Laundry on solo trip?

[Simba's Mom]

Do you do laundry on a solo trip if you're there for, say, 10 nights? I really don't like the idea of packing clothes for that many days, so a couple years ago, staying that long, I planned to do laundry half way thru. Well, for only one person, I didn't even have enough to fill the washing machine! It seemed kind of pointless to take that much time to use a washer and dryer for that little. So last year, I tried just washing out a couple things in my room at night and hanging it to dry. Well, I must have done something wrong because whether it was the Florida water or what, my clothes always came out stiff as cardboard. I really don't want to pack 10 days worth of clothes, what do you all do?

I've done laundry before espically the one time I had the one bed room vacation home which had the washer in the room. I just ran a small load half way through the vacation. This time I'm staying in a studio so I might not do laundry but I like to pack light so doing laundry is cheaper then taking a bigger bag and paying extra $ on the flight.

Good excuse to buy more clothes while you're there!

You are staying in the villas. . .whether or not you stay in a 1 br or a Studio, you still have access to free laundry. I say wash. I am a firm believer in that if you have to pack 20 outfits plus a couple extras and a swimsuit or two, you need to do laundry somewhere so that you don't deal with this.

boy you are good.

have to wash every 5 days if not more often. that is 5 shorts & 9 t-shirts plus unders (generally 10) and socks - it does make a load.

take a break around 10 am (11 am) and before I go back to the parks at night - change t-shirts and underwear.
