VacationHouse Destinations Wins Excellence Award in Hotel and Lodging
Seattle, WA, May 23, 2008 --(PR.com)-- VacationHouse Destinations, the first truly affordable destination club, today announced it was honored by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, with a 2008 Excellence Award in the Interactive Hotel and Lodging Category. With over 9,000 entries from across the US and around the world, the Communicator Awards is the largest and most competitive awards program honoring the creative excellence for communications professionals.
“We’re thrilled to have been selected for this award,” said Tony Bacso, co-founder of VacationHouse Destinations. “This award is a testament to the hard work of our team to create a high quality user experience that keeps people coming back to our company.”
“The incredible quality and diversity of this year’s entries was an inspiration to the academy and all of our judges.
