TripAdvisor picks the top ten most expensive vacation rentals in North America

You think finding a sub-$200 hotel in the summer is a challenge? Consider the challenges for the rich and famous – do you go with a 12 bedroom mansion, or can you settle for a mere 10? Will the kitchen be large enough to feed all 250 guests at your poolside soirée?

And then there is the pool itself – is one pool going to be enough, and will the fitness room be large enough? Yes – the world of luxury vacation rentals provides a level of luxury not found at many hotels, which is why their rates are as high as $150,000 for a single week.
