Because I work at Lonely Planet and so many inspirational trips and experiences cross my desk every day, I decided to use my what-does-everyone-need skills with my vast destination knowledge to come up with the best trips for all those complicated groups we want to travel with.

This Travel Trend Changed How I Vacation With My Family

On the night before Thanksgiving, my family and I pulled up to Villa des Trois Clochers, a five-bedroom estate in Champagne, France. We arrived from a medieval town in Burgundy, where we’d sojourned in a $150-a-night Airbnb—charming, certainly, but a far cry from the three-story stone mansion with light-blue shutters and bright-white Juliette balconies awaiting us in Villers-Allerand. Our palatial digs, built in 1924 and surrounded by vineyards, were halfway between Épernay and Reims, and a 15-minute drive from the Royal Champagne Hotel.

Move Over, Airbnb: Big Hotels Target Group Travel

Companies like Airbnb popularized vacation rentals, but these days it's the big hotel chains that are marketing them. Big hotel brands are adding vacation rental properties to their portfolios, creating new options for large groups, families and extended-stay travelers. For years, home-sharing platforms like Airbnb and Vrbo have been go-to sources for large group travel accommodations. These platforms make it easier to find multi-bedroom rentals. Often, these were more comfortable and cost-effective than spreading across multiple hotel rooms. But in recent years, peer-to-peer home rental sites have drawn scrutiny for high fees and unreliable hosts.
