Where does your 2 yo sleep on vacation?

I just realize my DD that just turned 2 is at the height and weight limit for the pack n play, which was where I was planning on having her sleep this summer on vacay Chat Icon

I think hotel cribs use the portable size which I think is the same measurements of the pack n play so wouldn't be comfortable for her eitherChat Icon

I hate the idea of bedrails or bumpers cause she's always all over the place and I don't feel safe enough because I think she would try to get out. Same for travel toddler beds - I don't trust her being able to roam around on her own. And I cant imagine having her between DH and I in a queen bed Chat Icon

Am I missing any other options? Are there pack n plays that are bigger like full size cribs?

TIA

She would be fine in a pack n play. My DS was a big boy and I had him sleeping in a pack n play for as long he slept in a crib at home

Thanks - the problem with the cot is she'll be able to get up and out on her own. Shes still touches everything shes not supposed to etc and im concerned with her getting into trouble in a hotel room if we are still asleep (shes often up in the middle of the night)

Dd slept in the pnp on vacation until she was almost 3 and had been out if the crib for almost 6 months. She slept fine in it although we used a mattress.

We used to bring an inflatable toddler bed with us. It fit in a suitcase and came with a motorized pump. We bought it from One Step Ahead.

My DS is the same age and I plan on using the PNP for at least the entire summer. He is more or less at the height/weight limit. Although he sleeps fine in a toddler cot at daycare, I know he would get out of it a million times in the middle of the night and we are renting houses for our vacations, which I doubt are childproofed so he needs to be contained.

I would call the hotel and ask what the dimensions the crib is. I have always found that the majority of hotels we have stayed at have been full size cribs, not the mini cribs.
