Let’s Ask Some Questions!

First up, how does one choose a destination when everything on the market, sounds like so much fun? It’s time to ask some serious questions to help narrow down your selection of locations.

 

Question 1: City, Beach, or the Countryside?

This inquiry alone will help you immensely. Are you looking at the city as an option for a travel spot? Nothing is better than New York City, the Big Apple; you name it – New York has it. Plus, it’s playground is a lot larger than you imagine it to be, even on the small Manhattan Island, the city dominates.

Want something a bit more subtle, like a beach? Head south and by south we mean the Caribbean for soft, sandy beaches for miles. All of our options will get you in the perfect relaxation mode, plus it’s a destination where your worries can float away.

Does countryside living sound perfect to you? Look into a European vacation destination. Our Rentals in Italy, France, and Scotland will place you smack-dab in the middle of miles and miles of sprawling countryside.

Question 2: Warm or Cold Weather?

Planning your getaway is also incumbent upon the weather – do you want to go somewhere sunny and warm, or crisp and cool? This question mainly just separates which hemisphere you’d like to be on – North or South.

For nice cooler weather, check out our rentals in the United States especially around Utah for a beautiful view of the mountains while also staying cozy in the cabin-like rental options. It’s a great choice year-round, as the season’s change, so does the temperature, but it won’t be as warm in the summer as say, the Caribbean or other locations south of the border.

Need something a little warmer? Summertime in Central America is ideal for anyone wanting to be toasty warm while sipping on some tequila. Many of our fabulous rentals in Mexico offer decks for lounging, while a few of them are just a few steps away from the beach. You’ll love the warm air and soft ocean breeze when you visit.

Question 3: What are the Local Amenities?

What would you like to do doing during your vacation? This topic is a big one because how you spend your vacation and what you do can change the entire trip!

Being adventurous can get you to see new sights, experience the land, and enjoy fun activities that get you moving. While relaxing is also fantastic, spas or lounging by a pool can bring peace and tranquility to any getaway.

However, you decide to enjoy you trip know that there are plenty of amenities around the world to keep you busy as bee or soaking in the much-needed rejuvenation of a vacation.
