I am a sims fan and I enjoyed this one too. My favorites are Seasons and Pets. But this adds going on vacations and building vacation houses etc. Secondlife is a sims like internet game, so if you enjoys sims try secondlife too.

I have a very mixed review about this game.

This game is a really fun game. It is really fun to send your sims on exotic vacations. I also really like the sauna. The mountain getaway is very realistic but when you go camping, you should have to bring your own tent. I like the new outfits that come with bon voyage. I especially like the lays in everyday clothing and the sauna towel in underwear. This game comes with lots of cool objects like the masage table and the hotel check in desk. I am very happy that with this new expansion pack, they have added real estate so your sims can buy beach houses.

Lately I have been having some problems with this program. It slows down the loading of the sims 2 and it comes up with errors like "This application has crashed and needs to terminate." It also freezes a lot in create a family mode and then you lose your family-in-process. This game should also allow sims to go on longer vacations.
This game is very enjoyable and I suggest that you get it. You probably will not have the same problems as I have.

Ah, nothing like a nice vacation. A chance to get away from the world, see new places, meet new people and have a great time! Why when I was growing up one of my favorite movies was National Lampoon's Vacation (20th Anniversary Special Edition), and if there's one thing I learned from that, it's this: leave the kids at home.

Thankfully EA takes that lesson to heart with this fine expansion pack. Yes, your Sims get to take a nice bacation, but the kids stay back at the house, out of your hair!

You get to pick from three vacation spots: the mountains, an island paradise and an Asian-themed place. While there, you can learn new things (like the hula and fire-dancing), eat new foods (sushi!), and meet new people! You'll also get to go on various tours and adventures, plus spend huge amounts of money, and when you're done, if all goes well, your Sims will return to their real lives feeling rejuvinated and alive! If all goes poorly, well... yeah. Life will suck for them.

This is perhaps one of the most fun expansion packs out there. Far more enjoyable than The Sims 2: Open for Business Expansion Pack, which I didn't really care for. The rewards your Sims can get are tangible and you'll have lots of fun earning them! The only downside to the game? Well, you can't save while on vacation. Otherwise, it's great fun! Worth every simolean you spend on it!

I enjoy this EP but if you have low systems specs, do not get it. It also has the securom thingie that seems to ruin some peoples computers, I think mostly older comps but some newer ones too. I have had no problems. Only game glitches. Anyway...

This EP takes my simmies away from the every day life of work, school, studying and etc. College students can even go on vacation! I love for them to stay in hotels and especially the vacation homes that one can purchase. It's fun because I can at least change up the decor' to my liking. Add and take away, ya know.(maxis decor isnt always pretty). lol

Playing in the sand, buying souveniers/jewelery, combing the beach, playing on the pirate ship, meeting new people, learning dances, gestures, songs, and etc are a plus.

I think this EP is good just for extra things to do. I'm sure there's more, but my mind has ran a blank.

We just love this they can even buy vacation homes. The Sims can make friends here, order room service, etc... SOOO fun.
