ZONDER LAUNCHES GUIDES TO MORE THAN 40 TOP VACATION RENTAL DESTINATIONS

Vacation Planning Made Easier With Inspirational, Original Destination Content

(SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, July 9, 2008) — Zonder, a leader in online vacation rentals, announces comprehensive destination guides highlighting more than 40 of the top leisure travel destinations in North and Central America and the Caribbean. The new guides contain more than 500 original articles to help travelers become familiar with a destination before booking accommodations. Travelers can find and explore new destinations, read related articles and find vacation rentals in the area with these new enhancements to Zonder.com.

Zonder’s destination guides are integrated into the Zonder.com website and can be accessed from the homepage or by going directly to http://destinations.zonder.com. Users can view featured properties in each destination and search for vacation rentals directly from every article.

Still trying to decide on a destination? Zonder’s new destination guides were created as helpful planning tools so visitors can easily search over 500 articles for information related to keywords such as "Hawaii surfing", " Hilton Head golf courses", "beach vacations" and hundreds more. Content for the articles was contributed by real people with specific expertise in each destination and then vetted by the expert editorial staff at Zonder.com.

"We know today’s travelers are doing destination-specific research when searching for the perfect accommodations," said Bob Barnes, CEO of Zonder. "Our destination guides give travelers an insider’s perspective on what to see when exploring different destinations - that’s a tremendous help when planning a vacation." Other web sites and travel guides provide a more sterile approach to content. Zonder’s Guides and articles are written with personality and cover many non-traditional topics of great interest to travelers. These include "Don't Cry, Little Ski Bunny, Spring in Keystone is Great, Too!", "On a Puerto Rico Vacation, Sixty is the New Twenty", "9 Ways to Find Trouble in Paradise" and 10 Things to Do in Maui That Won't Bore Teens to Tears".
