Home Exchange is Your Key to Affordable Travel
Do you feel limited by the high cost of traveling?
Wish your family’s “staycation” could take place somewhere other than in your home?
With housing exchange, your biggest asset — your home — enables you to take unforgettable vacations on a budget. By swapping a stay in your home for a stay in someone else’s home, you can save thousands of dollars on your holiday.
Typically, 45% to 65% of the cost of a vacation goes to pay for lodging. Expect to spend $200 to $550 per night at a hotel. That totals $1,400 to $3,850 for a week, before taxes, parking, and other hotel fees. Plan to double that dollar figure if the size of your family necessitates two hotel rooms. The cost of renting a vacation home can range from $1,000 to $20,000 per week!
The high cost of lodging can mean forgoing vacations for lots of travelers who travel on a budget. However, lodging expenses no longer have to keep you from traveling…. The cost of vacationing with The Vacation Exchange Network for an entire week? Only $250 (for a Direct Exchange) or $500 (for an Indirect Exchange )!
Home swaps also enable you to skip restaurants for some meals, saving you an estimated $40 to $120 per meal for a family of four. Additionally, some home swaps come with beach passes, museum passes, discount attraction tickets, and the like, adding to the ways home swaps make travel affordable.
Of course, the tremendous savings you’ll realize by spending your vacation or holiday in someone’s home instead of a hotel is just part of the picture. Home exchange offers you the home base many people find lacking when they stay in a hotel. Even a staycation will feel like a real vacation when it is away from home! Additionally, a home offers you space and amenities that no hotel can offer. Home swappers enjoy the convenience of having a kitchen, laundry machines, comfortable sleeping and living rooms, and ample space for their family and their belongings. Many home swappers also value living like a local rather than like a tourist, an opportunity you’ll get when you stay in someone’s home rather than in a hotel.
