ChiIL Out With Wyndham Vacation Rentals & National Vacation Rental Month--July #travel #vacations #AD

ChiIL Travel Kids ride in style!

Did you know July is National Vacation Rental Month?   Here at ChiIL Mama and ChiIL Travel Kids, we love to travel!   This summer we've already hit the Indiana Dunes, Michigan and Wisconsin, and we make the most of sweet home Chicago as well.   In a few weeks we'll be road tripping to see relatives in Cincinnati and then we'll be shooting a travel feature in Vail, Colorado!

The only thing we dig more than travel is saving money on vacation so we can put it toward our next travel fund!  So, we were stoked when Wyndham Vacation Rentals asked us to partner up for a sponsored post.   They've got the scoop on how to save money and stay in style.

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   We've chosen to raise savvy, urban kids in the heart of Chicago.   So we make it a point to vacation where the trees are taller than the buildings, and get them out into nature, oceans and mountains.   If you're from a small town, venture into the city.   If you live in the urban jungle, hit the wilderness.   Variety is key.   For a true vacation, change your scene.

Staying in a vacation rental offers more space and many of the conveniences of home such as fully-equipped kitchens, washer/dryers units and multiple bedrooms.

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   We like to save $$ stocking up on breakfast goodies,  beverages and snacks.   Then we spend the extra savings on nice dinners out and fun activities.  Full kitchens rock!

For peace of mind, book with a professionally managed vacation rental provider such as Wyndham Vacation Rentals® that has a "Vacation Rental Bill of Rights®" service pledge ensuring quality standards (vetted rentals with accurate images), comprehensive customer service and real-time payment and bookings.

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   Just like internet dating... that hot model in the photo may be too good to be true on the DIY rental listings.   Go with a pro and know what you're getting.   Vacation time is too short and sweet to waste in a musty, moldy, misrepresented place!

**Wyndham Vacation Rentals is offering summer deals at up to 35 percent off nightly rates on bookings made throughout July at www.WyndhamVacationRentals.com **

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   We save our change in a big coin jar marked vacation fun funds and it adds up!   Of course we're not opposed to a little help from our friends, like Wyndham Vacation Rentals' smokin' 35% off, to save even more.

In the U.S., Wyndham Vacation Rentals' properties range from private homes, resorts condos and villas in beach destinations such as Florida, South Carolina, Delaware and Alabama's Gulf Coast to mountain-side condos and luxury cabins in Colorado, Utah, Tennessee and Idaho.

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   Highways are sweet for speed, but true adventures lie off the beaten path.   We love the roads less traveled and try to pick local mom n pop restaurants instead of chains.   If you're a tourist in town, look for where the cops stop and eat.   They know the good diners!

With Wyndham Vacation Rentals, travelers may enjoy the best of both worlds - the space and comfort of home with the conveniences and amenities of a hotel stay including housekeeping, Wi-Fi, shuttle services and a concierge desk.

*ChiIL Travel Tips:   It's tough to fit a family of 4 in one hotel room.   This past weekend we did that and no one got much sleep, the sibs thrashed around all night, and one kid ultimately ended up being shoved out of bed and spending the night on the floor.  True tale!   We could have had private rooms, peace, and space through Wyndham Vacation Rentals.

Charleston, SC is on our travel wish list.  Check out this sweet Charleston shot from Wyndham Vacation Rentals®.  South Carolina is close enough to Chicago for a road trip, far warmer in the fall & winter, and full of southern charm.

Of course, we'd be content as conch shells in this gorgeous Emerald Coast, Florida rental too!   Photo by Wyndham Vacation Rentals®.   

Make the most of National Vacation Rental Month--July, save some cash, and get out and make some memories!
