Have a work arrangement. Tasks should be designated to the members of the family who are part of the vacation; however, refrain from giving the grandparents a specific duty. Let your in-laws do what they prefer doing. Never demand them for doing something.
Just be yourself. Do not think that your in-laws are there to observe and wait for you to commit a mistake. Do not be afraid to show the real you and to react on situations based on your real perception.
Take charge of the accommodation. If possible, be the one to make the arrangements in a hotel. By this, you can have the options to choose your own preferred room and you will still have your privacy though they might often drop to your room.
Entrust the kids to them. Your in-laws might have another way of dealing and disciplining the kids which is totally different from yours. To avoid conflicts, allow them to be with the kids. Learn to accept the fact that your kids can also survive without you and they may also enjoy and appreciate the company of their grandparents.
Don't expect and assume. Avoid setting your own standard and rules during the vacation. Expect that anything can happen and be ready to face any situation that you might be facing.
Look forward to another vacation. After your trip, plan another one which is without in-laws this time. It will be something to ponder and to anticipate on the next couple of days.
