Vacation Home Rentals

Posted in Uncategorized  on June 30th, 2008 by: Lisa

Not everyone stays in a hotel when they go on vacation. I know several people who look into vacation rentals by owner when they are heading out on vacation. Instead of staying in a stuffy hotel, they get to be comfortable in someone else’s house. The owners sometimes use their second home for this or if you live near an event (like the Olympics) will give up their primary home. I know if Chicago gets the Olympics that I will definitely be looking into vacation rentals. We will find someplace else to live for that month! The cool thing about home rentals is that they are available all over the place: you can find Florida rentals all the way up to Alaska rentals. Pretty much anywhere you want to go, you can find a rental property.

When you use Vacation Home Rentals, you are able to see exactly what you are getting.  There are pictures, a list of what the house has, and how much they are wanting monthly, weekly, daily, etc.  For example, the house that I have pictured above rents for $700 a night, $3,100 a week, or $15,000 a month.  It has 4 bedrooms and 4 bath.  It has full listing of all the amentities like high speed internet access and the activities that are located in the area.  Now, if this is little above your price range, there are tons of other listings you can choose from.  They have houses, condos, and apartments that you can choose from for your rental.

Next time you go are planning a vacation, check out Vacation Home Rentals.

Cruises

Posted in Uncategorized  on June 23rd, 2008 by: Lisa

I have never been a cruise ever.  However, this is one of those things I would love to do.  My inlaws went on a Royal Caribbean(I think) cruise several years ago and absolutely loved it. They actually told us that we need to take one ourselves one day, because it was one of the best vacations they had ever had. After doing some research, I have found that there are several different kinds of cruises you can take. They range from Celebrity Cruises all the way to just using the Norwegian Cruise Line. Currently, my inlaws are in Hawaii. Now, if they would have used a company like Direct Line Cruises, they could have taken a cruise there instead of the forever long airplane trip (which may be a great option for my family with two little ones under the age of 5)! Direct Line Cruises include destinations such as Alaska (which I would seriously love to do!), Bermuda, Canada, the Caribbean, and Europe — just to name a few. Personally, I have always wanted to take an Alaskan cruise. I have heard it is absolutely awesome to go and do. Direct Line Cruises has been around since 1995, so they have been around the block a few times. This is definitely not a fly by night company. They also make booking super easy — it is a just a phone call away or a couple of clicks online!
