Now there are many vacation rental options and more people are dipping their toes in. My friend regularly lists her Santa Monica apartment (with cat) on airbnb.com. Or you can stay in a Snow Dome outside of Moscow.
You can also visit boutique-homes.com and find anything from expansive villas in the south of France to this vintage airstream rental in Big Sur.
London even has it's own site, onefinestay.com, that allows you to "live like a local" in a place like this Clarendon Road apartment. I also like this site because you can get a peek into all the impeccably decorated homes without the slightest intention of visiting London.
Do you prefer to stay in a hotel with all the amenities or live like a local in a vacation rental?
Oh I seriously could do that Airstream! This is a fun post, Capella. I have spent so much time in hotel rooms I get the heebies. I begin to think about bedbugs and how many feet have been on the carpet, and what is found with a blacklight all over bedding and walls in a hotel room, till I can't enjoy my stay. I am all for rentals. The best vaca we ever had was a huge gathering on St. George with the entire family in a gigantic home. So the way to go, and I just love ya for this post! Hope all well with you and Nate!
ReplyDeleteI have only tried a vacation rental once and really loved it. I have to say though, a fine hotel is always a luxury!
