Once upon a time nearly every aspect of vacation travel looked quite a bit different than what we are used to today. A flight on a plane included larger seats, wider aisles, and real food being served with real utensils. Road trips were made with paper maps that we had to learn how to read and somehow unfold and then refold back while trying to drive. The majority of vacation rentals were sterile and cramped hotel rooms, in which we shared beds, televisions, and a single bathroom, no matter how many were in our traveling party. Although all of the above have changed, however, many people still consider a hotel room as their first option for accommodations. We at Coastal Resort Rentals, located in Ocean City, Maryland, want to help you, our treasured guests, realize the beauty of the new ways to travel, and this guide will do just that.
Saving Money
Vacations can be expensive, but your Ocean City journey does not have to be as pricey when you choose our Coastal Resort Rentals for your home sweet vacation home. Unlike the hotel you may have been considering, we don’t charge resort fees, parking fees, fees to use the elevators, or fees that are assessed simply because our name is highly acclaimed in the vacation rental business. So, even if the number on the bottom of the page may look a little higher, delving deeper will show you that we can save you money. Fully equipped kitchens keep you and your family from being forced to dine at restaurants for every single meal (although we hope that you will explore the culinary landscape at least a few times during your getaway) allowing the opportunity to stay in, utilize all the amenities, and relax, using your savings to buy more souvenirs or to put away for a return trip to paradise.
Spacious Retreats
Road trips were always fun when we were young, our parents would stop at the world’s largest frying pan, cross, taking pictures of the family in front of half buried Cadillacs and seated in the Flintmobile outside that Flintstone Park in Arizona. But inevitably, the sky would darken and dad (it was always dad who drove) would tire and he pull into a roadside motel where all fun would stop. Amenities ended at a continental breakfast and a questionably sanitary pool, and as all five of us piled into a single room, watching the single tv, and sharing the single bath, squabbles would flare into full-on battles. Our Coastal Resort Rentals, however, offer cozy comforts and spacious floorplans. Even the spaces with fewer bedrooms will generally offer multiple bathrooms, multiple televisions, and we can promise that no one will have to sleep on the floor on a pile of blankets, unless they want to. And at the end of every day, everyone can retreat into their own bedrooms, shutting the door against the world, and reveling in the peace and tranquility that is yet another luxury amenity you will find in our beachy escapes.
Amenities Make the Difference
We’ve already mentioned the Continental breakfast and pool that were the main sources of amenities in the hotels and motels of our youth, but now it is time to discuss the long list of amenities you will discover in our Coastal Resort Rentals sanctuaries. Resort style pools, community hot tubs, barbecue areas, and even private beaches may be some of the amenities you will find outside your escape. Inside, you may find fireplaces that will add warmth and romance to your vacation adventures, premium beds topped with Egyptian cotton linens, and televisions that are from this century and don’t have the remotes chained to the bedside tables. Fully equipped kitchens may be furnished with high-end appliances, offering stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and an ambience that reminds you the room really is the heart of the home. Beachfront retreats will offer balconies lined with comfortable chairs, enabling guests to sit outside and watch the sun set over the water every evening and some spaces may even offer private balconies off the primary suite.
Feeling at Home Even as You Are Miles Away from Your Own Home
When you begin to compare a hotel to our Coastal Resort Rentals escapes, your biggest pro in the resort column may be one that you never even considered when clicking the book now button on the page. You will feel the difference when you step inside for the first time, feeling welcomed, comfortable, and at home while miles away from your own home. We put a lot of thought into what all we can do to make our guest feel at ease when staying with us, and we consider our job well done when you do. Reserve your favorite Ocean City sanctuary today!
