Villa holidays are ideal for couples, families and groups that wish to cater for themselves and really explore their local surrounding. Villa accommodation can often be a more traditional reflection of your chosen destination’s culture, displaying authentic local architecture in their happily situated spacious settings.
They truly do come in all shapes and sizes, but most are either bungalow or split-level styles with many set in their own gardens and offering accommodation suitable for parties from as little as 2 people up to large groups of around 12. Their large capacity can help reduce the individual cost of a holiday and coupled together with their aspect of privacy, makes them a popular choice for families and friends holidaying together. Dependant on the size of your villa, features can include open-plan kitchen/diners, sun terraces, private pools, private parking and al fresco dining areas.
Many people choose villa holidays for their distance from the heavily populated coastal resorts but this also means that their more tranquil and remote locations are far from the amenities and travel links that those resorts offer, often making car hire an essential element of many villa holidays. However, some villas are a part of a larger complex or holiday village style resort and can benefit from the shared facilities such as eateries, bars, entertainment and kids clubs, alongside pools, sports and a broad choice of activities.
While conventionally booked as accommodation-only from providers like Villas To Go and Holiday Lettings, there are many villa operators such as Meon Villas, Villa Parade and James Villas that now offer special package deals with flights included. Many of these merchants available through the TravelPixel site also offer car hire as a part of, or discounted benefit of the deal.
