Last year a few of us were at a loose end in September and wanted to go away but we didn’t want to do the same old package holiday deal so we started looking around the Internet to see if there were any websites that offered more exclusive holidays. We came across a site that has been around for quite some time called OwnersDirect, basically a site that holiday home owners offer their flat, villa or apartment to rent without the hassle of a tour operator so we thought it would be a good website to review.
About The Site
Ownersdirect is a very well structured website that lets you search for a place to stay nearly anywhere in the world. It allows you to see when a place is empty and the standard rates the owners charge as well as giving you contact details. Last year we found a Villa in Majorca which was empty with a private pool and were able to negotiate a significant discount on the list price.
As OwnersDirect only charges the villa owner a set fee for the listing it means that you, the user are not paying commission and for them provides an ideal opportunity to rent their places out.
What We Think
To be honest we are a massive fan of OwnersDirect as it is really easy to use, there are no hidden extras and you don’t have to worry about what sort of place you are staying in because most of these places are used by their owners as well. We’d definitely recommend anyone to visit OwnersDirect before they book their next holiday. You will be amazed at the quality and selection of accommodation at very reasonable prices.
