Vacay Hair?

I am having a very hard time deciding what i want to do with my hair for this impending vacation. My fellow black girls, i know you are quite familiar with this dilemma. My hair gets very curly when it gets wet. The thing about it is, it doesn't stay as cute and curly when it dries. I absolutely don't want to deal with a mop of bad curls when I'm supposed to be looking like a tropical bronzed goddess.

I did my hair yesterday to see how long it would take and determine whether i should just tough it out and bring the blow drier/flatiron with me and straighten as necessary.
I started here:


(a bad blow dry job that took about 40 min)

and ended up here:

(a flatiron job that took about 45 min)

Now, do i really want to spend almost 2 hours doing hair while on vacay? hell no.

I thought about doing this look (in black of course):

But my mom gave me an ear full about how terrible this look is for me. Yes, i have tried it before.

And god forbid i do typical vacay hair (aka wet and wavy). I need a solution, and fast because it needs to be done today! Suggestions?

Ugh....
