The president is spending 11 days at Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts. It is his sixth vacation of 2010, but he tends to take very short holidays. As of August 19, 2010, his five previous holidays totaled 20 days.
During their time in office, President Obama had a more impactful vacation policy compared to President Bush.

As of the end of 2013, President Obama and his family have taken over 110 vacation days.It is not a record breaker -- other presidents have taken more.
no i hope my in depth anser helped
I was told that Obama's dog travels on a separate aircraft. It's a Muslim thing. Is that true?
Even when he was not in politics, Mr. Obama always enjoyed going back to Hawaii, so that he could visit his relatives and friends.
First, it is difficult to answer this question because we do not know which vacation you are wondering about. But presidential vacations are not unusual: all presidents go on vacation. And contrary to opinions expressed on TV and radio Talk Shows, President Obama's vacations have not been any more expensive, nor any longer, than those of his predecessors, Presidents Bush and Clinton. It should be noted that it is very common for the opponents of the party in power to claim the current president is spending outrageous amounts on vacations. Usually, such claims are exaggerated: for example, in 2010, an internet rumor claimed that President Obama wasted taxpayer money by having a private plane fly his dog to the family's Maine vacation. But it turned out this was a myth and no such flight took place. There was another internet claim that president Obama took more vacation days than any president in history, but that too turned out to be false.
No, there is not mention that President Obama missed another wreath laying ceremony on this Veteran's Day, November 11, 2013 because he was on vacation.
President Obama has taken 84 days (some sources say 90) during his first four years. This is less than what President Bush took in the same time period, but slightly more than what Bill Clinton took. However, no matter who the president may be, he is never really on vacation-- for example, even when Mr. Obama is in Hawaii with his family, he has to be in constant contact with his staff, and ready at a moment's notice to take action if some crisis occurs.
