Homelidays.com - travel accomodation

Advantages: Cheap, comfortable accomodation
Disadvantages: Dealing with private owners that may be unreliable

This web site (there is very possibly more like it) is my new way of hunting for holiday accommodation. It is international accommodation to suit almost any budget (apart from dorm room budgets) but at the moment Europe seems to be where most of the accommodation is advertised.

The basic idea
Private house owners that want to rent their properties to tourists set up an account and can advertise as many properties as they like. ...
...my girlfriend and I have just got back from over a month traveling through Spain. We did a lot of research on accommodation for rooms with a double bed and a private bathroom (we're a little old to be sleeping in dorm beds now). What surprised us about this form of accommodation is that it can actually work out cheaper than a room in a hostel and you get all the comforts of home. I'm talking about a washing machine, microwave and oven, dish washer ... more

Quick review of homelidays.com

As an owner advertising my apartment on the Homelidays website, I want to assure potential renters that there is a stringent code of practise operated by Homelidays prior to your advert being accepted for publishing. I find it upsetting that an owner would mislead a potential rental regarding their property and would image that this really is the exception to the rule. May I take this opportunity to assure renters that I personally demand a high standard and as I (like other fellow) owners use the property myself that I always make sure the advert is a true reflection of the property and spend a lot of money maintaining its standard. Owner El Dorado Apartments, Playa Las Americas, Tenerife. ...

Quick review of homelidays.com

Four of us recently (0807) spent 2 nights at Ferme Prevost de Courmiere in Capelle de Hesdin, Norde de Calais, home of Andre and Annie Lombardet. We received an exceptionally warm welcome at their delightful well appointed elderly large and spacious farmhouse and enjoyed a gourmet dinner prepared and hosted by them. We highly recommend Andre and Annie for their professionalism as absolutely excellent hosts. Our memory of our time there will be one of first class dining, hospitality and understated French style. ...

Avoid Homelidays like the plague

Advantages: Easy to use website
Disadvantages: Refuses to publish negative reviews of properties

My wife and I rented an apartment for two weeks in Tropea, Italy through Homelidays.com. The website stated that "98% of renters satisfied with their stay." The apartment we selected had received 100% glowing reviews from previous renters. When we arrived, we discovered the description the owner had given to the website contained major misrepresentations as to location, size and features. The apartment was totally unacceptable for our purposes; we ...
...return, I wrote a negative review for the property. Homelidays, however, refused to post the review, saying the owner disagreed with it and Homelidays had no way of telling who was right. No wonder there were only positive reviews! Nothing on Homelidays' website said negative reviews were not published. After this experience, I would tell everyone to avoid Homelidays. They are clearly only interested in renting property and not giving honest feedback ...

Feedback from Homelidays

Advantages: Feedback from Homelidays
Disadvantages: Feedback from Homelidays

Homelidays takes negative renter testimonials very seriously and following such a testimonial we contact the owner in order to gather more information on the stay in question and to give them the opportunity to reply to the renter's comments. Following the owners response and after having looked at their personal dossier (for previous testimonials, history on the site, other renter stays…), we make a decision on whether or not to publish the testimonial. ...
...all testimonials written on a rental stay and they are never deleted from an owners personal dossier. Therefore, even if certain testimonials are not published, we can refer to them in recurring cases. We ask renters and owners to justify the scores they give in their testimonials. They are not made non-validated simply because the scores are below 5, but a motive for non-validation is if the score is not justified by the renter's comments. The ...
