Travel site TripAdvisor has named Kihei and Lahaina, Maui, to its Top Vacation Rental Hot Spot list for 2011. This list is based on search data and input from site editors. Travelers can save big on vacation rentals over other types of accommodation.
Kihei and Lahaina were both in the top 10, along with Kissimmee and Destin, FL, Big Bear Lake and Palm Springs, CA, Gatlinburg, TN, Outer Banks, NC, Hilton Head, SC, and Cape Cod, Mass. In compiling the list, site editors look at the number of vacation rentals listed in each location as well as the potential savings a family could realize on a weeklong trip. Despite President Obama's preference for vacation rentals in Kailua, Oahu, it did not make the top 10 in TripAdvisor's list as it only has 94 vacation rentals.
