If you want the chance to enjoy some of the finest vacation destinations in the world without going broke, then condo rentals may be the perfect option for you. Condo rentals offer many advantages over hotel rooms and timeshares besides the enormous cost savings. The luxury condos are available in various sleeping accommodations and it is a great way to take your family on an affordable vacation whether it is skiing in Colorado.

Think of a condo rental as your home away from home. A condo can range in size from a studio to three or four bedrooms. A timeshare condo usually features stereos, sleeper sofas in the living room, and full-to-king-sized beds in the bedrooms. The kitchens are usually equipped with all of the essential appliances, as well as every pot, pan, dish and piece of silverware that you would need to prepare and serve a meal.

While staying at the vacation condo, you will typically have access to a fitness center, swimming pools and/or spas, and laundry facilities; although some condos even have a laundry room within the unit. Some even offer children’s play areas or babysitting facilities for vacationing families. Many condos also offer at least one balcony with a spectacular view of the surrounding area.

There are multiple options for finding condo rentals for your vacation. If you would like to enjoy a timeshare resort without being a timeshare owner, then you can take advantage of their non-owner rentals. When condos are not reserved by owners, resorts will rent them to keep from losing money or having empty units.

Of course, you could also choose to become a timeshare condo owner and share ownership of the condo with others; therefore, you would share vacation time throughout the year. Finally, some condos are rented like hotel properties, with guests making reservations online or by telephone and then checking in at a main office.

Condo rentals are an excellent vacation option. For families, a vacation condo can provide a more home-like atmosphere, making it possible for parents to take children without needing multiple hotel rooms to have a moment of privacy. For couples, condos can be the ultimate indulgence, allowing you to indulge in candlelit dinners and a hot tub. Condos are available in so many sizes and in so many destinations that everyone can find the perfect fit for their vacation needs.

When visiting Barcelona, staying in a hotel is the first thing most people think of. However, there are other options which often make more sense. Firstly, they generally offer more privacy than a hotel – you can come and go as you please without having to leave your keys with a concierge.

Most apartments come fully furnished, including a full kitchen. This enables you to dramatically cut down on costs by preparing some of your meals in your Barcelona apartment, perhaps using ingredients from one of the great food markets, to be found in most neighbourhoods. Many have a terrace, so you can while away a pleasant evening with a bottle of wine, eating “al fresco”.

If you are travelling as a family or a group to Barcelona, the cost per person per night for your vacation rental can be significantly less than in a hotel. There are also usually discounts for stays of 7 nights or more. It can work out even cheaper if some of your group do not mind sleeping in a sofa bed.

When searching for vacation rentals in Barcelona, it is best to used an established agency rather than direct with the owner, as there are horror stories of people being scammed or left stranded, or put in low quality accommodation far from the city center. With an agency you have a lot more security and you will have someone to turn to should there be a problem. There are some good vacation rental agencies in Barcelona that have been around for a few years, and generally offer good service, with high quality, well maintained apartments and dedicated check in service.

Booking your vacation online is simple, the best sites have up to date availability, and you are able to book directly online, paying a deposit with your credit/debit card. The rest is usually payable on arrival, with an additional refundable security deposit to cover any damage.

The location of your vacation rental in Barcelona is important. The most popular areas to stay are around the Ramblas – the Gothic quarter and el Raval. Here, you are close to most of the tourist attractions and well connected to the rest of the city and to the airport. However, the center of Barcelona can get very busy and crowded in peak season, with some noise at night. If you are looking for something a little quieter, try the Eixample areas, Gracia and el Borne.
