If you’re planning a vacation to the British Virgin Islands in the near future, you are probably looking at various hotels, and villa rentals. A BVI villa rental can be an ideal solution if you’re vacationing with your family and want a more private setting. But not all villa rentals are the same. Here are a few things to look for before you book:
- Price: Obviously, you want something that fits within your budget. Their website should have all of the prices listed for the days that you will be travelling there. Keep in mind that if you’re travelling during peak season (Spring Break, for example) the price may be higher than in off-season dates.
- Reputation: The villa’s reputation should be impeccable. That is, they should give great service and respond to problems quickly. Thanks to sites like TripAdvisor, this is easy to find out. Browse through some of the villa’s guest comments to get an idea of what kind of service you can expect.
- Book online: Most accommodations let you book online. Make sure you get a confirmation once you’ve booked, and print out your reservation/receipt.
- Check the website: The website should have a complete list of their amenities, their location and other pertinent information.
- Amenities and features of the villa: Make a list of amenities that are important to you. Do you want access to a pool? How many bedrooms do you need? Do you want a kitchen that is equipped with all of the latest appliances, or do you just need a fridge, stove and microwave? Are there housekeeping services available? What attractions and events are close by? How far is it from the beach?
A reputable BVI villa rental can make your dream vacation even better. Make sure you know what you’re renting before making any final decisions.
