As vaccines are rolled out and cities open up, you’re probably starting to think about where to take your first post-pandemic vacation. Whether you’re trying to get as far from home as possible or you want to stay close and ease into it, an inevitable task is finding a place to stay.

In 2021, the traveler has more options than ever when it comes to finding a place. You could stay in a hotel room, a cottage, a treehouse, a beach bungalow, a yurt or even rent an RV — if you name it you can find it. Where does one even begin to look? There are dozens of sites offering up thousands of rental options, but finding the best vacation rental sites to can be quite the undertaking.

Some of the sites we scoured have everything you could ask for, while many hone in on one type of vacation. Regardless of what type of experience a site offers, each brings something unique to the table.

The Best for a Specific Dwelling: Vrbo

Cottages in the country, cabins in the woods, apartments in the city, beach houses on the shores — whatever type of dwelling you’re looking for, Vrbo has it. Not only does Vrbo have it, but the site has divided up its home page with options for each type of stay, ensuring that you’ll only get what you want to see and nothing else when you’re searching.

The Best for Vacation Inspo: Airbnb

If you’re not sure where you want to go but know you’re ready for a trip, just drop by the Airbnb homepage and you’ll see a collection of drool-worthy dwellings nestled in some epic vistas. Even if you think you have an idea of where you’re headed, Airbnb invariably inspires a second thought. Spend some time scrolling through the various spaces and adventures Airbnb offers and you’ll have a healthy list of options.

The Best for a Quiet Weekend: Getaway

Getaway is here to ensure city dwellers get the most out of their days off by providing its own quiet, remote dwellings just outside some of the biggest metropolitan areas in the US. The spaces are small and have relatively few amenities compared to other properties, but that is the point. Getaway puts an emphasis on unplugging and reconnecting with yourself and the outdoors, making for the perfect weekend recharge and reset.

The Best for an Urban Experience: Sonder

If you want a staycation or are interested in exploring a new city, Sonder is the place to find the ideal rental. The site emphasizes the neighborhood experience, with spaces intentionally dotted throughout some of the biggest and most exciting cities in the world. Featured on the site are stays in New York, London, New Orleans and more, but there are over 30 cities in total.

The Best for Family Space: Marriot Homes & Villas

For big families, sometimes staying in a hotel or apartment will drive everyone up the wall — never a welcome situation when on vacation. This is where Marriott Homes & Villas comes in. Marriott has used its extensive reach and resources to put together a network of entire homes for rent in some of the finest cities and towns in the world, including New York, Florence and Lake Tahoe.

The Best for a Beach Vacation: TripAdvisor

Ok, so we know that you can do just about anything on TripAdvisor, from getting the skinny on the next city you’re visiting or where to eat on any given night. But we think TripAdvisor is one of the top sites to book a beach vacation owing to its more than 20,000 rentals in California, Hawaii and Florida alone.

The Best for an Outdoor Experience: Outdoorsy

Should you be looking for something a bit more mobile, Outdoorsy is your place. The RV rental specialist is ready to take you on your next great camping trip.
