Disney Vacation Home Rentals versus Hotels – The Truth About Convenience

When it comes to convenience, do Disney home rentals really compare favourably to the more traditional option of staying in a hotel? Many people have used hotel accommodation for many years, and claim that as far as convenience is concerned, having someone serve up your food and make the beds each day is preferable to self-catering in a private home. However, most people who make these claims are unlikely to have investigated the idea of renting a private home near Disney World for their vacation, because in terms of convenience, there’s really no argument.

Let’s be clear – hotels offer a great service if you’re by yourself or just with a partner, but when you throw children into the equation, the whole thing becomes a different ball game. Read more »

Jersey As A Vacation Spot

Jersey, one of the Channel Islands in the English Channel (in contrast to Jersey, USA), is a small yet beautiful island, perfect for a short holiday.

The island itself is as far south as France (St. Malo is less than 4 miles away and visible on a clear day) and so whilst still part of the British empire it benefits from far better weather.

This weather means not only an ideal place for camping, beaches and outdoor persuits but also you will see a profusion of plants and animals not normally seen on mainland Britain. Read more »

Does Timeshare Work?

I am not going to be one that simply knocks timeshare for the sake of doing so. I am sure it has some advantages; but I worry when I read “when you buy timeshare on the resale market, you are already ahead of the game, as used properties are significantly less expensive than new ones.” (Consider a Timeshare for your family Vacations, by David Chandler).

Writers on timeshare seem to agree that one is lucky to get 50 cents on the dollar with a resale. Some, very cynical about the benefits, say that the chances of timeshare sales-personnel buying into their own product is almost nil. Most categorically claim it is 0%. Not sure if this is quite the case, but people are becoming very disillusioned; no mistake about that. It has become expensive and there is no guarantee of being able to just take off at your specified week; and trust me swapping doesn’t always work. School holidays in various countries are different, and annual fees are on the increase. Read more »

Your timeshare room will be 4 star Hotel standard - minimum

Why the hell do people buy timeshares? I mean you pay anywhere from $5000 to $150,000 for these properties that you can only stay at 1 to 2 times yearly…oh and sometimes you can buy a fractional one and only be allowed to go there every other year! Then when you get sick of going to your new purchase probably after the 1st or 2nd year if you want to go somewhere else you have to pay a transfer fee to transfer your week so you can enjoy a new destination. On top of all that crap you have to pay a yearly maintenance fee for the ownership privilege that you “had to have”. Am I crazy or Am I missing something here? The only thing that you own are the bills! Read more »

There are many options to choose from when choosing among Perdido Key rentals in Florida. In fact, the options are so many and so varied, it helps to have a very clear view of what you want to do and accomplish in the Perdido Key area before doing any research on gulf shore condos and certainly before making a reservation. Here are some things to consider:

Your Perdido Key rental decision should be influenced by who is vacationing with you. Family vacations are very different from romantic getaways, and many families prefer to stay in Perdido Key rentals near kid-friendly attractions like zoos, water parks and nature reserves.
On the other hand, if you’re taking a romantic interlude with your significant other, you may wish to reserve a Perdido Key rental that is farther away from such attractions and where fewer children are likely to be staying. Read more »
