What are your "take to the room" staples?

Do they provide a small trial size box of laundry detergent?

We'll be renting points for 2 nts precruise and don't want to pack dirty clothes onto the ship. It would be nice to wash a load or 2. We own a TS off site and have traded often through RCI but never stayed at a DVC resort. Most TS resorts have a box or 2 near the W/D. Does DVC do this also? I'm packing now so any tips would be great.

Thanks!

There usually seems to be a single-use Tide in the 1BR+ units (not studios).

Beer, scotch and advil... and don't forget to pack a good wine key (bartender's corkscrew)

On your Trash and Towel day and if you stay long enough for a full cleaning, they will give you another single use box. But since we always do two loads when we do laundry we always bring extra detergent and bounce dryer sheets. Or if we are flying the Purex 3 in 1 sheets which are much easier to pack in a suitcase.

DH is the only one who drinks coffee, so he likes those single serve packs, kind of like a tea bag. It's like having a built in filter

Cokes/mixers/rum/tequila

Snacks and juice boxes

Ziploc bags--they come in handy for all kinds of stuff, like wet swimsuits, etc
