Playing it safe!


Firstly, a happy and prosperous new year to friends of Quality Villas old and new!

As 2011 begins, we anxiously wait to see what this year throws up. Last year there was the famous Icelandic volcano, election, world cup and more... On a travel front, there were several instances of notable travel companies going to the wall, some without bonding in place. For clients that book with unbonded travel companies there is always the concern your money (which you are asked to pay up front) is at risk.

Booking directly with owners is similarly an issue - see this latest news feed

Of course we at Quality Villas, now in our 25th year of business, believe reputation speaks for itself. However if you choose a villa this year, whether direct with an owner or a company, do take care how and where you send your money. Holidays are eagerly anticipated each year and you want to be sure you will get yours, especially after you have paid for it!
