Toddler Sleeping Arrangements in 1 Bedroom Villa

[DizMomAndWife]

We've got an upcoming reservation at BLT in a 1 bedroom villa. Our original plan was to put toddler rails on the pull out couch for our 3 year old, and put the 1 year old in the pack-and-play, also in the living room. After traveling for Thanksgiving, I'm not sure that's still a smart option. Our 3 year old doesn't sleep well in a room by herself when we're traveling, apparently.

Our new, tentative, plan is to keep the 1 year old in the living room, and try to move the pullout chair from the living room to the bedroom, for the 3 year old.

Has anyone done this? Is it even possible? Any other suggestions? She's too big to sleep in a pack and play.

TIA!

The sleeper chair is too big to move through the doorway and DVD requests that furniture not be moved from room to room.

I would bring an air mattress or sleeping bag for the toddler. I understand that the sleeper chairs are extremely heavy and difficult to move.

The BLT pull-out chair is pretty large. I don't think it would fit in the bedroom. You *might* be able to move it into the hallway just outside the bedroom (depending on how your room is configured) (although it would totally block the bedroom door) so she would at least feel nearby you and could probably see you.

IDK about the 3 yo but the closet in the master bedroom is perfect for the 1 yo

You cannot move the chair. It is both too heavy and it will not fit through the door.

We had an issue like this when our kids were young and traveling. We brought one of those pop up tents with us and a sleeping bag. Worked out perfectly!

I'm thinking a sleeping bag may be a good bet! I may try to make her a small bed out of couch cushions. We'll see!
Thanks for your replies!

When our twins were that age we had a little inflatable mattress that had a crib size area surrounded by a lip so they can't roll out. So easy and convenient, though it would take a little suitcase space up. Uses a crib sheet. At five they still use it when we have company, though luckily they sleep great in hotels now. The brand is Shrunks.
