Should I be allowed to go on a vacation with my boyfriend's family?

Okay so here's the situation:

I am 16 going on 17 (my mom basically considers me 17 already). My boyfriend is 17 going on 18 (he was held back in kindergarten due to dyslexia). My parents don't care about the age gap at all. We've been dating for 8 months. My dad has met both of his parents. My mom has not because she doesn't want to and she's not social (it's just her nature). Both of my parents have met my boyfriend and they like him and think he's a good kid. He's my first real boyfriend and I'm his first real girlfriend.

There is a good chance that he could be moving out of state this summer due to a promotion his father could get. So, I really want to spend all the time I can with him. I don't spend every waking moment with him either. I have a job and work upwards of 36 hours a week.

For his birthday his family is going out of town to a water park for a week. His fanily has invited me to come along. The town is 2 hours out and we wouldn't be having sex or sleeping in the same room or anything inappropriate. I would pay for my own ticket to the water park and any expenses. My parents wouldn't pay a dime.

I'm a straight A student and i always have academics at my focus. I generally always take their advice. I've never done anything to disappoint them or make them lose any trust in me. They taught me well, but I still think they believe I'm going to be off having sex with him when I'm not.

I asked my mother and she expressed her concerns saying how she doesn't know if she can trust his parents(she's never met them). My parents do let me go over to his house and vice versa and we spend upwards of 8 hours together those days. When I go to his, we always spend time with his parents and sister because they're social. At mine, my parents literally never check on us (we're always in my room. I keep the door open but not because they told me to but because I don't want them getting the wrong idea). If we wanted something to happen, it would have already.

I feel like people are very opinionated about relationships, especially in the teen years. So, advice on how to convince my parents or at least make them understand that we are not and will not be having sex? Would you let your daughter/son go? General thoughts on the situation?
