10 tips for saving money on a Florida vacation {Gadling}

Feb 15th 2010 7:08PM Defintely check out the Gulf Coast. From Alligator point to Perdido Key in the panhandle you can find some great "old Florida" charm without the normal tourist trap mentality.

If you are looking for a great place to find Condo, Homes and cottages on the Gulf side check out either Florida Gulf Vacation or Gulf Coast rentals. Both list a variety of rentals along our beaches - you won't be disappointed by your stay.

ResortQuest stings vacation home renters with huge cancellation fees, blogger says {Gadling}

Apr 11th 2008 11:31AM Be VERY LEERY of any of these "resort" companies. Most are nothing more than glorified timeshare rentals. If you are looking to book a vacation rental stick with going direct to the owner. Call them, quiz them, get photos from multiple sites and check the local chamber of commerce on the owner as well.

Sites like vrbo and rentalo are a good start, but make sure the property owner is real as these guys have seen a big increase in fraud on their pages. That is why local, niche, websites are better if they exist in the area you are looking to visit.

One example is http://www.floridagulfvacation.com or find listings a http://www.vrwd.com
