Check out this site if you’re interested in finding less expensive, roomier accommodations with more personality than a hotel next time you travel.  Homeaway.com lists vacation rentals worldwide that include homes, apartments, condos or other unique properties usually with kitchens and many other amenities.  

Searching is simple.  Put in your destination and the site brings up a list of rentals in the area including pictures, pricing, dates available, details about the place and reviews.  This is a great way to save money while traveling not only because the rentals often cost less than a hotel, but also because you have the option of cooking some or all of your own meals.  If you're traveling with kids, you can find properties that provide separate bedrooms so everyone has their own space to relax.  The site tells you the top seven reasons why these vacation rentals are preferable to hotels.
