Web Sighting: It's a Down Under g'day on Stayz.com

If the vacation rental sites you use fall short on options when it comes to Australia, check out Stayz.com.

The site lists more than 23,000 holiday rentals in Oz. You can even track your favorites as you browse through a luxury villa on Whitsunday or an urban tree house in the Margaret River area. If you're not familiar with different regions, use the "Accommodation by Holiday Type" box in the right sidebar. You can look for locations suited for beach outings, skiing, surfing or other travel experiences.

But - and here's a big but - prices are in Australian dollars. As with many rental sites, you must complete a form to request a booking. Availability calendars are shown, and deposits are required. Searches for specific types of properties don't always give accurate results.
