As a way to stay away from everyday routine, Sims can now have a vacation by booking one via [[phone]] or [[computer]]. Traveling to vacation landmarks, relaxing, and experiencing things that normally cannot be found in the everyday life is what vacationing is all about. Sims can go to a vacation trip alone or bringing families and friends along. Going on vacation doesn't require any day off from [[Career|job]], because while being on vacation, ages and time continuity stop. Meaning, when Sims travel on vacation on Tuesday noon, they will be back home by Tuesday noon too. This mechanism is similar to when Sims travel to [[community lot]]s. Vacation trips, however, have limited time, and the vacation time is over for several days, Sims will be forced to go home. This means they can't stay forever at the Vacation Destination. Sims can stay with the maximum of 7 days on vacation.
While on a vacation, the main attraction is to travel to community lots and spend as much time as possible there, because Sims shouldn't waste their precious time at home. The time continuity works differently from going to community lots in the Base Neighborhood. Time and hours will keep going when Sims leave house and when they're back home. This is similar to the time mechanics in [[College]]s. The difference is, they can't learn [[skill]]s, gain [[enthusiasm]]{{Vgversion|TS2:FT}}, or build [[talent badge]]s. Also, [[Lifetime Aspiration]] will not be accumulated so Sims cannot
===Vacation Accommodations===
Sims need to stay somewhere while on vacation. There are three types of accommodation where Sims can stay: Vacation Homes, [[Hotel]]s, or Campgrounds. Each of the accommodations has its own advantages and disadvantages. Vacation Homes can be purchased from real estate, but they are very expensive; costing the same as regular houses. It is, however, fully customizable just like normal [[residential lot]]s.
Hotels are the second expensive accommodation, but the price depend on the type of lodge Sims are staying. The more luxurious the hotel is, the more expensive. Sims cannot access [[Inventory]] in the Hotels nor Campgrounds. A hotel may and may not contain
Campgrounds are free, and the only premade Campground is [[Axe Wood Campgrounds]]. Sims sleep in tents that replenish [[Energy]] [[need]] slowly. Campgrounds don't have cleaning service, so Sims must clean up the mess themselves or [[influence]] others to do so. Campgrounds and tents are also vulnerable to outdoor [[temperature]]. Thus, staying in the Campground in extreme temperature or on [[Winter]] is difficult to Sims. Campgrounds can provide some campfires to keep Sims warm by sitting around one.
===Vacation Memento===
Sims who achieve vacation experiences can keep track on what they have done on vacation by looking at their [[Vacation memento|Vacation Memento]]. Each Sim has Vacation Memento in their [[Memory|memories]] panel. It has a suitcase icon. There are 45 mementos in total. Sims can earn mementos by doing certain things or achieve things that particularly can be found in Vacation Destination, such as learning local [[Dancing|dances]] and eating local food. Sims will earn vacation titles in the Vacation Memento panel the more they gain mementos. Collecting all mementos doesn't reward Sims anything, though.
