We all know what its like. You see the brochure and find a hotel that claims that it is only a stones throw away from the beach. The only thing is, when you get there you find that you would need a very large muscular arm to throw a stone that far.

This is why you should try out Google Earth. Before you book your hotel it may be a good idea to look for the area the hotel resides at to see exactly how the hotelier’s claims hold up. You may find that you are not as close to that lovely beach as you were initially told.

Your hotelier may have even told you that their hotel sits in a wonderfully secluded location, and in actual fact it might be right up against ten other hotels or a built up area. They can use ingenious photography to make their hotel look as if it is the only building for miles. If you are looking for a hotel, try: http://www.roomsandbeds.com and give Google Earth a go. I’m sure that once you have used this method you will never go back to just believing what your hotelier has told you.

A spattering of businesses have used a custom made copy of Google Earth to promote their own holiday promotions and I am sure that many other travel related businesses will follow suit in the future when they see how popular this feature has become.

Check out Google Earth for yourself, you may be surprised to find that the hotel you have booked is not as near to the beach, or as secluded as you thought.
