We have two pieces of good news along the Gulf Coast today. First, the leaky well is being plugged successfully with BP's "Static Kill" effort and second, ther US Government released a report saying that most of the oil is already gone -- it's been cleaned up or decomposed. Read the full article from Yahoo! here.
The implication of course is that it's now safe to come visit the Gulf Coast. Of course, many of y'all already knew that and didn't really need the government to tell you!
Please consider visiting this wonderful part of the country. If you do come, enjoy the amenities of home and more space than a hotel by renting a condo. Visit http://www.abetterstay.com to view the Web's largest selection of professionally managed Condos along the Gulf Coast.
Have a great day.

Given the uncertainty caused by the oil spill, many vacation rental management companies have changed their cancel policies. Traditionally, cancel fees can be steep and usually require forfeiture of the entire booking amount if the reservation is canceled at the last minute. However, vacation rental managers understand the anxiety guests may feel given the situation, so they are willing to offer no or minimal fee cancel policies in order to give guests comfort. Below is a sample of cancel policies from a few top suppliers in the area:
Many other resorts and rental companies are offering similar policies. You can view the detailed policies on the checkout pages of this and many other booking websites. You can also call our central reservations line at 1-888-828-6745 to inquire.
