6 reasons to book a finca directly with an agency

  1. Being with family and friends in a private environment is priceless

Renting a villa has some advantages that you will not find in a hotel. The more people stay in the house, the cheaper the price per person or per night if you stay in a hotel. Instead of paying for 3, 4 or 5 hotel rooms, you can reserve a finca by splitting the cost among the guests. Another advantage is the privacy provided by the private pool, as well as the additional private recreation areas of some villas and extras such as ping pong table, trampolines and small playgrounds or sports fields. Cocktails by the pool and drinks at sunset also work best if you buy directly from the supermarket and cook at home. You can pay up to 20 euros for a plate of pasta in a hotel in Mallorca – in our opinion, staying in a villa is simply better.

  1. An agency will be able to manage everything you want.

As in any hotel, an agency can manage every single service you want to rent. A massage in the pool, catering service, bike rental, car rental, reservation in restaurants or excursions … The agency adapts to your needs and offers solutions to all your proposals and requests.

  1. Booking directly with the owner or manager of the finca can reduce the reservation by up to 15%.

Since there are so many portals that specialize in renting properties, the prices of a particular house can vary up to 15% depending on the portal and even on the same platform the same house can appear repeatedly, but with different prices. In many cases, up to 4 intermediaries can be involved in the reservation.

The best way to get by without an agent is to contact the owner of the finca directly. There are many owners who offer their properties directly on many portals, but many choose to outsource the management of their properties to agencies likeMallorca Charme delegate, as they either do not have time to manage reservations or do not have sufficient language and administrative skills.


Booking through a vacation rental agency is one of the best options for several reasons:

  1. There is the certainty that the customer will find what he has booked when he arrives at his destination.

From the moment the request for a property is made until the client leaves, a whole process takes place between the agency and the client. All payments are taken into account as well as meeting points, address or coordinates of the house and clarify doubts and suggestions of the customer.

  1. Possible complaints or claims from the customer.

If the customer has a problem or there is an incident in the house, such as burglary, damage to the house, etc., the customer will receive the support of the agency at the time of making a possible complaint. Nevertheless, the agency must process the complaint in a subordinate way and see if it can be complained is or not (that the crickets do not let you sleep at night does not count). By this we mean that the customer will not feel alone.

  1. Support or call center 24 hours a day.

The agency must provide the customer with a 24-hour contact number so that he can contact them as soon as possible in case of problems. This gives the customer much more security, as he knows that he can contact the agency in his native language in case of problems.
