Let me help you find the perfect villa – and avoid disappointment
In the March 2024 issue of Travel + Leisure magazine, Airbnb’s CEO made a shocking admission: “The single largest complaint we get every single day is, ‘This is not what I expected.’“
Your trip is too important, and your vacation time is too precious to take a risk with your accommodations – especially if you’re with family you don’t want to disappoint.
Whether you’re looking for a villa for a family reunion, an extended family holiday, or special anniversary, I am here for you! I’ve been renting and reviewing villas for over 25 years—on five continents. So I have lots of experience to share. I’ll also have some ideas on unique experiences for your group.
Simply fill out the request form below and we’ll set up a call where you can tell me about your trip. You can also write us at info@travelvillaguide.com if you prefer.

This service is for you if . . .
- You’re busy and don’t have the time or patience to sort through thousands of villas to find the perfect one.
- You’re visiting a place you may not know well and value the input of a local insider.
- You want your group exclaiming, “Oh my God, this villa is amazing!” rather than, “It looked different on the website.”
- You don’t want the same trip that everyone else books, and prefer tailor-made to cookie cutter.
- You’re a curious traveler interested in authentic experiences that offer a deeper connection to local culture.
- Your priority is quality time together and hassle-free travel, not stressing over directions, transportation, where to eat dinner, or organizing daily activities.
It’s NOT for you if . . .
- You enjoy planning every detail and have unlimited time to devote to it.
- You have a friend or cousin or neighbor who visited your destination once 20 years ago and “has all the answers”.
- You’re happy doing touristy activities and all you want is a checklist.
- You’re looking to do Disney World in two weeks, during school break.
Testimonial
How much did we love this trip? Let me count the ways:
1) Gorgeous accommodations – pinching ourselves from the moment we walked in the door.
2) Perfect location – no tourists in sight.
3) Comfort, service, and attention to detail, allowing us to sit back, relax, and enjoy the kids and beautiful surroundings.
4) Our English-speaking concierge took the pressure off not speaking the language. He was our benevolent overlord and cheerily handled everything. He arranged dinner in town one night and the owner fussed over us like we were the royal family. A special night.
5) I cried when it was time to leave.
BTW, please don’t spread the word about your service. We need you to be available for our next trip.
A thousand thanks,
Linda & Ian

PLEASE NOTE: My schedule allows me to help at most two or three families each month. So please, serious inquiries only. If you’re thinking that it might be nice to maybe go on a trip next year if, fingers crossed, you can coordinate 10 schedules, please wait until you are more certain of your plans before reaching out. Thank you. This allows me to help those most ready to travel.
