WIMCO VILLAS FEATURED ON THE TODAY SHOW
TRAVEL & LEISURE FEATURES EDITOR RECOMMENDS WIMCO AS TOP LUXURY VILLA RENTAL COMPANY

Newport, RI - March 2012 - Looking for a vacation rental company that does it all for you? Hoping to find a vacation rentals service where you won't have to do all of the heavy lifting to research destinations, sift through hundreds of vacation rental options, evaluate properties that aren't available for your dates, and negotiate pricing? Then Travel & Leisure features editor Nilou Motamed says that Wimco Villas is your answer.

In a segment on The Today Show on March 2, Motamed laid out her top picks for each category of vacation rental companies, from low-cost "rent a couch" options, to low-service owner direct sites, to full-service vacation rental companies. Motamed recommended that people looking for a full-service travel company that represents luxury vacation rentals in the Caribbean and Europe should call Wimco.

As an example, in the feature on The Today Show, Motamed highlighted Wimco's villa TNC REE on Grace Bay beach on the island of Providentiales in the Turks & Caicos. This 3 bedroom villa is ideal for families looking for a Spring Break vacation rental because of the:

• Number of direct flights from the US into Provo
• Villa's location directly on the beach
• Family friendly amenities (pool table, tennis court), spacious shared areas and private pool
• Proximity to restaurants and services
• Value on a per bedroom per night basis vs. local hotel options.
