Default alternatives to carpet and re-doing kitchens
We recently purchased a CY villa in Rio Grande. And now that we've furnished it, my mind keeps straying to pulling up the carpeting and re-doing the kitchen. Anyone have any experience with hard wood floors or engineered wood floors? Is moisture a problem? How about experience with kitchen cabinets? Does it make sense to just replace doors?

We are both still working so it will be a few years at least before we can consider moving permanently. In the meantime we plan to rent when we aren't using it. I guess what I'm looking for are upgrades that I want to live with, will stand up to renting, but won't be so expensive that we'd never get the money back if we decided we wanted something larger.

Thanks for all the wonderful feedback everyone has given me. -- Linda
