HomeAway is Saving Summer Vacations
We are officially in the season of summer; schools are getting out and summer vacation leaves are being taken, and while most families would be planning their summer vacations, this summer is a bit different than the others that have preceded for quite some time. A lot of families simply don’t have the money to take their annual summer vacations this year and while some are just scaling back expenses or dipping into savings in order to do something fun for the summer, a lot of families cannot even do that.
That is why HomeAway, the world’s leading vacation rentals marketplace, has started a movement called Save Our Summer Vacation to help literally save summer vacations by petitioning Congress to proclaim August 7th as “National Vacation Day.” In addition to working toward National Vacation Day, HomeAway is also searching for the person who is most deserving of a week-long summer vacation.
If you know that you and your family are most deserving of a week-long summer vacation and drool at the mere thought of taking a break from stress, having enough space to truly relax, recharging and reconnecting with your family and friends, and of course, traveling in style without breaking your budget, all you have to do is submit a short text, video, or photo entry explaining why you deserve to have your vacation saved by HomeAway!
I find myself thinking about what my dream vacation would be quite a bit, particularly because it has been the same dream vacation since I was in the sixth grade. Since that time, I have been dreaming of going to Italy. I have also been fascinated and intrigued about Naples, Italy and more specifically, about Mt. Vesuvius. It isn’t that I just have a fascination with volcanos, but Mt. Vesuvius has always held a special place in my heart and since the sixth grade, I have read anything and everything I could get my hands on about it, poured over documentaries of Pompeii and have looked up prices on flight and hotel arrangements on several different occasions, but of course, finances have not allowed me to make those arrangements, so hands down, my dream $10,000 summer vacation would most definitely be to visit Italy and my beloved Mt. Vesuvius; and since HomeAway Vacation Rentals has savings tips and rentals at the some of the best prices I’ve seen, they are most definitely the best people to run a movement and to give a lucky person the vacation of their dreams!

My favorite summer vacation was Spain, Italy and France. Ahhh too bad summer will be ending soon… time flies
Work has been stressful. My husband and I could use a vacation right about now!
Great blog. All posts have something to learn. Your work is very good and i appreciate you and hoping for some more informative posts.
I’ve just came back with my family from a dream holidays in Sicily, Italy. I think the most important factor of good, relaxing holidays is planning. We’ve planned our journey very carefully; we hired a car to travel around the island which I think was the best decision we made and it turn up to be a good deal too. Car rental from a company called Avis was a really good choice-they provide with a great service. My favorite place was Agrigento – The “Valley of the Temples” which is a large archeological site surrounded by olive trees and almond orchards- stunning views.
I really recommend Sicily as a place to visit and make sure you plan it well!

This just made my day much brighter. Thanks a lot. Something else I across was this http://www.oasisrentals.com/ .Take a look!
Vacations are the best! I love the caribbean, the scenery is just breathtaking! Thanks for sharing this post!
HomeAway is pretty great, but recently I’ve been using Airbnb. You can find awesome vacation rentals for even cheaper
On homeaway you get to talk/e-mail directly to the owner. You get a chance to ask for a discount.
Inspired by your article we have already booked and paid a deposit on a wonderful Spanish Finca[farmhouse] for next year before the prices go up.
We will drive from the UK, and take as much of our store cupboard as we can fir in the car
