When vacation time rolls around, some people choose to stay home, putter around the house, and get caught up on repairs or cleaning. While this might be a cheap option, it is not the most ideal.
Psychologists and thinkers like twentieth century Russian literary critic Victor Schlovsky emphasize the importance of what they call defamiliarization. This means that to make you better appreciate life and your surroundings, you need to step back and look at it from a different perspective. You must defamiliarize yourself from you present situation.
One of the best ways to do this is a vacation to a far away and exotic place. Take yourself out of your everyday surroundings. While many of us want to do this, cost is often a deciding factor. It is important, however, not to let cost dictate your vacation plans. There are ways to reduce the costs of travel so that you can experience the tremendous benefits of defamiliarization.
Start by visiting one of the high quality discount travel websites on the Internet. These sites can help find discounts on condos, hotels, and plane tickets. Next to airline fees, the cost of a condo on the beach or a nice hotel room is the biggest expense of a vacation. Finding a condo at a discounted rate will go a long way to enabling you to realize your vacation dreams. When you stay in a condo, you can relax in a home-like environment. You can often prepare your own meals and have room to spread out and really relax.
Coastal Vacations Club offers it members use of many different condo rental options that cost on average, about $200-$300 per week for 1 or 2 bedroom condos.
There are no timeshare presentations, no timeshare tours or any secret sales gimmicks here with Coastal, just use the condo, like you are an owner, and one never has to pay those high yearly maintenence fees that come with timeshare and vacation ownership.
