Villa holidays
We have been asked to investigate a growing trend in the holiday trade. Increasingly, travel agencies and the like are being excluded from the activity which earns their bread and butter. Folks are sorting out their villa holidays on their own and travel agents are not best pleased! This was almost bound to happen when so many private investors have bought holiday homes and everyone logs on almost daily to the internet. These two developments have come together in the form of villa holidays.
To give some focus to our research, we decided go through the process of booking ourselves a family break, in particular checking our options for villa holidays in Florida. Very soon we discovered an offering which, if widespread, has to be a magnet for holidaymakers and a slap in the face for travel agents everywhere.
The website Villa in Orlando is a joint venture, excluding the middleman, of 60 private owners of luxury villa owners, who all provide villa holidays situated at the exclusive Highlands Reserve Golf and Country Club in Davenport, Orlando. On the same website, those booking one of the villa holidays are also able to get quotes for cheap flights to Florida, car hire when there, travel insurance and airport parking, as well as pre-ordering discount tickets for Disney, Universal Studios, Sea World, Busch Gardens, and others, all tickets delivered to your villa holidays address. With this service, who needs a travel agent?
Before booking, we checked and found that villa holidays were available in a choice of 3, 4, 5, and 6 bed luxury villas. Very quickly we recognised that an essential ingredient of all villa holidays is to have one’s own privately-screened swimming pool. Of course, every villa had one. This struck us as an obvious plus of all villa holidays. Don’t we all have our own ideas of fun when it comes to water? And in a hotel, fellow guests don’t often agree with us, particularly with mixed nationalities. This got us thinking about other hotel holiday causes of friction, such as noise within the building. Here again, villa holidays scored with us.
We could see so many advantages for villa holidays that we finally took the plunge, had the holiday, wrote up the findings from our research, and straight away booked next year’s villa holidays. Its villa holidays for us again. See you in Orlando!
