We visiting my relatives in my country. And my relatives want to spend every single day and night with us, but I want to have some good private time with my husband . They don't understand that and think it's very wrong. I don't want them to feel bad, but I also want to have a good time , we always go on vacation with kids and this is the only vacation time for us
 
Ignore what they say. Nobody wants you to spend every single minute of your vacation with them. Be your own person and plan your vacation as you see fit. Spend a few days with them and then enjoy the as much time as you want with your husband.<>
 
It really is your duty to live your life the way YOU want to live it. They may get hurt feelings but they'll get over it. You may not get over the feeling of not living your life the way it should be lived.
 
How long are you going to be there? We live in USA. Our son and his family live in Europe. When they come to visit it is usually for 3 - 4 weeks. We love them dearly, but that is a LONG time. The last few times the visited, they took a middle week to go see other places and see other people. We actually welcome the break. It gives us a chance to catch up on things like yard work and laundry and to recharge our batteries for their return. Tell your family that you want to take your hubby to see some place and show him those things, and just go. I think they will also welcome a break.
 
Since this is the first vacation opportunity for you and your husband to spend alone time together, I would suggest vacationing in a different location. The relatives should not be hurt because you weren't even in their country (or part of the world even). You can always visit the relatives some other time with the kids, and some family time would be good to foster relations between your kids and your relatives. May I suggest Jamaica, the Bahamas, Cancun Mexico, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Puerto Rico, the Turks/Caicos, Dominica, etc... A nice Caribbean cruise can do wonders for fanning the flames of a relationship.
