Planning a vacation to Mexico?  Do you have your hotel booked?  If not, take some time and consider a Mexico vacation rental instead.  There are many excellent reasons to rent a vacation property.  The following are our top 5.

1. Save Money

One of the first and foremost reasons that people will choose a vacation rental in Mexico is to save money on a hotel.  Especially for small groups, vacation rentals are almost always a better rate than getting various separate hotel rooms.  Even compared to all-inclusives, you can tailor your vacation experience to your needs and not pay for features and services that you won’t use.

 

2. Choose Your Favorite Beach

When people buy hotel package, they are usually just told that this hotel is in Playa del Carmen, for example.  Who knows what beach you’re on or exactly where the hotel is; it might be surrounded by green jungle or in the heart of Playa’s nightlife district.  (Both are great options, but it depends entirely on your taste.) So,why not do things the other way around?  In this example, search the internet for the beach in the Riviera Maya that is most suitable to your tastes and lifestyle, and then look for a rental nearby.

3. Find a Property That’s Your Style

The same is true of the property itself.  What do you prefer – a cozy condo with a pool and patio, where you’ll just be spending your sleeping hours anyway, or a large home with a spacious yard, private pool and terraces, etc.?  Colonial style or modern comfort?  You choose.

4. Enjoy Greater Privacy

You can choose to enjoy greater privacy, again, especially when traveling with a small group, but even just for a couple on a romantic vacation who would simply prefer that they be the only ones in their pool and terrace.  You can choose the amount of privacy you need, and it doesn’t always cost you more.

5. Discover a Great Real Estate Deal!

If you’ve been vacationing in Mexico for a while, it’s likely that the thought has crossed your mind to buy a property in Mexico.  If you’re renting in a complex, or even a home in a more residential neighborhood, you may be surprised to find that beautiful unit next door is for sale for a very good price.  You may very well discover your key to enjoying more of your life (or perhaps even full time living) in Paradise.

When you plan your vacations to Mexico, be sure to investigate the option of vacation rentals.  There are many benefits to doing so.
