If you’re an America’s Cup competitor, involved in the planning any of the events or simply a spectator, consider staying in short-term corporate rental during your stay in San Francisco.  Avoid the packed touristy hotels and instead cherish the laid-back lifestyle and creature comforts of home that a fully-furnished apartment or house has to offer. Plus, you can live like the locals (not the tourists) live.

San Francisco housing is available through CorporateHousingbyOwner.com and individuals can either search for corporate housing in San Francisco of submit a CHBO Housing Request to find a short-term, furnished rental property.

America’s Cup events run August 21-26 and October 4-7, 2012 (this is the America’s Cup World Series event that takes place during San Francisco’s annual Fleet Week).
