How to book a villa safely with maximum benefits

Article Category: Travel

Author Name: Alan Kumar P.

First you pick your destination, then you do your research, then you find an agent to book from, after you find a place to stay with your requirements and specifications, then you arrive at the destination, enjoy at the villa and have a concierge on stand by on complimentary basis should you need anything. That's how a villa vacation should go. Or are you the self booker who should know by know the ups and downs of booking villas in different destinations worldwide via the different booking channels available? Anyhow, we will explain in this article how to book a villa safely with maximum benefits for you.

An independent but privately managed villa is more personal, private, spacious, has better views and boast all the comforts of a luxury five star hotel in almost every way possible. This is true if you book with an agency rather than self booking sites, because an agency normally offer complimentary services like villa suggestion, airport transfers, concierge, and other good surprising services, while self booking would lead you to rely on yourself or rather just the villa owner to help you during your vacation, keeping a note that booking a villa is not the same as booking a hotel or resort. There are 2 main ways of booking or renting a villa:

1) Owner Direct. Major vacation rental marketplaces are where you can find tons of villas to choose from at the same price you would also get through an agency. There is a misconception that marketplaces are cheaper than agencies. On the other hand, a marketplace offers more variety of property which are a mix of both managed and unmanaged villas, which creates avenues for risks to take place. Variety and independence are the keys to booking direct with owner.

2) Villa Specialist Agency. More villa focused, well managed properties and tons of complimentary services is what you get when booking or renting a villa from agents. However, you must be informed that the properties featured in specialist agents are normally managed thus lesser in choices but should come with a price guarantee. You will interact with the agents who will advice you on villas for free. Service and accuracy are the keys when booking or renting with a specialist agency.

Choosing the right villa is something you will have to define according to your preference and budget, there are also hotels or resorts featuring villas which are not the same as an independent villa and are much higher in price. Here is a list of things to consider while ensuring your benefits are maximized:

1) Book early. You will have many opportunities to get special discounts or packages – especially for waterfront properties. The villas are normally focused on getting more bookings, and have many promotions including free night stay with a minimum of payed days, packages and many more. Most regularly vacationers book up to a year in advance to safe guard options and value at the same time.

2) Consider off peak trips. Book when the Low Season is in effect. The most popular vacation months are typically July to September and December to mid-January, so naturally booking a villa or any hotels during these months will be most expensive, since villas do have an additional surcharge for peak seasons and a minimum stay period. There are no surcharges and minimum stay is cut by upto 50% to get more bookings during the off peak periods.

3) Ask Questions. You want to make sure that all the facilities and amenities you want to be available to you. And the only way you'll know is if you ask questions. More is better in this case, and agents or owners will be happy to provide you with the information and photos when ever possible.

4) Explore your options before booking. As the process goes there are many options and opportunities on the way read make sure you do a comparison shopping. Be sure to keep your options open – considering many different villas gives you a variety of location, places to choose from, as well as that of different prices and available amenities.

Select your destination: Explore the destinations available for you to enjoy vacation villas to the maximum.
Book through an agent or marketplace: The process of booking or renting a villa is not the same as booking a hotel or resort, its meant to be more special.
Payment methods: Make sure you have everything in written from where you booked the villa before paying anything, since large amounts are involved the best way to pay is via wire transfer (only to a company account, avoid personal account wire transfer at any cost) or credit card through reputable online payment systems.
In terms of safety, if you don't already know, the industry is considered to have some of the highest transaction values, thus providing avenues for scammers to play a role in the booking process. Here are some safety tips:

Avoid unusually low or high prices: When it looks too good for the price or too cheap for the value then it may be a scam, also if its over priced. Ensure to find the best price guarantee tag in booking sites to ensure you are safe.

Not inspected villas: Villas that go unchecked may have maintenance, service and other problems. These type of villas may also be featured as managed villas, often found in villa marketplaces.

Watch for hidden cost and fees: Many times there are hidden fees involved which are not supposed to incur, check for these and avoid hidden fees aside from Surcharges, Tax and Service fees.

Insure your trip: You can never go wrong!
