CAPE COD VACATIONS
TOP WAYS TO SAVE MONEY ON CAPE COD
RENT A CAPE COD RENTAL HOUSE INSTEAD OF A HOTEL ROOM.
Rental home prices run slightly higher than hotel rooms, but over a
week’s stay you’ll save big on meal expenses. A family of four can
easily save $25 or more by eating breakfast at the condo and even
more at lunch.
BRING ALONG ANOTHER FAMILY TO SPLIT THE RENTAL COST.
Three and four bedroom homes can be rented for approximately the
same cost as a nice one-bedroom condo. Bring along friends or
another family to split the accommodation cost.
VISIT CAPE COD BEFORE MEMORIAL WEEKEND OR AFTER THE
FIRST WEEK IN AUGUST. May and September are the best times to
visit. During these months the weather is perfect and crowds are
nonexistent.
CONSIDER RENTING BY OWNER. Many Cape Cod vacation home
owners rent "by owner", meaning you’ll save an average of 25%. This
is the normal percentage charged by rental management companies
to “rent” individual condos. Plus, many management companies are
now tacking on additional cleaning fees, extra deposits, etc. The
downside to renting by owner is that most do not accept credit cards
and may not be able to respond quickly to maintenance issues. There
are several reputable websites listing condos for rent by owner,
including www.vrbo.com and www.greatrentals.com.
DINE OUT BETWEEN 5 P.M. AND 6 P.M.- Many Cape Cod restaurants
offer two-for-one specials between this time period. Check the local
paper and the free newspapers for special offers and coupons.
CHECK OUT PRICELINE IF YOU NEED A SHORT-TERM HOTEL
ROOM- Several hotels are listed on Priceline, but be very careful when
bidding or you might end up in an undesirable area. Check out
informational websites like www.betterbidding.com for information on
how to bid.
FILL UP WITH GAS BEFORE YOU GET TO -Tourist destinations
historically have some of the highest gas prices in the nation. Fill up
before you get there.
EAT OUT FOR LUNCH INSTEAD OF DINNER. Most Cape Cod
restaurants offer lunch specials at half the price of their dinners. Also
be aware the wait to get into restaurants at night during the busy
season can be quite long.
