In listing the services that assist you to rent a vacation home or apartment, I have almost always featured the well-known HomeAway (
www.homeaway.com
) or Rentalo.com (
www.rentalo.com
), while always pointing out that certain smaller and purely local real estate agencies can also be of assistance in particular communities or resort areas. I have recently become aware, however, that a site called Vacation Home Rentals (
www.vacationhomerentals.com
) is second only to HomeAway in the popularity of its listings, and I'm chagrined that I have failed to mention it on earlier occasions. So please, add Vacation Home Rentals to the websites you consult in seeking an alternative, non-hotel accommodation. It claims to have more than 13,500 listings -- not simply in the United States but worldwide.
