Hi all you lovely Forum peeps

I'm looking to rent a nice house on a tropical island for around three weeks. It would be in the way of a holiday/honeymoon. Now don't laugh!! (yes, sigh, too late... i can hear you...lmao)

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! I look all around me and see low to high rents for this and that... but there's nothing like a recommendation from a satisfied customer. Stop that laughing again!! I can't help it if I'm an old romantic.

Go to Liome. If you can't find it on the map, check out Raymond Figtree's profile. The entire sim is a wonderful place. Nicely placed homes, great people, lots of things to do.

Welcome to the forums Matisse. I'm no expert on rentals, but I think Raymond Figtree, a forum regular, has beach rentals on a sim called Liome (I feel a song coming on).

EDIT: Oh, and it's probably best NOT to tell him Chas referred you.

Thanks for the recommends, Chas and Jessyanne! Yes, please consider my mainland tropical sim of Liome. Go here and click on the notecard giver for available rentals and landmarks. :)

Try Germania Atoll. There was still a couple nice homes for rent there, beautiful setting with canoe rides, tour boat, underwater area, pretty port. It would be perfect for a honeymoon.

I must give another vote to Liome Beach Resort. I haven't seen a mainland sim quite so beautiful, it's quite apparent that Raymond has poured his blood and soul into the sim. It's stunning. :)

Still have enough soul left to thank you for that, Darien. Your estate sims are just as lovely. :)

did you try checking through the real estate forums?
property sales and rentals

and posting in the products wanted section (I guess it would be considered a product of some type)

might have some luck there, as most ppl in the forums try to keep things in the proper places

Contact Fluff Starbrook, she's just finished a new island with 4 beach front houses for rent. She'd be happy to show you around the place before you make any decisions, lots of nice little hiddens romantic bits too. :)

Oh and the eagle sculpture in the middle of the island is a must see!

That's a little unfair, Tiz, unless you're going to explain why you don't like it. Then the OP can decide whether or not to take your view into account, depending on her own preferences.
