What is a Vacation Rental?

Many of our consumers ask, “What is a vacation rental?” The general definition of a vacation rental is a home, townhouse or condominium, owned by a private individual that is available for rent. The primary benefits of staying in a vacation home versus staying in a hotel are:

  • More Space. Instead of small-spaced rooms with two beds, vacation rentals allow the entire family to stay under the same roof often with multiple rooms. This kind of accommodation is well-suited for extended stays.
  • More Amenities. These properties offer more amenities than hotels, such as fully-equipped kitchens, fireplaces and private hot tubs and pools.
  • Great Locations. Vacation rentals are often, literally, directly on the beach - try that from your hotel room!
  • Privacy. Free from the people and environment that comes with noisy hotels, privacy is one of the biggest benefits of vacation rentals.
