The July RedWeek newsletter reports that in 2012 travelers are expecting to pay up to $1180 per person for their summer vacation (based on a survey by American Express). A big portion of the vacation budget goes to accommodations, a big portion goes to food, and a big portion goes to activities.
What if all of those three portions could come in together at a low ball number? Then you’d have plenty of the budget left over – for fun now, or for saving for next year’s budget-friendly vacation. It’s easy to do when you rent a timeshare. The cost is up to 50% less than a hotel, the fully-equipped kitchen saves on the cost of meals, and many of the resorts amenities and activities are included in the low rental price. Voila.
