Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
I wont do it. Im pretty hardcore at home and our vacays are MAYBE once a year, so I figure three - seven days a year with spoises I can get a pass on. Its too much with five to do. WAY too much.

Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
couple days, we cloth diaper. But our 'vacations' have been 5-6 day driving trips to get from MS to ID and then ID to TX, so we used sposies. There was no guarantee that our hotels would have washers and I hang dry, which wasn't an option either.
If I was going to one place to stay for many days and it had a washer, then I'd probably stick with cloth. Unless it was a person's house, because I don't want to intrude in that fashion.

Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
We have done overnight trips, week long trips in hotels and 2-3 week international trips to Australia and New Zealand, all using cloth, never a single disposable used. With family it's easy, in a hotel there is usually washing machines or a laundromat nearby and when we travel internationally we rent holiday homes w/ washing machines (way cheaper and bigger than hotel rooms too!)

Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
3 days or less - I just bring my whole stash and wash when we get home.
More than 3 day trips - if we are going to visit family then I bring cloth and wash there, which works out just fine. But if we are going to be in a hotel for that long, then I just do sposies.

Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
We just drove cross country for 2 weeks. We used cloth up until the last few days (I got norovirus and couldn't stand up without nearly passing out for almost 3 days.) We washed the diapers when we stayed with friends or used the hotel's facilities. We have a ton of diapers though, so I only needed to do diapers ever 4-5 days. I had to wash our clothes as well (since we were without our washer and dryer for just over 3 weeks) so doing diaper laundry in a hotel was no biggie for me.
I do my best to not have to use disposables, especially in hotels. They stink up the room, especially when the kids have been wearing them all night ![]()

Re: Vacation and cloth diapering
If it's just for 2-3 days I take them and wash as soon as we get home, last summer we did a 2 week long vacation but there was a laundromat and clothesline (we stayed with MIL in her camper trailer), I haven't tried a long vacation but I would probably just use hotel laundromats if possible.

We've gone to Florida twice and once we had a W/D in our suite and once we used a service. Our primary diapering method is pfs so we had everything we needed. It worked great both ways and I would recommend either option.
