The press are again stating more and more holiday firms are struggling in the current economic climate. Yet people still want holidays - especially if you have a young family!
We've only just come back from 12 days in La Mata, having booked villas in costa blanca, but every time my children see me looking at holiday rental properties, they immediately ask "ooohhh, is that where we are going next?"
So, what is the alternative? Well, more and more people are looking at Direct holiday homes. These are rented direct by the owner, or via a letting agent. You tend to pay per week per property - rather than per person. Then you book flights through one of the many budget airlines (choose one of the profitable ones) - and arrange transfers (which can often be done via the agents). And there are some serious savings to be made. Our 12 days in La Mata (July - school holidays) was less than a thousand pounds for all 4 of us.
In our experience, the quality of self catering accommodation is far greater than a package tour deal too. And there is plenty of choice - http://www.whlvillas.com/ lists over 15,000 properties across Europe - everything from villas to rent in costa del sol to apartments in bulgaria sunny beach. It's not just summer holidays either - take a look at our winter sun destinations.
So if you are fed up with high package tour prices, then make Direct holiday homes your next choice...
