No matter if you own and manage 1 or hundreds of vacation rentals it is wise to have a personal vacation rental website. It is our experience that bookings will increase if you can show that you are a legitimate vacation rental owner or manager.

Most vacation rental directories are in the form of a list. Furnished Homes was developed with the Google interactive map for searches.

Visitors can also filter the list from top to bottom or reverse by number of ... Read Full Story

The folks at Masterpiece Rentals asked me to take a look at their site and see what I thought about their Florida luxury rentals. And it couldn't have come at a better time.
