September 07, 2006 |

A new study revealed that the top things that people without children are looking for when planning a vacation are a destination that offers great value, a destination that is easy to explore and a destination that offers a wide variety of accommodations.

The Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau, Inc. recently commissioned Harris Interactive to perform a travel-related Futures Study identifying what attributes travelers seek when picking a vacation destination as well as what benefits they hope to receive from their vacation.

The study revealed that the top things that people without children are looking for when planning a vacation are a destination that offers great value, a destination that is easy to explore and a destination that offers a wide variety of accommodations to meet the needs of various travel parties.

The study also confirmed the top benefits travelers want to take home with them after their vacation are that they want to feel happy when they return home, they want to feel less stress in their lives while feeling relaxed and rejuvenated and they want to feel personally satisfied that it was a vacation well spent.
