RENT YOUR OWN PRIVATE VILLA

Many people want something exclusive, private, luxurious with or without well trained staff, a driver, chef, nanny, the requests are endless. Take the stress out of travel planning and use a travel specialist to recommend the perfect holiday villa whether you are looking for a beach retreat, a ski chalet, or even your own private island. All of the locations would be wonderful for a honeymoon or a destination wedding. No matter where in the world you want to go, we have a suggestion for you.

We get rave thanks from people who want something different, and don’t have the time to do all the research and are nervous about picking the right property for their needs and budget. Of course, the prices vary from location, size, and time of year but it is considered a very economical way to travel if you want a luxurious property for the family. You can have several families rent a home, or perhaps the grandparents take it for several weeks with members of the family coming and going for a week at a time.

We can suggest properties all over the world, but a hot destinations is Europe.

We have as many as thirty luxurious villas in Tuscany alone, with more on the Amalfi Coast and Capri since Italy is a very popular destination. They are all distinctive properties ranging from charming farmhouses and maisonettes to lavish estates. Many are elegantly furnished and offer swimming pools, fully equipped kitchens, magnificent gardens and wine cellars. Staying in a villa in a great location, offers you a home base to explore some of Italy’s most beautiful regions, discover the charms of local villages, and you can celebrate special occasions right at home. You can have your own private guide, who can arrange VIP sightseeing for you.

For a family wanting something special for their time together, the opportunities are many. It is an ideal and economical way to have a holiday with family or friends. We have coordinated many family holidays where the people fly in from destinations all over the world to join up at the private villa, taking care of airline reservations, transfers, trains, and making sure the group travel is effortless. Having a nannie for small children in the group ensures that the parents have a well deserved rest.

The top beach villas are Cote d’Azur, Crete, and Majorca.

The top family villas are in Provence, Tuscany, Andalucia.

The top five “wow” villas are in Catalonia, Tuscany, Provence, Cote d”Azur and the Cotsworlds, England.

If you are a skier, having family and friends in your own chalet in places like Val d’Isere, Klosters, Verbier, or Zermatt is a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is so much better than staying in a hotel, and these locations are usually guaranteed fantastic snow. Skiing in the Alps is a wonderful experience. Many places I have stayed are ski in and ski out. What a blessing to be so close to the slopes.

Perhaps you haven’t thought of this idea. Try it for your next holiday. You get knowledge and expertise, best value for your travel dollar, and peace of mind when you deal with a villa specialist who has first hand experience and insider connections.
