Would you have preferred if Sulani was a vacation world?

Like others, I'm yes and no - I haven't moved my legacy family there permanently, as I do like winters with snow, but they seem to be spending most of their time on the islands - there's still a lot that I haven't explored. It would be easier if they could use a real rental lot - I mentioned in another thread that I had a huge problem with Sims barging in on my 'generic' lot. (I've changed it to 'National Park' and so far, that seems to be discouraging visitors.)

I would really like to be able to live permanently in all worlds - I love Granite Falls, and that would probably be my choice for my 'main' house, but my kids and teens can't go to school, so I can't just live 'on vacation' all the time. Also, there are limitations on rental lots with build-buy.

It would also be nice if we could have multiple residences. I don't necessarily need to access all the junk in my Sims' treasure chest at every location (indeed, it would be nice to have separate treasure chests for each house), but it would be easier if I had access to the household inventory.

Given the current limitations on vacation worlds, however, I have to say no - I think that in general, people want worlds they can live in, not just visit.
