Villa holidays could offer the perfect solution for those families who want to get away from it all- on a budget. Thanks to rises in VAT and rising unemployment, more UK families are choosing to holiday at home this year, or not at all.
Villa rentals offer better value for money than a lot of hotels on the continent or even at home as families or groups of friends can sometimes save hundreds of pounds off the price of their accommodation compared to what they would probably pay at a hotel.

A survey carried out by bank ING Direct, has found that almost 40 per cent of Britons will stay in the UK for the summer rather than taking a holiday abroad in an attempt to save money.

With budget airlines slashing their prices here there and everywhere, and villa rentals at better value than ever, this year going on holiday abroad can still be achievable on a budget.

Azure Holidays has holiday villas to suit different budgets and different group sizes so you will never have to pay more than you have to for your accommodation. Rather than paying a leg and an arm for a family of four to stay in a ‘typical’ studio apartment in an overcrowded holiday complex, you could be enjoying a more relaxing time in a private villa with a smaller price tag.

When hiring a villa, you and your family can taste a little bit of luxury as you have spacious rooms complete with a full kitchen. Most of the villas also have access to either private gardens or a private pool meaning you do not have to listen to the Cunningham family from Birmingham going the hangover they are suffering from. A villa gives you more privacy, more space and more time to spend time with your family to relax- the whole point behind going on holiday really.
