What's the best site to find vacation rentals?

4. I have also used VRBO

We rented a house in Hawaii (Big Island). Then two years later, rented a different house from the same owners, and they gave us a discount because we were already known to them as good renters. We also rented a condo on Kauai from VRBO.

You pay with a credit card so the risk is minimal. Don't just wire money. The site has good pictures and things like maps so you can get maximum info on what you are renting.

And it is so much nicer to have a real house with a kitchen and privacy, as opposed to a hotel room! Especially when you have kids or grandkids along!

I do prefer it to Air BnB, which charges an extra fee.
