Owners of Florida vacation rentals are always looking for ways to advertise their properties in the most economical way and targeting sites that get them the biggest bang for their bucks. Following are a few tips that might help you determine where to spend your hard earned money to market your Vacation Rental on the Internet:

Advertising in the local news paper is very expensive, has a limited range for reaching potential renters and does not use the current method used by most folks researching the best deals. The Internet is where most people do their research, shopping & buying. In the book “How to Rent Vacation Properties By Owner”, author Christine Karpinski recommends that owners look for the following when selecting a website to advertise their properties:

A. Basic features that all Vacation Rental websites should have: The ability to easily create the listing in a comprehensive way. The ability to update and change your rates, photos and other listing info on a regular basis. The website should be listed within the Top 10 for search engines in your category.

B. Advanced features that are nice to have but not always available: Property availability calendars and reservation request forms. Foreign language and currency conversion to expand potential renter audience. Map features and links to your Property Website & Virtual Tour. Easy search functions that allow a potential renter to easily search for and find your property.

Vacation Rental websites typically charge a “Membership Fee” ranging between $99 and $300 per year. There are also many websites out there that are offering free listings.

Your objective should be to get as much visibility as you can for your properties by selecting vacation rental websites that place consistently on the 1st Page results on the major Search Engines Google, Yahoo, & MSN for Keywords related to your property and its location.

An example of a common search for properties located in Daytona Beach would be: Daytona Beach vacation rentals or vacation rental homes in Daytona Beach. There are any numbers of Keyword combinations to use when doing your search…just try to keep track of which Vacation Rental websites continue to show up during your search.

I usually make a list of the top 10 vacation rental portals when doing a search for vacation rentals in my city and then start paring it down by reviewing the number of rentals in my city and the quality of the site. Usually those two things go hand and handbut not always. I am often times amazed at the quality, or lack of, when referring to some of the most popular and effective vacation rental portals. Its nice to see that now some of the older sites are getting a face lift and making the whole experience more users friendly and appealing.

The bottom line is that, in order to receive inquiries and make bookings, your vacation home needs to be found when your potential renter is searching in your city. Each vacation rental portal offers something different in the way they allow you to make your Listing stand out. Do your homework and choose wiselyyour success in the “business” depends on it.

A new addition to the wealth of accommodation choices for holiday rentals in Barbados. Sapphire Beach Condominiums or Condos in Barbados for short was opened in December 2009 and select luxury self-catering apartments have been rented since then.

The property is a well laid-out 54-apartment complex with excellent Facilities spread over three separate ocean facing buildings and was designed by renowned architect Ian Morrison. It benefits from over 370 feet of beachfront which extends and expands onto the popular Dover Beach with its white sand and crystal clear turquoise waters. ALL apartments are beachfront and have direct ocean and beach views.

The location of the property very near St Lawrence Gap or The Gap on the south coast provides a level of convenience few other properties offer as many shopping, dining, entertainment and activity options are within easy walking distance. As a result, guests at Sapphire Beach in Barbados do not require a vehicle to access much of what visitors require such as banking and dining to grocery facilities and more.

The international airport in Barbados, Grantley Adams International Airport (airport code BGI), is a short 15 minute drive to the east and the island’s main city and shopping centre, Bridgetown is a similar short drive to the west.

Among the facilities available at Sapphire Beach in Barbados are two large beachfront pools, private off-road parking and a fully equipped gym. Common amenities to all apartments include air-conditioning, fully equipped Italian kitchens, telephone, cable TV and wireless internet.

Sapphire Beach extends onto Dover Beach which is one of the longer and wider white sand beaches found on the island and has mostly calm waters and is safe for swimming year-round. For the safety of locals and visitors alike there is a daily lifeguard presence as can be identified by the yellow lifeguard hut found there and on many of the other popular swimming beaches. Because of its beauty and popularity, Dover Beach hosts a wide range of both water sport and other beach rental service providers such as SunFish and catamaran sailing, boogey board, snorkel, beach lounges and umbrella rentals to name a few.
The property is located a short 15-minute drive from the airport in the south east and also from the main city Bridgetown in the south west. Barbados is a mostly flat coral island of only 21 by 14 miles (166 square miles) so getting anywhere is a short drive by comparison to most other travel destinations. As a mature holiday destination, the islands infrastructure such as road and road signage are also well developed.

Barbados is well-known for being safe and for the friendliness of its people so getting around and seeing the sights is recommended and locals will be happy to offer directions should you lose your way. Aside from renting a car, visitors can utilize the available public transportation of Government operated Mercedes coaches or the smaller privately owned busses and vans which can take you anywhere for no more than US$1.00 per trip. Bus stops are located along almost every road and in the case of Sapphire Beach are no more than five minutes’ walk away.

Through its history Barbados has been a British colony from 1628 to 1966 when it gained its independence as a independent island. As such the language spoken is English with a Caribbean flare or dialect referred to as Bajan. Islanders are referred to as Barbadians or Bajans. It functions as a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy, modeled on the British Westminster system, with Elizabeth II, Queen of England, as head of state. The island has had a history of stability both in its governance and its economic management and low crime making it an ideal location for investment. Unlike many of the other Caribbean islands, it has its own currency which is the Barbados dollar and is pegged to the US dollar with an exchange rate of 2 to 1 i.e. BDS$ 2 = 1 $US.
