Best Private Villa Destinations in North America

We’re beginning to see a light at the end of the pandemic tunnel, with signs of America’s tourism industry opening back up. We at Andiamo are encouraging our valued clients to spend the summer traveling domestically. We’ve noticed a sudden surge in inquiries from people looking to rent private vacation homes. These rentals are a safe alternative to a hotel, and offer precautionary measures that include check in and check out without interfacing with staff, and no shared amenities such as elevators or common areas. Vacation rentals are often in remote areas with less direct exposure to other travelers. We want you to continue to experience all that our beautiful country has to offer, with its mountains, beaches and desert landscapes, so we’ve rounded up a list of the Best Private Villa Destinations in North America.
