Giving a 2 week notice before a 1 week vacation

I am anticipating a job offer that is better in pretty much every way than my current position. The timing of that offer may mean that I give a 2 week notice just before or during a week long vacation I’ve had approved for some time now. What’s the general consensus around doing this? For more context- I don’t want to burn bridges with my current boss (good person, potentially a good connection to keep) and don’t want to screw over the other employee in my position (even better person). Everyone else at this company I do not care about whatsoever. If it wasn’t for these 2 people I wouldn’t even give a notice. I’d like to start this new job asap, but maintain the connections that I care about.
