Best Vacation Rental Sites

What’s the hardest thing when you’re away from home and have kids?? I say the expense of always eating out and laundry!! With vacation rental properties like this one here you don’t have to worry about that any longer. Every moms dream! Dream right??!!

Instead of all of you cramped in a hotel room for a week wouldn’t you rather let your kids play in this great backyard and take a dip in the pool (and you in the jacuzzi at night)??!! I thought so……

We’ve stayed in a condo and this home and both times we were given a code we could use on the front door to let us inside. It is much easier than using a key, and when you leave for the day you just click the lock function and everything is secure until you get back.

Every property is different and depending on how big your family is, or how many people you are meeting there. Larger houses are great for family reunions or bridal shower getaways, would determine the size you’d need.

This vacation rental in Temecula California is just North of San Diego and in the midst of a lot of things to do like wine tasting, hot air balloon rides, and a large casino as well.

Vacation Rental Site for Families

We only have 3 kids but this house in particular was great because in 3 of the rooms were bunk beds.

They had many to choose from and it would be great for more than one family to get together and have the kids bunk together. There were essentially 2 master bedrooms too so you could easily share this residence.

On other stays we rented a condo and it was great mainly because when you rent a house vs. a hotel you have access to a full kitchen and laundry room!

Having the ability to cook at least one meal yourself each day saves a bunch of money and being able to do laundry before you leave and not have a bunch to do when you get home is a game changer for me.

  1. I just wondered if you’ve planned any marketing yet for you’re site. I’m self-employed doing this for various businesses for a number of years now, I feed my family doing it so I won’t complain. I have a way of getting immediate interested traffic and buyers to your site through social media channels and email. As well as getting more likes, followers for all of your social accounts. I have a new program that has just been completed that listens to all tweets being made, if a certain word or phrase is detected, we instantly send back to them a tweet that they should visit our site. We can use as many search terms as we want, 100’s of targeted visits a day. I can even help you make a site, fix site errors add updates etc. if you might need it.

    In addition to that, I’d also like to find out what your competitors have done that we havn’t done yet and address those issues asap. I’d also like to make a video or 2 about your site and get them to rank high pretty quickly. Lastly I have a large database of opt in customers that are interested in what it is you do, so if you’d like to expand your current newsletter list let me know, I can get you these records whenever you’d like them. They would get you instant leads by supplying you with a list of people or businesses that are looking for exactly what it is you’re offering.

    I use tools that a lot of people dont know about or don’t have time to use for themselves and would like to use them for your site. If your to busy with current clients I get it, I was just wondering was all. Let me know if youd like more information or references, I have more than I know what to do with.
