I have the same problem, live on the island, going to college, but whenever I try to check into a resort the game freezes. I do not own any of the resorts only partners in a few other business and own the bookstore. It simply freezes when I step up to the counter to check in. Frustrating.
Overwatch fixes the issue - it's related to your Sim being self-employed while trying to check in. Either install Overwatch (because who knows when EA will get around to fixing it), or take another job.

What did you mean by "take another job"? What job doesn't cause the game to crash?

The issue is related to self-employed careers so any rabbithole ones should be fine.
I'm sorry but sims shouldn't have to take other jobs. There are benefits to "self-employed" option. I want my sims to keep this option. Making a sim unemployed IS NOT A VIABLE SOLUTION.
I agree, I love having them self employed so I can actually see what they're doing. Plus, they make more money faster (my favorite benefit). It's relatively hard to get EA's attention on this....the darn Answer HQ is just another forum. Something needs to be done soon. The game just came out, there shouldn't be any problems with it.
