[Archived] Villas

[ABBEY]

we are thinking of having a family holiday this year in a villa. We are not sure where yet or total numbers. We are working on 10 people,4 adults,2 teenagers and 4 little ones oldest being 8. Any ideas or recomendations,either places ,resorts ,websites etc. We are looking at no more than a 4 hour flight.

cheers ABS.

What are you looking for in terms of a resor: chips or tapas?

Gozo is nice and quiet...am I right to asume that you are the quiet type?

Alternatively if you are a bit of a raver then what about Cyprus.

My advice would be to book it all yourself. When we've rented a villa direct from the owner the cost has been far lower than working through an agency. I think we used ownersdirect.co.uk last time. It all worked out OK. Turkey was good.

I can recommend http://www.joesvillas.com

Never stayed there (three villas in the same town in Portugal), but Joe is a top bloke and the thousands of pics I trawled through doing the website looked great.

Agree with Paul on this. Owners Directis very good.

You could spend hours looking through it though!

I've used them for the Algarve, Javea and Cyprus several times in the last 5 years and can't recommend them highly enough

Abbey....if you fancy Spain - nice place called Calpe..perfect for families - about 50 mins from benidorm.
