Why should you choose to stay in an Airbnb in Vilamoura
Accommodation is always a huge consideration when traveling and in recent times this often comes to the Airbnb vs hotel debate.
This is no different in Vilamoura with a variety of Airbnb options available.
There are a number of aspects to consider when looking at potential Airbnbs.
More privacy
Staying in an Airbnb often provides more privacy than a traditional hotel as Airbnb accommodation is usually separate.
This also allows for more freedom as there aren’t as many strict rules regarding house-cleaning and the like.
Rather, there are usually simple common courtesy guidelines.
This freedom also extends to having a full kitchen and separate rooms, making Airbnb a great choice for longer stays.
More unique and authentic experience
While hotels are fairly similar in most parts of the world, Airbnb can differ hugely by location.
This can provide a more unique and authentic experience of staying in a new place.
This can also allow for meeting local residents and learning local customs and recommendations.
This integration is helpful in bridging the gap between being a tourist and understanding the area, people, and culture better.
Often better value than a hotel especially when you are traveling as a family
When it comes to price, Airbnb can often work out as better value than a hotel, especially considering all the benefits that come with it.
If you are traveling as a family or in a group, it can also be significantly cheaper than a hotel.
