10 Tips to Make Mom's Trip Easier

December 06, 20222 min read

Have you ever felt like you are just a glorified chaos coordinator? It's a thankless title that comes with great responsibility. But you know what? We do it because we love it. I truly believe that one day my kids will look back and say, "Wow...how did you do all that?" I know that I think about my mom all the time and wonder how she did it all.

That is why our most popular shirt that we sell at the resort simply says, "Chaos Coordinator." Moms who get it, get it. At Metropolis Resort, we try to make your trip as easy as possible because we understand what it can be like to go on a family vacation. Sometimes it can be stressful, but it doesn't have to be.

Here is a list of 10 things to make trips easier for moms at Metropolis Resort!

  1. Coffee in the lobby! What mom doesn’t enjoy free coffee in the morning?!

  2. Large luggage carts in the lobby. We practically pack the entire house up when we travel, so having large luggage carts readily available at check in is a must. Send the dads up to the room with the luggage and the kiddos while you take a break with your cup of coffee.

  3. Metropolis Resort is large enough for every family member to enjoy, but not too large that you have to walk miles to get to the parks.

  4. On-site restaurants. No need to pack the kids back up in the car. Enjoy multiple choices right on site. Chaos Water Park features adult beverages so you can kick back while the kids swim. For breakfast, City Eats serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner—and has the best Bloody Mary. If a bloody isn't your thing, try a Mimosa flight featuring 4 different mimosas! The kids menu makes it so easy to sit back and enjoy your meal knowing that they kids have something they will like too!

  5. Life jackets & swim diapers available and free to use. It’s wonderful to not have to worry about packing those along.

  6. Kiosks located in Action City. This is helpful so we don’t have to wait in lines when we already have our cards, and the kiddos just need more money added on.

  7. Cute apparel for sale throughout the resort. I’m a sucker for a new cute mom shirt!

  8. Dairy Queen on-site. We always get dessert when we go on vacation!

  9. Renting cabanas/party rooms at a reasonably price. It’s nice for grandma and grandpa to have a guaranteed spot to hang out and watch the kiddos.

  10. The Adult Zone in Action City is a quiet location for adults only. You can sit on a comfy couch and hang out while reading, working, or just watching some mom TikToks!

From a fellow mom to you...go grab yourself a Chaos Coordinator shirt from the lobby and wear it proud!!

Enjoy these years with the kids. They go fast!
