A warm, sunny place to gather for the holidays means that you get to ditch the cold while you celebrate. And no one has to clean their house for guests because you’ve discovered the magic of vacation rentals for the holiday season.
Even if you live in a place with a pleasant winter climate, you may still want to look at vacation rentals for the holiday season.
Either way, meeting family or friends for the holidays has some advantages over hosting people at your house.
You can pick a place close to a major tourist destination. This increases the chances of finding deals on flights. High demand for tourist destinations creates incentives for multiple airlines to offer service and discount deals.
No one’s house gets messed up by having house guests.
You can pick a place with enough rooms or beds for everyone to sleep comfortably. No one needs to get stuck on an air mattress or sleeping in a kid’s room with dolls and action figures.
You can pick a central location that reduces travel distances for you and your guests.
Vacation rentals for the holiday season open up many possibilities. You can select a location with amenities and nearby attractions that excite you and your companions.
Popular amenities for vacation rentals include:
- Golfing
- Pools
- Hot tubs
- Garages
- Handicap access
Vacation Rentals for the Holiday Season in Mesquite, Nevada
If your group wants a warm place in a quiet desert setting, take a look at Mesquite, Nevada. It’s east of Las Vegas and close to the Utah border. It’s close enough to Las Vegas that you can shop for airline deals for Las Vegas.
When I lived in Las Vegas, my husband and I liked to stay in Mesquite to get away from the big city.
Mesquite is ideal if you enjoy desert landscapes and golf but don’t want the noise, pollution, and crime of the big city. The desert around Mesquite is lovely, and the surrounding wilderness is soothingly quiet.
The small town has golf courses and casinos so you can find some fun day or night. The weather should be gently warm and maybe a bit chilly at night in November and December. Overall, it should be perfect for hot tubbing, hiking, and lounging in the sun during the winter holidays.
Zion National Park is a day trip away from Mesquite over the border in Utah.
