VacationVillas.net offers you the opportunity to
enter special offers for your property in a way that potential guests can search
and find them systematically. Every property listing with a special offer will
automatically be listed in our separate special offers index which is directly
linked from the home page. By publishing special offers you can systematically
increase the bookings for your property for certain periods.
Special offers will only be published for properties
listed at VacationVillas.net. In order to get your special offer marked in
your availability calendar, the travel period of the special offer has to be
marked as "available". If the availability status for the special offer
period is "unknown" or "booked",
your special offer will not be shown in your property listing.
Special offers can be marked as last-minute offers
if they comply with the following legal requirements: Last-minute offers must
include a reduction of the price and the arrival day must not be more than
14 days ahead of the
current date.
Only if these rules are fulfilled, your offer will be marked as a last-minute offer on the Internet. Should the last-minute rule not apply to your offer, it will be marked as a special offer. Vacation Villas International GmbH is not liable for falsely published last-minute offers.

To ensure the quality and credibility of all special
offers listed with VacationVillas.net, it is important that you publish only
special offers in your property listing that are really available. As soon
as your property is fully booked at the offer date, please do necessarily mark
this period as "booked" in your
availability calendar.
We reserve the right to suspend special offers from the listing without prior consultation of the advertiser if a guest complains concretely about a certain special offer.
