For tourism and vacationing Europe is a very beautiful region of the world. Every 1 in 3 Americans wish to vacation in the breathtaking Europe. Some people like to visit Europe because they have their European heritage like French, Italian, German etc. etc. and others wish to go just to have fun and have a good time. Travelers from all around the world have read so much about the beautiful Europe that it remains at the top of their holiday destination (I wish I had the money to travel to Europe!). We often see the beautiful movies filmed in the European heavenly locations, their diverse culture, food, languages and so much so that we all crave to tour this continent.
However, if you plan to vacation in Europe the first thing that comes to your mind is which hotel you are going to stay in. You will be terribly spending a lot of time surfing through the best hotels available there; but not anymore since nowadays there has grown a brand new trend called ‘Holiday Homes’ or “Vacation Homes”. These are just the properties owned by different individuals who want their properties to be rented out and become a source of income. Today, vacation homes or holiday homes are found not only in Europe but anywhere in the world.
These homes are getting popularity by leaps and bounds and the reasons why vacationers or tourists prefer them over the regular hotels seem many. Some of the most common and more logical are listed below:
First most hotels are normally very expensive. On the other hand, holiday homes don’t charge you as much for almost the same amenities plus their charges are even negotiable. On top of that they provide you a homely atmosphere.
In a hotel you get merely a room while when you rent a vacation home it means you are getting the whole house. So the space you get in a holiday home is by no means comparable to what you get in a hotel. Besides, you get your own drawing room, your own dining room, your own kitchen, your separate car parking, even your private garden and a balcony. Can you get all these things in a hotel for almost the same charges?
Now we come to very crucial issue guess what? Yes, you have guessed it right! The food (which is for many people the sole reason we live our lives). Of course we holiday to have some good time and what more fun we can have if we own the kitchen. Just order the ingredients from the local market and have our favorite meal cooked or prepare ourselves (if we are a good cook!). While even in the best of hotels we are always dependant on the hotel menu for all our breakfasts, lunches and dinners during our stay. So, we do not have to suppress our desire to eat our favorite meal when we hire a holiday home. We are like the kings ourselves!
Privacy to some people is everything. Again vacation homes have won the lead. In hotels same entry and exit ways are used for all the guests, however especial you are. You confront a lot of people, sometimes it gets crowded and that is what many people especially celebrities don’t like. You have to use the same swimming pool shared by many. However, vacation homes offer you unparalleled privacy; you have your private pools which are to be used only by
you and your family. Your own private dining, your separate entry and exit ways and everything are only limited to you and your family. And that extra care makes you feel special and nice. Needless to mention, that it creates a tranquilizing environment too.
Vacation homes particularly the European ones are situated in the countryside, but the hotels are in the cities only. Hence, you experience an aesthetic view from the windows of your holiday home which really is very eye-softening.
If the holiday home you rent is situated in the rural area then it gives you the opportunity to explore the countryside by walking into the villages to visit the locals. Get to learn about their culture, their lives etc. If you love more urban setting, a beach house would be perfect to know the local people by living among them.
Holiday homes are available for rent with a wide range of different price-tags depending on their sizes, what luxuries and amenities they will offer you, are they newly built or constructed 20-30 years back. So you have to see your needs and your pocket.
Last but not the least if you want to get the real taste of a region; want to know their people; then always stay in vacation homes because most hotels are situated in more urban areas. You get the chance to see only the tourist hot spots. Whereas holiday homes offer you the opportunity to mingle with the people if you want to! Take yourself great care see ya.
