‘I told her I wasn’t switching, my hotel was part of the special deal’: Cousin tries to turn an adults‑only Cyprus getaway into a family trip on the couple’s dime, trying to switch the booking, and gets shut down

Under a half‑packed suitcase and printed boarding passes, a cousin's eight‑year‑old announces that "we are all going to Cyprus," because his mother already promised a group trip on an adults‑only booking meant for a quiet week with a boyfriend. 


The reservation is a rare discount at a five‑star couples hotel after two months of unpaid babysitting, and the plan is simple: fly together, rest, and reclaim silence. The cousin's counterplan arrives preloaded: switch to a family hotel, add three kids, and put it on the couple's card, with the built‑in expectation that the child‑free relative will double as vacation childcare. Practical help is offered in the form of family‑friendly options, and a firm refusal is given to subsidizing or supervising, which somehow earns accusations of selfishness from houseguests already avoiding five‑hundred‑a‑night local rates.
