LAST-MINUTE FLORIDA DISCOUNTS FOR A THANKSGIVING GETAWAY

 

Miami, FL, November 4, 2008—It's still possible to flee the onset of winter and spend Thanksgiving in the Sunshine State. And travelers who book a vacation rental with Rentalo.com can even cook a turkey in their own well-equipped kitchen. In fact, cooking some of your own meals is one of the great advantages of renting a house or villa through Rentalo. Some of the other advantages: more space, more privacy and much lower prices than a hotel room.

To find the great Florida discounts for a long Thanksgiving weekend, go to www.Rentalo.com and click the "Special Offers" box on the right. There are dozens of discounts all over the Sunshine State, including the following:
