Spain Villa Rental: What NOT to do while booking

A villa rental in Spain is probably one of the most enjoyable, cost-effective and fun ways to holiday in this country. With thousands of options available to suit every budget, holiday preference, holiday needs, diet and mobility preferences, age, gender, etc., with a little time, patience and research you can give yourself the holiday of your dreams!

However, your dream holiday could easily morph into a nightmare – unless you're careful you could be scammed, waste your time/money and return with a suitcase full of nasty memories. Villa rentals being one of the most popular holiday choices world-wide, there's plenty of scope for the unscrupulous and the confidence-trickster to ply their trade here! The villa rental business runs mainly on mutual trust and this is one thing you have to keep in mind. There are thousands of agents and travel agencies who offer their services at a price – here again you need to be wary.


Here's what NOT to do:
Not being upfront: Give all your preferences, expectations, requirements and numbers accurately. Don't expect the service-staff to suddenly accommodate pets, extra guests, seniors etc at the last moment after you arrive. Don't give fake phone numbers, names, e-mail ids, etc as this is not only discourteous but can also boomerang. If you're a group of guys or girls, teens or seniors, give this information to the owner, as many villas are slated as exclusively “family accommodation” and your request could be instantly denied.
Not asking: If you're looking for discounts, be direct about it, since very often, villa owners may wait for you to ask before offering them. Read the terms and conditions carefully beforehand and make a list of questions you want to ask the owner.


Believing everything: This is the biggest mistake that first-time villa renters make! They get lured by fancy brochures, glossy pictures and glowing recommendations and could end up feeling angry, frustrated or worse, losing their money. Cross check the information provided – for instance “near the beach” could mean five km away! Are there enough supermarkets, medical facilities, accessibility to transport, entertainment and leisure centers and would you be able to fulfill your holiday requirements?

Not respecting the property: Remember that the villa is essentially a home and not a hotel. Don't crowd 15 people into a villa meant for six. Often the owners have to declare the occupancy and pay taxes and utilities based on this. Ensure that you or your co-travelers don't damage the property or the facilities. Check the terms and conditions carefully before finalizing.

Keep these pointers in mind for a happy and comfortable villa rental holiday in Spain!
