"We are really greatful that we came across this web site. We were looking in many different hotels to accomidate our family (total of 3 families) so that we could stay together. It was our first time taking a vacation trip together. My husbands family have never been to Las Vegas, Nevada so we decided to go there. The house was wonderful! 5 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms-JUST PERFECT for 14 of us! It is in a great location. Not too far from the strip and not too far from the local stores and such. Clarence and Ursula were great with us. They have outstanding services and we are definitely going to be using them again. We had to cut our stay by a day due to an emergency, but Clarence and Ursula were so very understanding and really helped out at a tight moment. I will continue to use rentalo.com for future vacations with my family. Thanks rentalo.com for your excellent recommendations, the execellent choices of vacation homes to choose from, and the great people that we met! "Donna J. Perry-Flores
"THis was my 1st time using your service. We received several inquiry responces and have chosen one of these for our trip to your area. We didnt want to stay at one of those run of the mill marriotts or Best Westerns but instead were looking for a nice quiet resort/ cottage which Cedar Cove Resort & Cottages looks to fill the bill. I will let you know how the stay goes when we return. Id like to thank you for your service. I couldnt have planned this trip without you."Richard F. Holden Jr.
"I want to take a minute and thank you for such a user-friendly web page. I have been working toward editing my page (getting pictures, learning how to upload, etc. today) and I did it! I am so happy about it and want you to know that even a computer neophyte that I am could edit and add pictures to their property. Thanks designers @ Rentalo!! "Nancy

Red beaches, numerous archaeological sites and wonderful sunsets characterize Santorini providing travelers with unlimited attractions and things to do. Akrotiri, Oia and Fira are some of the places worth visiting. Read on to find out about exciting things to do on Santorini.Santorini Beaches
Red and black beaches stretch along Santorini's rugged coast creating perfect settings for all kinds of water sports. Most of the beaches are stony and waves can be high so it's not the best place for children. Kamari and Perissa are popular beaches on the island with black sand. Those who prefer calmer beaches should visit Monolithos, Vlichada or Agios Georgios.Akrotiri
Akrotiri is one of the most important archaeological sites on Santorini and the Eastern Mediterranean. Nicknamed "the Minoan Pompeii", Akrotiri was damaged by the island's volcano around 1450 BC. Part of the town has been excavated although it is said that it is only 1/30th of the whole site. Tourists can admire beautiful frescos, collection of jars and ancient buildings.Oia
Located on the highest point of Santorini just above Fira is Oia, a picturesque town with whitewashed houses built into the volcanic rocks. Tourists come to Oia mostly to admire its beautiful sunsets which are reputed to be among the world's most beautiful.The Museum of Prehistoric Thera
History and archaeology lovers will be thrilled with the number of fascinating museums on Santorini. Situated in the island's capital, Fira, the Museum of Prehistoric Thera offers art masterpieces of the prehistoric Aegean including famous wall-paintings. The Archaeological Museum, the Folklore Museum and the Megaron Gyzi are other museums worth visiting.The Volcano
Two small islands in the center of Santorini caldera, Palea and Nea Kameni, create what locals call "the volcano". Those two islands are the youngest volcanic islands of the eastern Mediterranean and represent the recent activity of the Santorini's volcano. Tourists can admire them from the Santorini caldera.Rentalo certified & recommended by:
