A Pollensa villa with no booking fees
Same house, same dates, same welcome. Book here and there's no booking fee on top, and you pay 10% less than the estimated price on booking platforms.
From €207/night · whole house
How the price works
Many guests first come across the villa on a booking platform. There, the total a guest pays includes the platform's own fees. When you book with us directly, there's no booking fee and nobody in the middle, so we can pass part of that saving on to you.
The rule is simple and the same for every date: take the estimated booking-platform price of your nights, take off 10%, and add the €200 cleaning fee at cost – no service fee on top. The calendar on our home page works it out for you and shows both figures side by side.
What that looks like for a real stay
Two examples using our current rates. The platform figures are estimates; each platform sets its own fees and they can change.
| Stay | Approx. on booking platforms | Book direct | You save |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7 nights in July | about €9,085 | €8,170 | about €915 |
| 7 nights in October | about €1,840 | €1,649 | about €191 |

A price with no surprises
The price is for the whole house, not per person, for up to 8 guests. It includes one cleaning fee per stay (not per night), bed linen, a bath towel and a pool towel for every guest, Wi-Fi, air conditioning in every bedroom and visits from our gardener and pool technician.
The only thing not included is heating. If you need it in the cooler months, it's charged separately according to use, and we tell you that up front rather than at the end.

Booking direct, safely
Saving money only makes sense if you feel secure doing it. Villa l'Olivera is a licensed holiday rental, registration number ETV 1160. You receive a written quote by email with the dates, the number of guests and the full total before you commit to anything; sending the request form is free and doesn't tie you in. Once you're happy, you pay 50% to confirm and the remaining 50% on arrival, with no extra security deposit. If you cancel, the 50% paid at booking is non-refundable.
If you'd like to know more about who you'd be dealing with, the book direct page tells you about me and how the welcome works.
Why we can offer it
There's nothing clever about it. When you find us directly, there's less cost between you and the house, and we'd rather share that with you. Ten per cent might cover the car hire, a long lunch at Celler la Parra and a few rounds of ice cream at Can Butxaca.
