Booking vacation accommodations is harder than ever in 2020 when you consider all of the factors that you have to take into consideration. Keeping yourself safe and healthy while not overspending is imperative while planning a trip during the COVID-19 crisis.

Shared vs. Private

If at all possible, you should try to avoid accommodations that are shared with other people at this point during the pandemic. Whether it’s a hostel or an Airbnb which is shared with other people, the best option for your health is to search for accomodations where you will be alone in your room or space.

Cancellation Policy

While the general situation for travel and leisure activities has become better over the past few months, you never know what might happen in the future. With that in mind, a good idea is to find accommodations with a flexible cancellation policy in order to keep your money safe.

Cleanliness Ratings

It was never a good thing to walk into a hotel room or rental house and find a non-tidy space, and that’s even more of the case during the COVID-19 pandemic. Be sure to look at cleanliness ratings for your potential booking to ensure that they do a good job cleaning and sanitizing the space between guests.
