I see a lot of vacation homes for rent. What are the negatives of renting something like that instead of a timeshare at a resort?
Resorts still operate like hotels, so there is a check-in/check-out, housekeeping (if requested), room service, and always someone at the front desk to help. Timeshare resorts always have a calendar of activities for you and your family to enjoy (most are free and some have a small fee). You don’t get any kind of personal or extra service when renting a vacation home. With timeshares you also don’t have to worry about obtaining the keys before check-in, not having anyone to complain to if something goes wrong or the room is not up to your expectations, and you don’t have to worry about getting scammed (at least with renting through us). As soon as you pay in full, we provide you with your confirmation and check-in details, so you can call the resort itself to verify you truly do have a reservation.
