Our business partners, Amarante Villas, specialize in the rental of high quality villas in Portugal. Especially the Algarve, the region of Lisbon (coast) and the north of Portugal (above Porto). All villas feature a private pool and meet minimum quality standards.
In full cooperation with Amarante Villas, we use all international marketing channels and social media as well. Our agents are from all over the world. For example in the UK, Germany, France, Holland, Belgium, Finland, Canada, US, Portugal, etc.
Because of our extensive network and different ways we market the villas, we work not on a commission basis, but on NET to the property owner price rates. This means that we agree for a fixed price per week, per season and the property owner will receive payment when the Villa is booked. In that way we have a bit of flexibility with the prices. This is because marketing channels and agents all have a different commission rate and we can adapt the prices for each organisation.
In full cooperation with Amarante Villas, we reach clear agreements with the property owners in all aspects of their villas, including maintenance. we also check all the service agreements so that each Villa is well presented. We only take on villas of high quality, so giving our customers the highest sense of satisfaction. Amarante Villas has people (often friends) working for us in all important areas, who visit villa owners; make contracts, carry out quality checks; assist customers at check in and support them during their stay. Also our sales team is knowledgeable and visits the villas and the areas in which they are situated, keeping a close connection with all people connected with them.
We can also arrange services that optimise the ease and enjoyment of your vacation: local chefs to cook at your villas; car rental, wine tasting and many other services.
Because of our focus on Portugal, we can offer better service and quality. We want to focus 100% on quality and customer satisfaction.
