Where would you rather spend your vacation? Inside a hotel room where the rates are probably burning holes in your pockets? Or in a spacious villa for long term rental in Antigua?
These days, people are looking for alternatives in order to get the most out of their vacation. Sure, all inclusive resorts can be great value for a Caribbean vacation, but in more laidback islands like Antigua and Barbuda, you can't find those anywhere. Your only option, therefore, is to stay in some cramped space (if you're on budget) or spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to stay in a hotel with a minimum number of amenities.
There isn't much choice in there, right? Or is there?
More Space, Less Cost
Many tourists are opting for properties available for long term rental in Antigua instead of staying at hotels.
With long term rental in Antigua, you could stay in your own private place during the entire duration of your vacation and get a real feel of the island at a microcosmic level: feel like one of the locals as you go home to the same neighborhood, shop in the same market, walk the same streets….
Most properties for long term rental in Antigua offer considerably more space than you will find in a typical hotel room. Additionally, long term rental in Antigua may prove to be a better choice, cost-wise. With a vacation rental, you can travel even with the whole family in tow and never have to worry about space or any of those concerns that typically plague you when the kids are around.
Flexibility, Convenience
