January 19, 2005, Norfolk, VA –As more and more families are keeping in touch via the Internet, today more than ever, it’s easier to arrange family reunions. According to a recent statistic from the Travel Industry Association of America, 27% of travelers (56.2 million) choose a destination in order to attend a social or family event. Traditionally family reunions have been coordinated in hotels or on campsites, but now families can choose the convenience of staying in a vacation home rental.

Vacation home rentals are cost-effective lodging choices that can be found all over the US and can sleep as many as 20 people. Home rentals are convenient because you have the use of a kitchen and other amenities such as a washer & dryer, outdoor grill, Internet access and more. Recreational amenities such as a volleyball net, hot tub or private swimming pool add to the enjoyment of the event. These are unique amenities that cannot be found in a hotel room.

Another perk is that some rentals are pet-friendly. The Travel Industry Association of America reports that 14% of all U.S. adults (29.1 million) say that they like to travel with pets. These rentals make it easy to include pets in the family event. Most hotels are not pet-friendly and campsites leave pets vulnerable to nature’s pests, making a home rental a comfortable choice for lodging animal family members.
