Discover Vacation Homes raises the bar by providing quality assurance for vacationing public
ORLANDO, Fla.

The group unites the nation’s most respected vacation rental companies to serve as a resource for travelers seeking credible information, tools and recommendations on choosing the right vacation rental for themselves and their families. Resources underway include the fresh launch of a national category website, www.DiscoverVacationHomes.com. The site’s “Travelers” link features information designed specifically to assist consumers, including an interactive map that lists professional vacation rental companies nationwide, details about renting professionally managed homes versus other lodging alternatives, traveler testimonials, vacation rental planning tips and frequently asked questions. “With so many websites marketing and listing vacation rentals by owner, it’s important for travelers to know the benefits of renting professionally managed homes and condos,” explains Steve Trover, President of Discover Vacation Homes. “This is one of the main reasons we decided to come together - to unite our industry in raising the public’s awareness of the benefits experienced when staying in a professionally managed vacation home rental.” Vacation home rentals often cost less than a single hotel room, provide more space and, in many instances, amenities not found in one’s own home.
