How to Avoid Paying Booking Fees on Your Next Vacation Rental

AirBnB just announced that it made over $1BILLION in profits for Q3 2018. $1BILLION in 3months!!! Where do you think that money comes from--the homeowners listing their properties or YOU? The answer is BOTH. Homeowners are charged a percentage of their rent (or in some cases, an annual subscription fee of $500 or more) and guests are charged outrageous booking fees, ranging from $100 - $3500, depending on the amount of the rent and number of occupants. As the guest, you may not see these fees as they are often bundled into the total price, but you ARE paying them!

Water Illnesses and Water Safety

Nothing can ruin a vacation quicker than getting ill or having a child fall ill. Every year thousands fall ill with RWIs (Recreational Water Illnesses). These RWIs are cause by swallowing water in swimming pools, water parks, hot tubs, rivers, lakes, and even open bodies of water like the Gulf of Mexico. Anywhere people swim, RWIs can be found and can cause infections of the eyes, skin, ears, intestines and lungs.
