Sometimes, a quick weekend getaway just doesn't cut it. What you need is to really get away from it all to truly recharge your batteries and come back feeling refreshed and well-rested.

What to consider when you rent a house for a week

When you rent a house for a week, you want to be sure that it has all the amenities that you need to feel like you've set foot in your home away from home. If you're a cooking enthusiast, that could mean choosing a weekly holiday rental featuring a kitchen with all the bells and whistles that you might need to cook up the family feasts of your dreams. If you love to swim, that might mean choosing a villa with a garden with direct access to the beach in Spain or a condo with a pool in Dubai. You just want to feel at home. Vrbo's powerful filters are designed to help you sort through thousands of homes across dozens of wonderful destinations and find the short-stay rentals of your dreams.

Easily find weekly beach rentals

For many people, spending an entire week by the beach in 2025 is a dream come true. Finding weekly beach rentals on Vrbo is a breeze. Simply select your preferred travel dates and destination to access a range of homes in sun-soaked towns including Ibiza in the Balearic islands and Lagos in the Algarve. It's worth comparing travel dates as popular destinations are often much cheaper outside of the busy tourist season. Being flexible with your travel dates can help you save money and means that you can make the most of your extended beach holiday without the typical crowds of tourists.

Popular destinations for short-stay rentals

When you choose short-stay rentals, you typically either want to get away from it all in nature with just the songs of the birds for company or want to partake in the lively atmosphere and bounty of opportunities of big city life. Two popular destinations for weekly holiday rentals are Rome and London. Rome is all about history, food, and fun. Make the most of the historical heritage of the city with hundreds of monuments and taste iconic local specialties that include pasta cacio e pepe and carbonara. London, the most populated city in the UK is a hotbed of culture and entertainment. Catch a West End musical and visit world-famous landmarks like Piccadilly Circus or Hyde Park. Explore the city's famed music scene and finish every night out with a legendary Brick Ln. beigel.

Leaving your options open with week-to-week holiday rentals

With week-to-week holiday rentals, the holiday never stops. If you love your new home so much that you can't see yourself leaving after just a week, you can easily extend your stay on the Vrbo app. Week-to-week holiday rentals allow you to continue your booking. Make sure to extend your booking as early as possible so that you can continue staying in your current home. If the home you are currently staying in isn't available, it's usually very easy to find dozens of other great options in the same town or area.
