What Are Vacation Rentals?

Destination Resorts Hawaii Vacation Rentals are luxurious condominiums, penthouses, and villas that are available for rent - much like you would book a hotel room.

But unlike a typical hotel room, a vacation rental is much more - it's a home. A home that's perfect for vacations, family reunions, corporate retreats, wedding parties and many other occasions.

The Space You Need

Instead of a room, a vacation rental gives you a spacious home environment where entire families and groups can gather and be together under one roof. With its fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer and barbecues your vacation rental is perfect when you're planning to stay more than one or two days.

The Privacy You Want

One of the biggest benefits of renting a Destination Resorts Hawaii vacation rental is the freedom it gives you to relax in comfort, quiet and privacy.

Is renting from Destination Resorts Hawaii the same as renting direct from a homeowner?

When you call an individual homeowner, they may only offer one home to you. The owner has a vested interest in renting his home but he very likely will not be readily available if you have any issues. A Destination Resorts Hawaii reservations specialist is a professional trained to listen to your needs, to fit you into a vacation rental that suits your unique requirements. Each property we manage has an operational team and maintenance on site, a front desk open daily from 8am to 9pm, and an after office hours manager on duty. Most vacationers have confidence renting from Destination Resorts Hawaii because of the reputation they have established under the same managing director for the past 20 years. Individual homeowners may live very far away, and are unable to provide the level of service we are able to easily maintain. Destination Resorts Hawaii is also available to arrange rental cars, grocery delivery, and concierge services prior to arrival.

Are vacation rentals the same as a time-share?

No they are not. Vacation rentals are privately owned, fully furnished homes or condos. When renting a vacation home from a Destination Resorts Hawaii, you are provided many options and a much greater variety of accommodation types and sizes. Timeshares are fully furnished accommodations that have been sold up to 50 times, each purchaser buying a certain amount of time. Timeshare rentals are also more restrictive with dates, for example, stays may be allowed only from Saturday to Saturday. Destination Resorts Hawaii does not sell, manage or represent any timeshare or fractional vacation rentals.
