A Room? How About a Whole Vacation Home
Discover the secrets of vacation rentals and cabins that are spread across most of the world. Imagine all the comforts of home for your family vacation in the perfect location: on your favorite river, near Disneyland, close to the ski slopes in Lake Tahoe, or on the beaches of Maui, Hawaii and the Gulf Shores. The comforts, perks and amenities are many, but the location and cost for a week-long family vacation may surprise you, in a good way.
Need a vacation from your vacation? It’s no wonder if you’ve just spent that precious week or two crammed into a hotel room, sleeping in a rollaway bed, sharing one bathroom, and craving even 5 minutes of peace and quiet. Your typical hotel room offers 400 square feet. Total. Your typical vacation rental home offers 2500 glorious square feet of space – living space, sleeping space, relaxing space. The kitchen alone might just be bigger than the entire hotel room.
Hotels have to cover extraordinary costs with their nightly rate, their room service and restaurant prices, and their fees for services. That’s why even tiny 400 square foot rooms can be so expensive (and that’s before you’ve even eaten or gone anywhere). Vacation rental owners have much more modest costs to cover to maintain their property. And they pass those savings on to travelers. Vacation rental homes begin less expensively, allowing you to enjoy more of the things you’re on vacation to enjoy: the attractions, a couple of really good meals out, peace of mind.
Peace and quiet – It’s 7:30am…knock, knock, knock “Housekeeping, housekeeping!” followed by the key in the door. Does this sound familiar? Most hotels rooms are surrounded by other rooms with other people. While sleep is important on vacation, no hotel I’ve ever stayed in has a curfew. “Bang, boom, thump,” sound familiar? We all know the irritation of noisy neighbors in the room next door or up above yours. A vacation home is as quiet as you make it or as loud as you want it to be. It’s your choice. Vacation homes come with space around them and insulation to buffer you from the outside world when it’s your time to rest and relax.
Kitchen – Most Lake Tahoe vacation rentals include kitchens the size of a normal hotel room. Three meals per day add up to major bucks but entertaining guests and occasional family breakfasts, lunches and dinners around the fire may allow for an extended stay on your next holiday. Most kitchens provide cookware, dishes and utensils, just the way you like it. Your own kitchen! Your own microwave! Your own stove. A full-sized refrigerator! These are some of the most popular features of vacation rentals, because they simply offer you complete control over your meals during your trip. Breakfast in bed is still a real possibility followed by a picnic lunch on the beach, and then you could still head out to a local restaurant for dinner. The flexibility built in to this type of accommodation adds convenience, lowers the cost, and provides the good old “comforts of home” feeling. Those breakfasts and lunches eaten at “home?”…they just allowed you to spend one more day at Disney World, Sea World, on the slopes, touring Lake Tahoe on snowmobiles, or snorkeling with the sea turtles.
Have it your way – No more planning around the hotel shuttle, no more spending premium rates for taxi rides (or the tips)…you can make your own schedule in a vacation rental. Need some ice, board games, movies, books, a hot tub, pool, WIFI or how about a backyard? You are in luck. Booking a vacation home is your choice and so are the cool amenities that come with it at no extra charge. Most all amenities that come with vacation homes and cabins are included at the time of booking and are FREE!
Vacation Rentals in The Gulf Shores are everywhere situated along the beaches but did you know that most all top visited travel hot spots offer vacation rentals, beach homes, villas and condo rentals? Families traveling with kids or in groups are finding some great deals on these amazing properties around the world.
If you have not stayed in a vacation rental check out some of the most desired travel destinations that offer vacation rentals for all budgets. Cape Coral, Myrtle Beach, Indian Shores, Orlando, Destin, Breckenridge, Vail, Keystone, Telluride, Steamboat, Lake Tahoe, Mammoth Lakes, Big Bear Lake, Table Rock, Shawnigan Lake, Davenport, Hilton Head, Fripp Island, Scottsdale, Cancun, Palm Desert, San Diego, Las Vegas, Oregon, the Virgin Islands…just about any destination you can think of, you will find a vacation rental, not just hotels.
NEVER BOOK VACATION RENTALS THAT ARE NOT VERIFIED! LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN, NEVER BOOK VACATION RENTALS THAT ARE NOT VERIFIED! Why? The internet is a breeding ground for scams. Anyone can list a handful of vacation rentals in Orlando, Florida or New York City and throw some competitive prices into the advertisement. The next thing you know you arrive at an empty lot after a long day of travel only to find out you were scammed.
A tip for your next family vacation rental should be to always use caution when booking vacation rentals. From Lake Tahoe, Nevada to Maui, Hawaii to the Gulf shores most “rent by owner” websites do not verify thier listings and scams are in this marketplace just like all areas that allow individuals to advertise. Simply because the vacation home is listed does not mean it has a foundation and an address. Always find out as much as you can about the owner of the rental before submitting your hard earned money. Owners and listing sites that accept credit cards should be placed at the top of your list. Check with the owner of the website to ensure each vacation rental, beach home or ski cabin has been checked out and verified with documentation. It only takes a few minutes to research this but time well spent prior to sending someone you don’t know a thousand bucks!
To find vacation rentals simply type in to your browser “BOOK LAKE TAHOE RENTALS” or “BOOK VERIFIED VACATION RENTALS” or BOOK MAUI, HAWAII CONDO RENTALS” and away you go. Sometimes half of the fun is researching that special beach house or rental home that fits what you and your family desire. These homes come in all price ranges and are sure to fit even the most critical traveler needs. Here is a great vacation rentals website for booking verified vacation rentals which allows rental bookings as fast as booking hotel rooms, and yes they come with discount too. Many Disneyland and Disney World vacation rentals come with kitchens the size of hotel rooms.
Searching for vacation rentals to book? Simply type in “BOOK VACATION RENTALS IN LAKE TAHOE” or “BOOK VACATION RENTALS IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA” or whatever destination you and your family have in mind. Many sites that list vacation rentals provide you with fantastic resources for your next holiday adventure. Remember to spend a little time on the site and most of all look for vacation rental listings that are NOT too good to be true! Talk to the owner of the site to inquire about their process of verification. And when you get tired of hotels with views of the parking lot check out a mountain top vacation rental with views of the canyon may be right for you and your family for your next family vacation.

Because of the various options when it comes to purchasing Walt Disney World tickets, it is sometimes difficult to determine which one we should do and what to follow. Having tickets is not enough.

I’ll take an ocean front vacation rental with steps down to the sandy beach in the Gulf Shores any day of the week (except during the winter). Our kids love the ocean and making sand castles! My hubbie and I love to sit on the deck for a nice breakfast and dinner overlooking the beautiful ocean.
PS agree on checking out sites with verified vacation rentals.
