As a business traveler, I know first-hand how tempting it is to use the trip as an excuse to fall off my diet.  It is so easy to use the delicious Texas brisket, succulent seafood platters, or quick burgers as substitute to a nutritionally balanced meal. Often we blame the trip because our hotel choice didn’t have a kitchen or sufficient kitchen substitute. It is imperative to take control and eat what is best for you when traveling.  A great way to do this is to pick a housing option that includes a full kitchen so you can be control of your caloric intake!  Vacation rental homes give you this option!

Staying at a vacation rental homes gives you access to a fully furnished kitchen for your nutritional needs.  Upon checking in, you can go grocery shopping and get the healthier foods you need for your stay. This allows you to prepare meals that are better for you instead of eating out every night.  Using this option also gives you control over your food intake when you travel so you can stay on track with your diet instead of having to start all over the next week.

The ability to prepare your meals when you travel allows you to focus your energy on your work projects.   Not having to worry about fatty meals and weight gain can be a added benefit!  The more you travel, the more you realize the comforts of home help you acclimate to your new city.

Business travelers are often encouraged to look for the best deal when traveling out of town.  Long business trips in different cities can often lead to high business expenditures because of the housing, travel, and food expenses of the business person.   The business traveler pays for a hotel that offers them a room with limited space for their stay.  Because of this norm, business travelers have been acclimated to the confined hotel room space, lack of hotel staff support, sporadic internet access and office services, and limited room amenities.

An alternative to this typical hotel stay is vacation rental homes.  Most people view these homes as solution for the vacationer but it can also be a solution for long term or short term business travel.  The business traveler could spend their allotted hotel funds on a space that offered more to their bottom line instead of doing what they have always done.  Spending more doesn’t always mean getting more quality wise when it comes to our local hotel chains.

Larger Space For the Same Price

For the same price as most hotel chains, vacation rental homes can give the business traveler a house, villa, apartment or townhouse instead of a 12 x 20 hotel room.  This space alone would provide comfort as the traveler gets adjusted to working in a new city.  This space would allow the business person the opportunity to relax in a comfortable private surrounding as they prepared for the upcoming business project in the upcoming week.

This larger space could include many special amenities that the typical business traveler would not get in their typical hotel stay.  Imagine having your own private pool or hot tube for the price of your room.  This would be a great way to wind down after a long day at work!

Combine Vacation and Business Needs in One House

For the same price of most hotel rooms, vacation rental homes allow the business person to combine their business and vacation needs in one trip.  One study suggests that more business travelers try to take mini vacations when they travel out of state for business.   For example, if you had a business trip in Orlando, you could rent an Orlando vacation rental home for your business travel during the week and enjoy this same house for your vacation during the weekend.  Again, the prices of these homes are comparable to the price of the hotel and they include enough space for your family if needed.
