With families in such a rush every day, rarely do they have free time to share with one another. A vacation provides time and freedom to each family member, eliminating stress and easing the tension of every day life.

Studies show that regularly scheduled vacations for a family can actually strengthen the relationship between husband, wife and children. Families who make vacations a priority have lower divorce rates, are more successful in business and have a better outlook on life.

It's also proven that some of the most creative ideas and plans are born while on vacation because the person's mind is free from the cares of life and able to maximize creativity.

Lack of finances is almost always the reason families do not take vacations as often as they should, and some never enjoy a luxury vacation in their lifetime. Another reason may be that either one or more of the family members is unable to get time off from work, or when they're able to take a week off, it's for reasons other than a vacation. Even when it requires much sacrifice throughout the year, the long-term benefits of a vacation to the family are well worth it.

The purpose of a vacation is to refresh and revive each family member and bring them closer together, which should be a number one priority in every family. Planning ahead for vacations, even luxury vacations, also gives each member of the family something to look forward to, and it's very exciting to prepare for the vacation when the time comes.

The need for this special "free" time among families prompted a unique service offered by Affordable Dream Vacations, a company located in Houston, TX, and founded by Tony and Kay Rembowski in 2004.

The service assists families by providing very affordable access to a network of 5,000 properties without ownership (not a timeshare). The benefit of this program is that a family can enjoy actual timeshare properties without "owning" the timeshare. The quality and features remain the same, but with more flexibility and much lower costs.

Any family can now take advantage of luxury vacations, even when on a tight budget. While at their "home away from home", the family can enjoy many activities and luxuries including oversized swimming pools, beautiful beaches, golf courses, tennis courts, snow skiing, scuba diving, deep sea fishing, jet skiing, hiking, sky diving, sailing, fabulous spa packages, dining at the finest restaurants, and more.

Now any family can enjoy all the luxuries of a dream vacation with the benefit of wholesale prices.
