Free Florida Vacation Rentals by Owner Listings

Your Travel Buddy announces “Y.T.B Vacation Rentals by Owner”, the first website that allows vacation rental owners to advertise their properties for free with more listing features than the industry leader. Some vacation rentals by owner websites usually advertise free listings only until they have reached some goal or membership milestone, then charge property owners to remain active after 6 months to a year.The goal is to provide the world's largest free vacation rentals directory.
Your Travel Buddy announced it’s only totally free vacation rentals by owner service that neither charges vacation rental owners a yearly fee, nor commissions for property bookings. At the same time, it assists vacationers in searching and booking vacation rentals online.
“Until now, marketing vacation rentals on the Internet has been very expensive with yearly fees amounting up to $200 per property.” said Brent Vanderstelt, co-founder of YTBvacationrentals.com. “On top of that, the outdated technology and poor quality of these websites do not justify such a high price. As vacation rental owners we believe that every vacation rental owner should be able to list their property for free and at the same time benefit from more features and higher technological standards. And Your Travel Buddy does just that.”
On Y.T.B Vacation Rentals by Owner, owners can effortlessly tailor their property’s directory listing, which includes a photo gallery, an interactive map (via Google Maps), an availability calendar, and many other easy-to-use features. The listing aims to increase the owner's vacation rental income by promoting the accommodation to a national and international audience.
Y.T.B Vacation Rentals by Owner will be advertiser supported with Goodle Adsense and our travel provider partner Your Travel Buddy. Your Travel Buddy will provide travel booking technology to provide flight search, car rentals, hotels, cruises, vacation packages, golf vacations, event tickets and attractions, concert tickets, professsional sporting event tickets, adventure travel trips.

Travelers and Vacationers use Menus Online

I recently stumbled onto a nifty website that came in handy while traveling the U.S. and thought I would pass it on. This is a great service to offer your guests that have made an inquiry for or booked time at your vacation rentals.

MenuPages allows visitors to post reviews and owners to post their restaurant menus online. For example, there are over 6,700 Menus posted for Manahattan New York City Restaurants alone! Currently MenuPages services major cities including: New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, Washington, DC and South Florida.

You can search for a specific cuisine like Cuban, Thai or Vegetarian (and many more). Or search by neighborhood such as the Financial District or Soho. In addition, you can read reviews, post a review of your dining experience and print a menu.

Most vacation rental owners and managers have welcome books for their guests. More travelers than ever are looking online for vacation rentals and would like to see nearby restaurants (you can show them on Furnished Homes Maps soon too). Those of you in major cities may want to provide the web address for MenuPages in your welcome books, on your personal vacation rental websites or in your confirmations to visitors. Bon Apetite!
