Calgarians nurture old-world Caribbean hideaway
When Calgary real estate consultant George Reti and wife Marilyn purchased East Winds Inn in April 2006, they did so with a purpose: preserving and enhancing one of St. Lucia's few remaining resorts of bygone days and protecting the five-hectare oceanfront property from modern, large-scale development.
Earl Could Force Evacuations Ahead Of Labor Day
A powerful Hurricane Earl threatened to sideswipe much of the East Coast just ahead of Labor Day, worrying countless vacationers who planned to spend the traditional last week of summer at the beach.
Mont Tremblant. Located in the spectacular Laurentian Mountains of the Canadian province of Quebec, Mont Tremblant offers its visitors over 600 acres of land for skiing and snowboarding. Perhaps the best choice if you are looking to take to the slopes, keep in mind that the US dollar is worth more in Canada and can go further than it would on a vacation in the United States.
Alaska. If you are traveling with children, Alaska may be the perfect vacation choice for you. Offering everything from dog sledding, one of Alaska's most popular sports, to viewing the Northern lights, Alaska is one of the best winter vacation destinations. Although it is notorious for its cold, wintry weather, Alaska also holds a number of entertainment options that are likely to keep the whole family busy.

Consider ongoing maintenance. How will you keep the house up if you're not there all the time, particularly if it's subject to a wide variety of weather conditions?
Factor in the cost of hiring a local individual or service to look after the property in your absence.

Check with the HOA, if there is one, for any restrictions on renting out your property. You may be limited in the amount of time the property can be occupied by someone else.
Look out for Uncle Sam, who gets into the act too: If you make a vacation home available for rent for more than 14 days in a year, the IRS categorizes it as an
income property rather than a residence. You'll be paying taxes on the net rental income after expenses, which could bump you into the next tax bracket.

Variety is a key element of vacation rentals, perhaps the one that ends up winning most people over. Traveling with the family? Large houses are available. Just you and your significant other? An intimate island dwelling will be a perfect fit. From two bedrooms to six, there’s a size to fit all needs. Full kitchens make fixing your own meals possible (or just drinks and snacks, restaurant lovers) and living rooms and patios are conducive to socializing with your fellow travelers in a way that usually isn’t possible. Without soccer practice, housecleaning and getting stuck in traffic there’s a lot more time to sit down and talk (or play games, or go for walks, or build sand castles…).
Because of the homey nature of these properties, many people choose to stay for several days at the very minimum. Extended vacations are good for the soul and Montego Bay Vacation Rentals provide the proper venue for making a great escape from the land of responsibility without fear of claustrophobia or cabin fever setting in.
Pictures, testimonials, maps and more are all available to educate you on your way to becoming a vacation rental expert, so prepare to enjoy the journey.
