vacation worlds are boring to me

I use them occasionally, when I want my Sims to get away from work/school, but agree they are boring. I added a restaurant, which helps, but I wish we had more lot types. It is a shame the bowling and movies packs didn't include lot types. I wish we had a proper arcade lot and also a casino type lot. You could turn Granite Falls into a Lake Tahoe type vacation if we had casinos, and skiing. Instead we have a bunch of different types of club lots, which are pretty similar, and don't make vacations interesting, because "been there done that". It would be nice to get some new entertainment lots.

Towards the end of Sims 3 the Store got so many cool items, roller coaster, merry go round, a Venice style water ride, plus it had tons of arcade games. Ah but Sims 3 had so much more stuff. Of course it has it's flaws, but I miss being able to build really cool lots for my Sims.

I've made Granite falls into a Christmas village where the houses are all festively decorated. So whenever I want my sims to celebrate winterfest I take them on vacation to granite falls. This way I don't have to decorate my house for winterfest everytime.

Oh, I love that idea!
Can we build retaillots in GF? that way I could add a christmas market.

I love Selvadorada, and Granite Falls is good too. I like the tranquil atmosphere and although iit would be fun adding more community lots, I appreciate the quiet and silent forest, I want my sims to go there to get away from their everyday, so I dd not change much yet. Hoping we get a hotel pack, if so I'll build one in the forest. Now I got the idea of a clothing optional lot, that could still be silent and quiet, it reminds me I never yet tested that "new" lot trait :open_mouth:

Love your Selvadorada makeover, @MDianaSims ! I've been thinking of rebuilding some of the lots, just not gotten to it yet. Your cantina looks so cool! Anyway, when my sims go there it's mostly for exploring the jungle, so I don't spend much time on the village lots.

Totally agree. The falls is actually so lame lol. I usually rebuild it up, add some modded camping equipment to make it look more authentic and host and put a bunch of college kids to make it like a bad slasher film setup :-)
