Find the perfect vacation rental

Posted on March 10th, 2010 by admin in Trip Planning Resources


Finding the perfect vacation rental is not easy. The sheer volume of locations, styles, prices and services on offer make looking for a comfortable vacation home a case of finding the proverbial needle in a haystack.

However, getting this decision right is very important. We invest so much time and energies in working hard throughout the year you don’t want to be disappointed, or worse, disappoint your family when choosing you vacation rental.

Fortunately there are only three keys to a great vacation rental: Location, location, location. Yes the same principle used to choose a home to live in holds true when choosing a vacation rental.

Location, Where to go?
Do you want an exotic vacation in the Caribbean or would you prefer a lodge in a ski resort in the Alps. It will depend in what you hope to get out of your vacation, your personal preferences and expectations. Make sure your vacation rental home provides the setting you want for your holiday by researching the area where it is located. For example if you want high quality rental homes in a secure and beautiful location you can’t go wrong with Costa Rica Vacation Rentals. More specifically, Tamarindo vacation rentals are a great choice for holidaymakers that want to visit this magical part of Costa Rica’s Pacific coastline.

Location, What to do?
Decide on a location based on the desirable features it offers as a vacation spot. What is the nightlife like, are there plenty of shots and restaurants? Does it have any historical sites, surfing spots or other recreational facilities? It is important to make sure your vacation rental is close to beautiful locations and services that will make your holiday fun as well as comfortable. Costa Rica vacation rentals provide natural wonders that will hold you in awe. Tamarindo rentals are close to world famous beaches such as Playa Langosta and Playa Grande where you can see the nesting areas of the giant leatherback turtle. You can also surf, visit amazing national parks or just relax while enjoying some good old Costa Rican hospitality.

    We are a family of four two children aged 16 and 18 and really fancy Costa Rica. We would be in the country for about two weeks and would look for a mix of jungle wildlife and beach. Maybe for-five days jungle/volcano and the remainder lazing around. Any suggestions for a couple of areas. We would hire a car so dont mind a little driving around but do not want to be spending all day in a car. Any suggestions would be mopst helpful.

    Is it safe for a woman to be alone in Costa Rica Obviously I will be using caution but do need to take taxi’s etc. From the airport to the B& B and will get recommendations. But…I’m told cash is the best to bring. Think I may need a money belt? Any tips?

    I have received three quotes for car rental for our trip. I was in the hopes some of you could give me advice about which of these seemed the best for price/reputation/service. Can you compare the size of the Terios to the Bego for me? (both in regard to people space and luggage space?)

    As a graduation trip I (an older adult) am taking 4 18 year young women to Costa Rica. By the time we get to the beach we will have spent 5 nights in the Avenal/Monteverde area hiking, and zipping through the jungle. I would like a recommendation for a very nice place to stay with available night life nearby, nice beach/pool, and possible spa? Thanks

    If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.

    Normally I find blogs through the comments that other blogger leaves on those blogs, and so it adds to it.

    We (myself, my gf, and two friends of ours) are going to be in the arenal area for 3 or 4 nights in august. I’m trying to figure out where we should stay. The reason we wanted to stay near arenal is because of all of the activities around- the zipline, white water rafting, hot springs, etc…
