10 things to consider when you rent a private

Renting a private home for your vacation is a great way to stretch your budget. And I think, is much more fun that he stayed in a hotel. You get the chance to experience local life on a different level and really an idea of what life in this part of the world. No matter where you travel, there are some things that before he considered himself a house and its surroundings.

1. Where to go. As soon as a country populated by deciding whetherI prefer a town, city, or something in between. Coast or inland? In the vicinity of known locations and guided tours (at least, with easy access to major roads)?

2. When would be. What is the optimal time, to avoid crowds, but still enjoy the nice weather ever? There is a special event that you want to see or part? "The celebration of Peppers" in the Basque town of Espelette (the last Sunday of October each year)? Midsummer in Sweden (on or about June 20)? Truffle harvestCroatia (October)?

3. Type of house. House, apartment, house boat? Teepee, yurt, treehouse? The decision to do so early in the search easier.

4. E 'son or a dog? If the pet is traveling to another country and bring to also make sure that you know what is required. If you have allergies, you probably want to stay away from home, that pets are allowed (or on a farm is). Hair and animal hairalways seem to linger, no matter how carefully you clean.

5. Privacy Policy. If you rent, it is private or part of a group of several apartment buildings (which is sometimes the case when a whole farm has been converted into an apartment)? This could mean you have to share some areas (eg laundry, or pool) with other travelers.

6. What is included? Make sure you know in advance whether the fees and household / cleaning feeare included. There are additional benefits? Sometimes the owner can arrange for you to access their fitness, resort facilities, etc. are

7. Employees or not? It's perfect occupied the house? Or just with a chef? Or maybe just a caretaker and gardener for a few days a week? You can cook a set, if one is not included?

8. What are your responsibilities and the need for common garden furniture cushions to be very emotional inside every night (in Europe)? They are required to keep all the blinds closed during the day to keep the heat? You need to clean the apartment before you leave? Make sure all the details in writing (seen in six languages), so there are no nasty surprises.

9. What services do you need? If you rent in Europe to consider that many of the popular American comfort are not common there. Things like mosquito nets, air conditioning, heated swimming pools, and alsoShower curtains are often not considered necessary.

10. help and local councils. Is there anyone who speaks English local random, you can contact in case something? Or if you just need help figuring out how to walk in the oven?

I hope this list a bit 'daunting not made you think of renting a private home on your next vacation, but it is always best to think first of all through the signing and delivery of a deposit. Once at the meetingPatio your home away from home, enjoying the view (the Tuscan landscape? Laguna emerald? Snowy mountains?) With a glass of wine in hand, you'll be glad you do your homework and decided to go off the beaten track hotel.
