Simply Owners is an advertising website that offers private holiday rentals with no booking fees or commission. This includes all types of holiday accommodation, from cottages to villas. We advertise holiday cottages in the UK, but also villas, gites, apartments and more in holiday destinations across the world.
No commission, no guest fees: Simply Owners is an affordable option.
Fairness: Simply Owners wants to make listing fair on both owners and guests, and is combatting the negative practices of other booking sites.
Direct communication: Holidaymakers can speak directly to owners, building human connections and getting questions answered quicker, especially when guests have accessibility or other specific needs.
Transparency and trust: As all listings are vetted and there's open communication, guests feel more trusting. The Payment Protection certificate underscores this trust.
Control over your business: For owners, Simply Owners gives them more control over what bookings they get and how they run their business.
Local experiences: With Simply Owners, you're staying in someone's home, rather than a business.
Simply Owners only provide advertising space for holiday-home owners and connect potential holidaymakers with them directly. It does not vet any properties nor verify any comments or content entered in the advert by you, the holiday-home owner. It is you, the holiday-home owner, therefore that is solely responsible for the representations made in the advert placed with Simply Owners.
Also, as Simply Owners does not have any kind of contract with any holidaymaker, financial or otherwise, it cannot be considered a ‘renter’ and drawn into any form of rental agreements, licences or any form of contract with the holidaymaker or third party.
IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU CHECK EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR ADVERT, BEFORE IT GOES LIVE, TO ENSURE ALL DETAILS ARE CORRECT.
