Today, Spain is still one of the most favoured holiday destinations for people who live in the UK.  However, rather than staying in hotels more and more people are choosing to rent holiday villas in Spain instead.  Not only can it work out much less expensive but also you have more freedom to do as you please during your stay in this warm and exciting country.

When it comes to finding the right villa for your holiday there are many disadvantages and advantages to be had from using an agent to find you the right one.  Below we take a look at just what some of the advantages and disadvantages are.

1.  The first advantage of booking your villa through an agent is that they have a wide range of villas in various locations available for you to select from.  All you need to do is tell them what it is you want and where you would like it to be and they will then find you some thing that matches your requirements.

2.  Another benefit of using an agent is that they may actually be able to help arrange all your flights and car hire as well.  This makes the whole process of booking your next holiday to this warm and inviting country much more enjoyable and effortless.

3.  Look for those agents who will have either an office or a representative close to where you property is situated.  Then you will know that there is someone to hand you the keys upon your arrival and also show you around the villa and explain just how everything in it works.

4.  There are a couple of disadvantages to be had from booking your holiday villa through an agent and the first one being that some may charge a high booking fee (commission) on top of the rental price.  Certainly some of the more unscrupulous agents are likely to charge 25% or more on top of the cost for renting the villa.  These are also likely to be the ones who provide you with terrible service and no back up in case of emergencies or problems that you may have during your stay.

5.  Also there are some agents who advertise properties for rent in Spain and who have never actually visited the properties they have available.  This means that they will not be able to provide you with important information regarding where you are staying and what local amenities and facilities are available to you.

If you want to avoid some of the pitfalls that comes with renting holiday villas in Spain through an agent it is important that you do some research first.  Spend time looking at each agent and comparing them others and see just exactly what they offer that will help to make your time in Spain that little easier and more enjoyable.
