Booking our villa of choice was so easy

Booking our villa of choice was quick and very easy. We added a request in the comments field of the booking website and were very impressed when Alberto responded very quickly. He had passed our request on to the owners and got a response. He then called us to let us know our request could be accommodated. No deposit was taken until Alberto was sure we were happy with all details. We would definitely book through Oliver’s Villas again.

Fantastic flexibility

Fantastic, efficient and friendly service even on weekends . Chiara was super helpful when we needed to amend our trip dates, it was such a relief not to lose our trip due to a family emergency but instead be able to reschedule for a calmer period.
