covid times.
At Mission Point Resort in Mackinac Island, Mich., so many big groups of friends have been staying at the hotel this summer that the property reconfigured its three restaurants, adding long tables normally used for buffets, says Liz Ware, the resort’s vice president of sales and marketing.Abercrombie & Kent, which operates high-end guided trips and safaris, says that during the first two years of the pandemic, its travelers were almost all couples and families.
“People are now reconnecting with the friends you only saw on Zoom the last couple of years,” says Mr. Piegza. Abercrombie & Kent’s Ms. Sherer advises people to discuss potential conflict points in advance, such as which meals and other activities will be done as a large group versus independently. Ms. Sherer says she has seen more problems arise over shopping—how often to do it and for how long—than anything else.Photo:Chuck Fry, a 63-year-old housing developer in Orange County, Calif., with two adult children, often does skiing and cycling trips with friends.
