Essential Savvy Travel Tip: Before you book an Airbnb /vacation rental, research the local laws governing short term vacation rentals at your destination. The big listing websites like Airbnb, Vrbo, Expedia, Tripadvisor, Booking.com, and other travel search engines DO NOT require their listings to prove legality or permits before allowing a Host to list their property!
