A villa in the peaceful countryside, a holiday haven by the sea, or a centrally located urban retreat, Villa Plus really does make finding your perfect holiday easy. Before settling on Villa Plus, I’ve explored pretty much every type of holiday accommodation out there: budget hostels, all-inclusive resorts, family rentals, hotel splurges, and even a spare room in a Parisian apartment (awkward, overpriced, never again). But none of them quite matched the ease and comfort I found with Villa Plus.
Tried it all – here’s what works
Hands down, for me, the villa always wins. With Villa Plus, having your own private space in a great location, with that home-from-home feeling, allows you to melt into the holiday experience like no other. Even the most luxurious all-inclusive resorts come with schedules, crowds, and set menus, so it’s hard to feel like the holiday is truly yours. That’s why I keep coming back to Villa Plus, as I have the flexibility to unwind on my own terms.
Freedom to holiday your way
In a Villa Plus villa, those craving a slower pace can have long, lazy mornings, make breakfast whenever they like, read by the pool, or wander down to the beach. For adventure-seekers, there’s the freedom to get up at sunrise, head off on a hike and not worry about racing back to catch a scheduled lunch.
The well-equipped kitchens in each villa are a game-changer, too. Especially for families like mine, with every dietary requirement under the sun (at hotels, there’s always someone who ends up hungry at the buffet!) With Villa Plus, we can buy our own food, cook when we want, and save on dining costs, yet still treat ourselves to a lovely restaurant meal when we’re in the mood. It’s the best of both worlds.
From private pools to pool tables
Every single Villa Plus property comes with its own private pool. No sharing, no awkward small talk with strangers, just you and your crew soaking up the sun in peace. Whether it’s a morning dip, a lazy afternoon float, or teaching the kids how to dive, it’s yours to enjoy whenever you fancy. And it doesn’t stop there. Loads of villas come with extras included, like table tennis, pool tables, barbecues, and even pool heating. It’s the kind of setup that makes staying in just as tempting as heading out.
Support that’s actually supportive
Not many travel companies can say they have a team on the ground, but Villa Plus can. Whether you’ve got a question before you travel or something pops up while you’re away, they’re always ready to help you figure it out. No robotic replies, just friendly, solution-focused people who actually want your trip to be as relaxing as can be. And honestly, it’s nice to know there’s someone real on the other end of the phone when you need them.
Stress-free booking with Villa Plus
Finding a villa that ticks all the right boxes can be a challenge – syncing flights, transport, and checking for nearby amenities adds to the stress. This is where Villa Plus comes in. The easy-to-use website helps you discover your perfect villa in three ways:
- If you’re fixed on location and dates, fill these into the homepage search bar, then use the filters to narrow down your villa options
- If you’re keen on a destination but are not fussy about when you go, check out the handy best price finder for the lowest prices month by month
- If you’re open to holiday ideas, try the helpful ‘inspire me’ tool
Personally inspect and select every villa
Unlike a lot of travel companies, Villa Plus only recommends places they’ve visited themselves. Yep, every villa is checked out in person and must pass at least five rounds of inspection before it’s listed (and honestly, more get rejected than accepted). And as they know the villas inside and out, the descriptions on the site are refreshingly clear and honest. No vague or wishy-washy descriptions here. That way, the poor “organised person” in your group who gets dumped with the booking responsibility can have peace of mind. And best of all, the Villa Plus team is just a call away, ready to help with advice, suggestions, and reassurance when you need it.
Excellent on Trustpilot
Let’s be honest, reviews are usually the first thing we all check when planning a holiday. And when it comes to Villa Plus, the feedback speaks volumes. With over 35,000 reviews from real customers on Trustpilot and an excellent overall score, it’s clear people genuinely love their villa experiences. These aren’t cherry-picked quotes either; they’re independent, regulated reviews that give you the full picture. So, if you want to see what others have to say before you book, head over to Trustpilot and take a look for yourself.
