Affordable Spring Vacations in the Sunshine State

04-07-2009

Miami, FL, April 7, 2009—Who says a spring vacation in the sun is just for kids? Mom and Dad need a break, too, especially in this time of non-stop depressing news. And, lest you think you shouldn't spend money on a vacation right now, think again.  Domestic air fares are down to peanuts and vacation rentals are so inexpensive, you can't afford not to go.  Rentalo.com, the leading online vacation rental directory, has dozens of vacation rentals—apartments, townhouses and villas—all over the sunshiney state of Florida.  And many of them are close to grown-up pleasures like golf, tennis, shopping and theater, as well as fun for the whole family.  What's more, Rentalo's "Worry-Free Lodging Guarantee" provides up to $5,000 of protection so you can book with confidence—and it's free.  Here, some of the possibilities for a great Florida vacation:
