The joy of saving a few dollars is nothing compared to memories of a spoiled vacation. Some web sites advertise deceptively low rental rates to attract potential clients and then try to sell them something else afterwards. Some promise services they don't deliver or advertise villas which don't even exist.
Here are some hints on how to protect yourself from false claims and/or unreliable companies so you can avoid possible disaster:

Always book through a reputable villa rental specialist or travel agent. If you deal directly with villa owners, they will always try to convince you their own villa is the best choice. They are hardly objective, of course, and their ideas regarding "quality" often don't meet international standards.

On the other hand, every established villa rental specialist (good travel agents will not deal with any other) will know most of the available villas in his/her area and will only recommend those which really meet your individual requirements and expectations.

Make sure the villa rental company has a professionally staffed office at your destination to help with any problems which may arise during your stay. Only companies with an on-site office are in a position to monitor the maintenance of the villas and the performance of house staff, and be on call around the clock to help in emergencies.

Avoid booking through the growing number of villa rental web sites which list any villa without inspection as long as the owner pays a fee or commission. Advertisers can promise you ANYTHING – because the web site operators/owners have no liability whatsoever.
