Hotels Vs. Vacation Homes

I learned the hard way that renting a vacation home is the way to go when going on vacation. That’s why when I plan my southern California road trip to visit my friend next summer I’m going to find myself a nice little rental instead of staying at an overpriced, undersized hotel. I’m also going to enlist said friend in helping me find a nice san diego vacation rental for me to call home for a couple of weeks. There are so many reasons why renting a vacation home is better and more practical then renting a room in a hotel. In a hotel, you don’t get nearly as much privacy as you do in a home. You also usually won’t get your own private pool, and most hotels don’t even come with a kitchen. If they do, the room is way more expensive. The space factor is one of the most important aspects, in my opinion. In a hotel, you and your family all have to usually stay in one room. If you rent a vacation home, you will be able to have your own room. If you have kids, this can be especially important. Imagine wanting to be able to soak in a nice hot tub or take a swim in the pool after you’ve put the kids down for the night? If you are staying in a hotel you won’t be able to do that for the simple fact that you’d have to leave the children in the hotel room. Also in a hotel room, once the kids are in bed for the night, you pretty much have to sit there in silence and in the dark so as not to wake them. That’s not really that much fun. You’d get no time to yourself, really. That doesn’t sound like much of a vacation to me. Renting a vacation home will prove to be one of the best choices you can make when planning your vacation.

We have a big family and it is much cheaper to rent a vacation home then a hotel
Hi Angela,
I agree with you completely renting a vacation home is the way to go vs stay in a hotel room.
Why rent a room when you can have a house and usually in a better and more interesting location.
My husband and I recently stayed at a great little Vacation Rental in Ajijic, Mexico.
Had a great time. We plan to go back next year.
