If you've never rented a vacation rental in the past, it may seem intimidating, but renting someone's private home for your beach vacation is becoming a very popular choice, particularly for families with children, pets, or groups vacationing together. There are many reasons to choose vacation rental lodging over a hotel or motel, but here are our top five. Once you have experienced this type of vacationing, we are confident that you will agree staying in a real home beats a cramped hotel room any day!
If you are vacationing with family, staying in a hotel often means sharing a room, which can feel, crowded. Hotel and motel rooms typically are 150 - 300 square feet, compared to the 900 - 1250 square feet of space in vacation home found at Vacations by the Sea. Also, you may end up needing to rent multiple rooms, which can complicate logistics during your stay. Vacations by the Sea condos can sleep up to six people in our two bedroom units and you will have room to stretch out like in your own home, while still maintaining the closeness which is one of the reasons for your vacation.
Most hotels or motels won't allow pets but your canine companion is always welcome in one of Vacations by the Sea's pet friendly vacation condos. Whether in an oceanfront unit or close to the dog walk area, we have something for everyone. See our condo page to search for homes that will accommodate the furry members of your family.
Do you enjoy eating out while vacationing but wish you could cook some of your own meals? In hotel rooms, there usually is no cooking option or only a small, cramped kitchenette that always seems to be missing the pots or pans you need most. Staying in a Vacations by the Sea condo you have the flexibility of cooking your own meals if you choose, such as fresh seafood from the dock, but also enjoying fine dining nearby. All of our condos are fully equipped with the utensils, pots, and pans to make your cooking and dining happen with ease.
Are there times that you would rather just stay behind and relax than participate in a group outing? In a hotel, staying in your room might not be very appealing. In a Vacations by the Sea Condo, you have a variety of places to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet. Our condos are just like your home with comfortable couches, chairs, and tables. Many condos include a fireplace to cozy up in front of with a good book. All our vacation condos have a private patio or deck to lounge on and enjoy the sun, salt air, and ocean views.
Many of Vacations by the Sea's units are equipped with their own Jetted Jacuzzi Tub. Travel with the group but enjoy your own private soak without feeling crowded. We also have a large Hottub located at the clubhouse if you want to make a relaxing soak a group affair. Our outdoor hottub is a great spot to soak with friends or make new ones.
