Family Vacation Rentals

"Global Family Vacation Rentals",
Before you go and get a reservation anywhere else, you have to check out what is available on the vacation rental websites. They come with kitches, tons of space, and no pesky hotel cleaners... perfect for families. Why rent two hotel rooms when you can rent one house for less. You usually have to stay at least two nights, but it works great for world travel.  

VRBO.com is one of the premiere vacation rental websites. You'll find over a hundred thousand vacation rentals in over 120 countries. It is simple to use, contact property owners, see availability, and reserve a rental for your family vacation.

HomeAway.com is another premiere vacation rental website, with more of a focus on international rentals. It is the parent company of several dozen websites in foreign countries. It is hard to fathom that there are over 100,000 house rentals on this site, and over 400,000 combined on all their sites together. Now go find that beach house in Fiji you want to lounge around in!
