ALL STAR Vacation Homes was recently featured on a KDKA CBS Pittsburgh travel segment entitled “A Disney World Vacation For Less” that aired on Thursday, November 13th.
ALL STAR’s Disney area vacation home rentals were highlighted as a great way to save money by accommodating more guests and giving travelers the option to save by cooking their own meals.
“A three bedroom condo will sleep up to eight guests and ranging in price from $139 a night to just over $200 a night for up to eight people, when you break that down, it really is quite a tremendous cost savings”, said Sara Moore, VP of Marketing for ALL STAR Vacation Homes in an on-camera interview.
