Welcome To Private Homes & Villas ! |
|
Private Homes & Villas was born out of frustration and two very grim holidays. I personally have found it extremely difficult to find decent and impartial information on villas to rent. As a result it has gone into ‘the too difficult tray’ and I have stayed in a hotel instead. Now in the absence of anything else we decided to do something about it.
|
|
Our firm belief is that the best recommendations come from people who have been there – tried the beds, sampled the food and been served by the staff. We at Private Homes & Villas do just that. Every villa on our website has been inspected by one of our staff, typically including an overnight stay (tough life I know!). The staff are seasoned villa experts having seen more villas than you or I could stay in for a lifetime.
|
|
Our aim is to tell you as we see it, so when you arrive for your dream holiday, you get what you were expecting and no hidden surprises. We pride ourselves on our complete independence – we have no vested interest in one villa to the next. We do have a vested interest in you agreeing with our reviews though because we would like you to use our services to book all your villas.
|
|
So what makes a great villa? Personally we prefer personality over pretension; friendliness and flexibility over facilities; and properties with originality, elegance and charm. We understand that service and staff are as important as the villa itself and hope this is reflected in our scores and comments. Nothing is perfect in this world so if there are areas we can improve do let us know.
|
|
We hope that we can take the hard work out of planning your next villa holiday.

About Jon - Prior to Private Homes & Villas, Jon Stonham co-founded asiahotels.com again after a number of disastrous personal hotel choices. It was the first website to introduce customer reviews in the region and was, up until it was sold in 2006, the only website to employ staff who inspected hotels and provided honest independent feedback for potential customers. The website spawned a series of best selling guides including Asia’s Best Hotels and Resorts (3 editions to date) and Australia & New Zealand’s Best Hotels & Resorts. The website and its friendly bellhop brand drew some 30,000 unique daily visitors attracted by its honest opinions.
