Seven reasons to book a villa for your next dream getaway

Private pools, peaceful gardens, vast living spaces – and it’s all yours. Whether you’re travelling as a couple, family or with a group of friends, booking a villa is one of the easiest ways to holiday, with a guarantee of freedom, flexibility and incredible value for money.

With CV Villas, you’ll not just stay in some of the most beautiful hand-picked homes across the Mediterranean, Caribbean and more, but you’ll experience so much more of the area when you’re there. Here are just a handful more reasons why booking a villa for your next holiday may just be the best decision you make.

You get so much more for your money

Scour the CV Villas website and you’ll quickly see that villa holidays can be astonishingly good value. Think plush pads with infinity pools looking out over glittering sea, olive tree-dotted gardens, high-spec kitchens and homes worthy of celeb guests. That may cost you £1665 for a week, but when you find out it sleeps ten – and that figure becomes just £277 per person for seven nights – it becomes even more affordable, especially when compared to the price of a hotel room.

You’ll have serious amounts of space and privacy

When you rent a villa you’re not just confined to your hotel room and balcony, something that can be particularly tricky for parents when there’s a sleeping child to tiptoe around. Villas give you plenty of privacy and play areas, whether it’s an outdoor sofa with serene sea views, a bench in bougainvillea-draped gardens, numerous bedrooms (often with their own ensuite) or light-filled living spaces. Then of course, there’s your own private pool, for gentle laps or hardcore splashing. It’s a home away from home feeling – but better.

Mealtimes are made easy

A private chef? Just for you? Whether it’s a special occasion or you just fancy handing the dicing and dishes to someone else for a night – or a week – CV Villas is on hand to arrange a private chef, guaranteeing a delicious meal. Villas also give so much meal time flexibility too. Managing mealtimes as a family can be tricky – any parent who’s suffered the agonising wait for a restaurant to open, or in between courses, while their child gets even more hungry and tired, will relate. That’s before you think about the various family members who like to dine at different times – whether it’s a 6am toddler breakfast, or a 4pm…
