As one of the top vacation destinations in the U.S., beach lovers naturally flock to Florida. However, a getaway doesn't have to cost thousands of dollars. Staying in a Florida vacation rental saves tourists hundreds, even thousands of dollars on vacation accommodations. Guests can easily book a more private and secure vacation rental in Florida for a third of the price of staying in a crowded hotel – all while enjoying proximity to free things to do, helping travelers save even more money.



In the northwest Florida panhandle, top beach destinations offer affordable vacation rental homes and easy access to attractions and entertainment. Panama City Beach condo rentals are located on the Gulf within walking distance to several things to do and restaurants, saving travelers money on car rentals and gas costs. Along scenic Highway 30A, guests can choose between dozens of South Walton vacation rentals spread throughout 16 unique beach communities. Visitors can even rent a bike and ride through the entire area on the 30A bike trail. Not only does this provide low-cost transportation options; it's also a unique way to see the area and meet locals. Next door to South Walton sits the “world's luckiest fishing village,” also known as Destin. Guests can find a variety of Destin rentals in all sizes and styles located near fishing hot spots and other family-friendly activities.

Heading south into mid-Florida, travelers will find Clearwater and St. Petersburg – both of which are located outside the Tampa area and feature free outdoor recreation options and attractions. Clearwater vacation condos provide proximity to popular landmarks such as Pier 60, which hosts free live entertainment and is a well-known place to watch famous Florida sunsets. Located in the Tampa Bay, St. Petersburg is known for its artsy vibe, attracting arts and culture lovers of all ages. This area also hosts Gasparilla season, one of the most popular events in the Tampa area. St. Petersburg also offers vacation homes in Madeira Beach and Treasure Island, known as a secret spot for sunsets and water adventures.

South Florida houses popular getaways such as Miami and the Upper Florida Keys. Guests who vacation in Miami have access to hundreds of free events, delicious restaurants and popular nightlife venues. Additionally, many South Miami vacation rentals are located on golf resorts, providing easy access to challenging greens and all-in-one resort accommodations. Only an hour's drive from Miami International Airport sits the Upper Florida Keys and Key Largo, two top snorkeling spots in Florida. Travelers who book a Key Largo vacation rental have access to the area's free events, walkable neighborhoods and laid-back island lifestyle. With so many affordable accommodations and free things to do, it's no wonder Florida is the go-to spot for beach vacations and relaxing getaways.
