For Pesach, our extended family is getting together at a hotel for the first time ever. The hotel is a long trip from where we live, and since we're a kollel family with many children, some of my siblings got together to chip in for both our traveling expenses and our hotel stay - not cheap! We always buy a small gift for each sibling when we visit them for YT, and now I want to buy something nice for those who are helping with our expenses. A few of my siblings weren't able to help at all due to difficult financial situations. If I buy the same gift for each family including those who didn't help, do you think anyone would be insulted? If I buy a nicer gift for those who paid and something smaller for those who didn't, is that okay? Which is the better choice?

Buy the same gift for everyone but maybe write a personal note to those that helped to thank them.

Buy everyone the same gift. The other way, would be insulting. Definitely write each sibling a personal note. You sound like you have a wonderful family.

Thanks for all the input. I'm going to give everyone the same gift but write a nice poem for those who helped us.

Because we see them so infrequently, and we live in a place that's kind of a tourist attraction, we try to give them a small gift from our hometown whenever we see them. Nothing too expensive though.
