We are just back from a 3 week holiday to the US and having massively overpacked I am writing a packing list which I will refer to next time I am going on holiday.
You are welcome to use it too!
It assumes that there is access to a washing machine. The holiday we had was all hot, one week beach, one week lakes and mountains, one week big city.
So for me:
Two pairs shorts
Two pairs linen trews
One pair evening trousers
5 t-shirts
2 smarter tops
2 evening tops
2 casual dresses
1 evening dress
1 sweatshirt
1 cardi/wrap
2 swimming cossies
one beach cover up.
a few bits of jewellery
make up
skin care
minimal toiletries (you can buy what you need there!
underwear for one week
one change of gym kit (can be washed)
1 pair flipflops
1 pair trainers
1 pair smart sandals.
Children
4 pairs shorts
1 pair trousers
2 dresses (DD)
2 smart shirts (DS)
7 t-shirts each
2 smarter tops each

2 pairs pjs each
2 swimming cossies.
DH
3 shorts
2 long trousers
3 evening shirts
7 t-shirts
2 smarter polo shirts
underwear for 7 days
sweater
sweatshirt
2 swim shorts
one change of gym kit (can be washed)

one suncream (can buy others there)
DS lites and games
2 books each (1 each if English books available)
Camera and spare memory cards.
I will amend over next few days as I do the unpacking of our mountain of clothes - most of them unworn!
