Great Group of Activities to Get Up & Move to
If you liked Wii Sports Resort, you will like this game. There are more activities to do along with treasure hunting in each of the areas.

Different from Wii Sports, for Better and Worse
For those not familiar, Go Vacation is an enhanced port from a 2011 game for the Nintendo Wii. At first glance, it looks like a ripoff of Wii Sports Resort, but it offers different activities and a slightly more deeper gamepay experience. But because it is from the Wii era, motion controls are virtually forced in some activities, especially in the opening tutorials, despite being able to play using the Pro Controller and in handheld mode. The graphics are also straight fro the Wii game, and you can use your Mii as well. Some missing sports kind of further sour the experience, but with no Wii Sports game on the Switch as of yet, this game is a decent substitute.

A good time for Miis
If you like Mii games then this is a strong recommend, especially if you never played the original. The minigames are fun, but exploring the island in free roam is where the game really shines. The only real drawbacks are the clunky controls and that each menu requires a loading screen which really slows down gameplay. If you can get past these issues, there is a fun time here.

Fun way to spend free time
This is the closest game to wii sports resort you’ll get on the switch. It’s not the same but it’s still a great deal of fun! I’ve been through all the islands and designed my villa and I still don’t get bored of playing most of the mini games!

Give it a Go?
In my opinion, it doesn't quite nail the Wii Sports Resort vibe that it seems to be going for, but it's still an OK game. I think it could especially be good for the younger audience out there, but it didn't quite grab me the way I had hoped.

Would a 4 year old be able to play this? I like playing Mario Kart with my daughter and she enjoys it with the mode that helps her stay on the track. Does this game have something similar?
no, the games are really basic, younger kids may like just running around the resorts, but the control schemes and games are not that great
