10 nights or 7 nights: WWYD?

Thinking of going on a long haul holiday (Barbados) for some winter sun.

I only have enough annual leave for:

i) 7 nights in Barbados and then use 3 days annual leave to have a full week off at Christmas; or

ii) 10 nights in Barbados and only the bank holiday days off at Christmas.

WWYD?

I say 10 nights in Barbados. It’s a long way to go for just a week.

Definitely 10 nights in Barbados. It'll take you a couple of days to get over the jetlag.

10 nights in Barbados for sure.

Lovely length of time when you’re going that far and you’ll be popular at work for not requesting any extra time off over Christmas!

10 nights in Barbados, it's a heck of a journey.

10 nights, time off at Christmas is a bit cheese, cheese and more cheese!

We did Barbados for a week and it was fine! From the UK. However I find endless time off at Christmas a bit dull so I’d rather work it- but we live locally to all UK based family so no travel to spend Christmas with them.
