Should you rent a car in Hawaii

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

With the exception of Oahu there’s really no public transportation on any of the other islands so having a car is really the only way to get around. Many people ask me if it’s really necessary to to have a car on a Oahu. In my opinion, the answer to that question is yes. It’s always helpful to have a car even on Oahu because most of the time you’re going to be staying in Waikiki which is a very busy metropolis with lots of action and lots of people. If you want to experience the real beauty of Oahu then it really is a good idea to rent a car and drive to the many beautiful parts of the island that you never see in Waikiki. For example, you can drive to Lani Kai Beach which is one of the most beautiful beaches […]

Kauai Vacation Rentals Poised for Restriction

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

News surfaced a few days ago that legislation set on limiting the number of vacation rental properties rented to short-term visitors is gaining steam on the island of Kauai in Hawaii. Bill 2204, as referenced here, would effectively place a limit on the number of vacation properties to be used in such a fashion by not allowing anyone who doesn’t currently rent their property to do so in the future.
Current owners who have paid the appropriate taxes for the current year would be ‘grandfathered’, and free to continue to operate their vacation rental as in the past. New owners looking to enter the market would be unable to use their property for other visitors.
This possible ‘ban’ on vacation rentals in the area comes on the heels of countless other similar news stories coming to light from Alabama to Washington State. While many 2nd […]

Spring Cleaning Your Vacation Rental

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

Spring has often been the proverbial default time to do a little house cleaning, why should your vacation property be any different? The weather has heated up, and after surviving the winter most homes, condos and cabins could use a little cleaning. (Do we have cabins on CoastRentals? Guess that’s more of a Lake thing).
The best course of action is to make a simple checklist that lists everything out 1-by-1 that needs to be cleaned and/or checked for maintenance. While it’s obvious that floors need to be swept and scrubbed, and the bathroom probably needs some attention, property owners should also make time to check smoke detectors and to clean out furnace ducts. Do you have a fireplace? Spring is a great time to get all the ashes out of that sucker.
And what about your exterior? Limbs of […]

Pricing Hawaii cruises

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

If you’re searching the net for the best price for a Hawaii Cruise then chances are you have run into lots of different pricing. In general, most of the sites you see on the Internet are not pulling from live inventory from the cruise line and only give the lead in price. The lead in price is the price before port, taxes and fees. These fees must be added to the price to get the actual cost of the cruise. Many customers call me think they can actually get these prices online but when consumers investigate further they find that the prices are a lot higher than they thought and come back to me for help. When it comes to cruises for Hawaii the best way to save money is to contact a company like us with access to live inventory and also can guarantee […]

Key West, FL - A Real Look

Monday, March 19th, 2007

So myself and a few of the other people that help make CoastRentals possible made our annual pilgrimmage to Key West, Florida this past weekend. While this is always one of our most favorite trips of the year (especially considering it encompasses the first weekend of March Madness AND St. Patrick’s Day AND Spring Break), it also provided me with an opportunity to get real, first-person accounts of a feature vacation location here on the website.
‘Florida beach vacation’, which is a big part of what we do here on our website and a key term for our property listers to focus on, can mean a whole lot of different things. Heading down for a weekend of go karting and crab cakes in Panama City definitely is different than clubbing down in South Beach Miami or exploring the Everglades. I bring this up only because I feel like […]
