Vacation rentals aren’t always the first thought when it comes to planning a getaway. When you start planning a vacation, choosing the right place to stay is key. While resorts have their appeal, there are several compelling reasons why opting for a short-term vacation rental may be a better choice.
7 reasons we prefer booking a vacation rental over a resort
1. Unique Accommodations
Vacation rentals come in a wide range of locations, styles, and themes. Whether you prefer a beachfront cottage, a cozy mountain cabin, a trendy urban loft, or a countryside villa, there is a vacation rental to suit every taste and preference. This variety allows you to choose a location and property that aligns with your vacation goals and desired ambiance.
Instead of a hotel experience that is similar just about anywhere you go, consider a romantic mountain tiny home, a luxury desert townhome with abundant outdoor entertainment, or a spacious home near the lake.
2. Personalized Customer Service
Vacation rental owners and property managers can offer personalized customer service to ensure a smooth and pleasant stay for their guests. We make sure to be available to address any concerns, provide local recommendations, or assist with any issues that may arise during your vacation. Our Big Bear tiny home even comes with concierge service to make sure you get all the reservations and services you need for a relaxing experience. This personalized attention and responsiveness will enhance your overall experience and help create a positive and memorable stay.
3. Comforts and Amenities to Remind You of Home
Vacation rentals offer a range of home-like comforts and amenities that can enhance your vacation experience. Our properties feature things like a fully equipped kitchen, a washer and dryer, a private pool, private hot tub, outdoor grilling areas, game rooms, and a home theater. These amenities provide convenience, entertainment, and relaxation, making your stay more enjoyable and memorable.
4. Cost Effectiveness
Vacation rentals can offer significant cost savings, especially for larger groups or extended stays. Renting a vacation home often proves to be more cost-effective than booking multiple hotel rooms in a resort. Additionally, having access to a full kitchen allows you to cook meals and save money on dining out. With a vacation rental, you can have a more budget-friendly vacation without compromising on comfort and amenities.
5. Privacy
One of the primary advantages of a vacation rental is the ample space it provides compared to a typical resort room. Vacation rentals often include multiple bedrooms, a living area, a kitchen, and sometimes additional amenities like a private pool or patio. This extra space allows for more privacy, flexibility, and a sense of being in a home away from home. Whether you’re traveling with family or friends, having separate bedrooms and common areas can create a more comfortable and enjoyable experience.
6. Local Experience
Choosing a vacation rental allows you to immerse yourself in the local community and experience your destination more authentically. Renting a property in a residential neighborhood enables you to interact with locals, visit nearby markets, shops, and restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the local culture. You can explore off-the-beaten-path attractions, discover hidden gems, and truly live like a local during your vacation.
7. Best for Group Travel
Vacation rentals are particularly well-suited for group travel. Whether you’re planning a family reunion, a getaway with friends, or a corporate retreat, vacation rentals can accommodate large groups comfortably under one roof. The communal spaces allow for shared experiences and bonding, while the individual bedrooms offer privacy and personal space when needed.
