Bed wetting and holiday. WWYD?

DS is 7 and wets almost every night. At home we use washable inco pads under a waterproof sheet. Daily laundry on holiday isn’t impossible but will be a bit of a pain. Would you do pull ups? He’s happy to wear them. It’s 10 nights.
Thanks.

Pull ups yes, if he is happy,

Have been in a similar situation. We brought a spare fitted sheet or two and Huggies Dry Nights disposable waterproof pads for the bed.

Yes, if he's happy to then I'd go for those. Much nicer than waking up soaked anyway, although we're letting DD not wear them at home like you are. On holiday, or in someone else's house, she has agreed to wear a pull-up.

Will there be a duvet that might get wet too?

We have a similar problem and have just done a week camping.

We put the normal washable absorbent pad on the bed, and then a disposable (drynights?) pad on, then a sheet. The disposable pads absorbed everything, leaving just the sheet to wash, which could be done by hand and should dry in time to go back on the bed at night.

The environmental impact concerns me, but for a week I decided it was worth it.
