Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does Villapicker work?

    It’s effortlessly simple. Just enter your destination and travel dates in the search bar, and we’ll promptly present you with a curated selection of thousands of options. From there, you can refine your search using our extensive filters to find the ideal accommodation tailored to your needs.

  • I am a holiday rental owner, but I cannot find my accommodation listing on Villapicker. What should I do?

    Not to worry! Here are a few common reasons this might happen: first, ensure that the dates you’re searching for match your accommodation’s availability. Searching for unavailable dates is often the main cause. Try also disabling the “instant booking” filter, as some properties may not be available for immediate booking. Still having trouble? Email us at [email protected] with your listing link, and we’ll get back to you within 48 hours with a solution.

  • I am a traveller looking to book accommodation. Is Villapicker free to use?

    Absolutely! Villapicker is completely free for all travellers, and it will always remain so.

  • Who are the people behind Villapicker?

    We are passionate travel enthusiasts dedicated to making your search for the perfect accommodation as effortless as possible. It’s our mission to enhance your travel experience at every step.

  • How does Villapicker make money?

    We earn a commission from the sites we feature, but rest assured, travellers pay absolutely nothing—zero, nada!

  • Is my accommodation booked directly through Villapicker?

    No, when you book, you will be redirected to the website where the accommodation is listed for final booking.

  • Is there a difference between the displayed price and the final price?

    At Villapicker, we strive to ensure that the price you see on our site reflects the final price on the original marketplace. However, there may occasionally be a slight discrepancy. If you spot one, simply reach out to us at [email protected], providing the listing link, merchant name, destination, dates, and accommodation name. We’ll take care of the rest!

  • How does instant booking work?

    Instant booking allows you to secure your rental or hotel immediately, with no additional cost. Once you click, your booking is confirmed, and you’ll receive instant confirmation. If booking through a private owner, they may cancel, but only in rare and justified cases. This feature is perfect for last-minute plans, saving you from the delay of traditional confirmation. It’s set as the default, but you can easily disable it if preferred.

  • What choice of accommodation is there?

    We offer all types of villas and holiday homes! You’ll find classic villas and holiday homes, but you can also search for cabins in the woods or a cottage in Dorset. You’ll find everything you’re looking for here.

  • What if I can’t find a villa?

    We’ve done our best to avoid this, but sometimes it still happens. If you run into this, simply reach out to us at [email protected], and we’ll assist you.

  • Can we contact you?

    Of course! Please don’t hesitate to email us at [email protected], and we’ll reply within 48 hours.
