Island Living or Snowy Escape?
Hi! I see these packs being compared to each other, heck even some people saying "oh snowy escape is just IL but with snow" and I'd like to know which pack you prefer! I personally had much more fun w...

I prefer Island living over snowy escape. A lot of people say it doesn’t have as many activities, but my sims swim, fish ( love the boat for fishing ), beach comb, collect shells, build sand castles, lounge on blowups in the water, suntan, and jet ski, I haven’t tried the diving yet ( it is too bad you can’t see them diving under water ). Once in awhile they catch a festival. It is a great vacation spot for my sims, and brought the much needed swimming in places other than swimming pools. I also like the extra swimsuits ( though I also like the added jackets in Snowy escape ). The world is beautiful. Without this pack my sims couldn’t build sand castles, many of my sim kids have sand boxes, ( even have one by a karaoke bar in city living ) and till Island living sims children and toddlers could not play in the sand in them! There are a lot of good size lots in Sulani too. I have added a nightclub/BNB under the shipwreck lot and children's outdoor activities with BBQ, picnic table, loungers, and towels. I also added a Ship restaurant to one of the ocean lots with other activities. I have a rental in each Island, because my sims love the beach.
Because of island living we now get swimming in the newer packs in lakes and rivers. I DO wish they would add swimming to worlds like Oasis Springs ( the big lake there ), Windenburg Island, And Brindleton Bay ( at least for our selected household ). I also wish they would update Del Sole Valley with with some beach lots or bring out a beach pack based on California beaches, they could add surfing, boogie boarding, and volleyball. And, whatever happened to a regular diving board, pool slide, water basketball, and games for children like Marco Polo, and weighted ring tossing/retrieving? I would also like to see swimming in Silvadorado and Granite Falls.
Although I like skiing, sledding, boarding, climbing and hiking in Snowy escape, and the festivals, I was so disappointed that they didn’t make it where children could at least sled on mountains in other worlds in the snow ( having seasons ). They could have made a ramp we could place in the snow too for snow boarders in other worlds.
I have lived in California all my life, and love the Water, especially the beaches. So any pack with swimming an beach activities would be my preference. My active sims ( especially those that like to vacation love both worlds ).
