Choosing A Luxury Villa In Italy

There are many luxury villas in Italy to choose from. But what factors should influence your decision?

PRICE – If money is no object there are a huge range of luxury villa holidays to choose from. From medieval castles adorned to town centre modern sprawling villas with private pools, you are sure to find luxury villa holidays in Italy to give you the holiday of a lifetime. But the price of the villa is not all you will have to pay for, so make sure you take other costs into account when setting a budget.

Villa hire will not cover flights or transfers, which may eat up a large percentage of your holiday money. Use a website like Skyscanner.net to compare flight prices.

Even though you are buying a luxury villa holiday you still need to consider hidden costs. Prices may not include towel hire, linen change, extra beds, air-conditioning, WiFi, or staff such as maids, chefs or chauffeurs. To avoid a nasty surprise at the end of your holiday find out exactly what you are paying for. You will probably also have to pay a deposit, which is understandable when a luxury villa is in your hands, but make sure you have enough Euros to pay for this on arrival.

If you are looking for finishing touches to make your stay extra special, think about booking a chef (for the entire stay or a single special meal), a maid (if service is not included), champagne or flowers, a hamper, wine tasting, cookery courses or a taxi which will be ready for your arrival. Good booking companies of luxury villa holidays will be able to provide these for you, ensuring that you have a holiday to remember.

LOCATION- Look at the location in regards to you and your fellow travellers’ needs. Think about what you prioritise, be it activity, history, sightseeing or just beautiful surroundings to relax in. Some luxury villas are conveniently set within town centres, whereas others offer panoramic views across the sea from a high location. Does your party require nearby shops, sights, or a sea view, or do you want a small and exclusive romantic retreat? Whether or not you have access to a car with a driver is a key deciding factor when it comes to location if you are hoping to make visits during your holiday.

The Tuscan countryside comprises picture-postcard rolling hills, there are villas with panoramic views on the Amalfi coast, or try the Italian lakes for blue waters on your doorstep. Italy has something to please everyone, so researching possible locations is important. If your perfect holiday is more about relaxation in the villa and its grounds, accommodation will be more important.

ACCOMMODATION – There are a range of luxury holiday villas in Italy, each with their own charm. The extravagant purchase of a luxury villa holidays means that your accommodation should be perfect. The number of bedrooms and bathrooms is important, as is whether you have your own pool, whether you have to share one, or whether you do not have one at all.

Look into other amenities such as a garden, barbeque, private beach access or parking space. You may require staff such as a chef, nanny, maid, chauffeur, waiting staff, masseuse, personal trainer or a concierge service. Good luxury villa holidays agents will be able to arrange these for you on request, but one or more may be included in the price.
