What is a Vacation Rental?

A vacation rental, unlike a hotel, offers budget minded travelers more for their vacation dollar. Vacation rentals are typically condos or homes, furnished for longer stays with comfortable living areas, fully equipped kitchens, multiple bedrooms and bathrooms - more like a home away from home than just a place to sleep. While vacation rentals may seem a little more expensive on the surface, consider these points before dismissing them due to cost: Travel with friends and split the cost - vacation rentals have multiple bedrooms, so grab some friends, split the cost and save! Fully equipped kitchens allow you to eat more meals in and that can add up to huge savings!

Vacation Rentals are a great alternative to hotels and a great way to save money on your next vacation, but they are not for everyone. Renting a condo or home is perfect for large families or groups of friends who want all the comforts of home but can handle spending their vacation without the support of a large resort staff. Here are some things to expect: No daily housekeeping - housekeeping is typically performed after departure, expect to pay for this service since vacation rentals usually contract out this service. Bed linens & towels - ask if they are included, you may have an option to bring your own or rent them from the vacation rental company. Be sure to ask about pets before loading up your pooch - vacation rentals are usually owned by individuals who may or may not want pets in their property - expect to pay an extra fee for pet friendly accommodations. Front desk services are limited - vacation rental offices are usually not open 24 hours so try to arrive around check-in time and always ask if arrangements can be made for after hours arrival if you can't make it during office hours. Rent from a trusted rental management company - renting directly from an owner can save you some money but you might want to think about what you would do when you need assistance or the air conditioner goes out in the middle of the night, and the person that you rented from is in another state - vacation rental companies usually have 24 hour emergency maintenance and can assist you in minutes instead of hours or days.

I came to The Market Common yesterday, Monday Dec. 22 (yes my day off) and I had the most wonderful day with my kids and it only cost me $6.00. Yes fun can be had for cheap in such a high class enviroment. We saw "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas" at Grande 14 where we had popcorn and soda. We saw a magician and recieved "balloon reindeer" thats what they requested!! We saw the man in red himself (Santa) and had a photo taken to remember it by. We also rode on a horse drawn carriage!!! ALL FOR $6.00 (grand total not per person!!!) There is always something fun like this going on in The Common for free or cheap!!!

Do you want to experience an amazing day of shopping

The Market Common is truelly a site to behold, and experience!! It's honestly a "One Stop Shop"!! The vibe that radiates from this development is one that makes you feel ALIVE!!! There is always something interesting and fun going on, and the stores and food are amazing!!! Nowhere else in Myrtle Beach can you do some shopping at your favorite store, go to lunch at your favorite restaurant, see a movie that you've been waiting to come out, and grab the best Icecream you've ever had in one day without getting in back in your car!! And it's not a stuffy shopping mall, it's a beautifully landscaped, classy outdoor shopping enviroment. You may think I'm just saying this because I work here, but I feel privilaged to work @ ResortQuest, and if I didn't you better believe that I'd still be spending alot of time out here.
