Holiday Homes from 4u2-rent

4u2-rent.co.uk offers the visitor a worldwide selection of holiday homes, ranging from luxury villas in exotic locations for those special occasions to more modest good quality accommodation for that well deserved break.

All property adverts are created by their owners and reviewed prior to being displayed on the site to ensure they are of a good standard compared to other properties being offered in their vicinity. Those not meeting these standards are politely refused.

Rather than having to navigate through a selection of screens to initiate your search for a property, the Home Page gives instant access to our comprehensive search facility. We believe this to be one of the best of its type, allowing properties to be searched either for exact requirements, or on a best fit basis where the adverts are returned in the order in which they best meet the the visitor's wish list.

Specialist Rentals

Our Specialist Rentals indexes allow easy access to those looking for somewhere to celebrate that special occasion such as a wedding or to combine their holiday with their their favourite pastime or interest. To qualify for inclusion in these indexes, the advertisers have to include a section in their adverts containing details of what they offer. This may be range from full details of courses or activities they run themselves, to information about local courses or activities available in the local area which they can make a significant contribution to arranging and organising on behalf of their guests.

Search Facilities and Interactive Maps

A hierarchy of interactive maps provide the visitor with a quick and easy alternative to the drop down selection boxes that allow the visitor to navigate through the many locations on offer while allowing the visitor to orientate themselves with their selected location. The basic search criteria allowing the visitor to search for properties by type, sleeping capacity, number of bedroom, availability and price is augmented through the advanced search facility by selection from a comprehensive list of attributes with the option to search for an exact match or to rank them in their order of importance returning the results in a best fit order.

Visitor guides at various levels of the hierarchy provide an insight into the location being searched while links within the guides provide access to more comprehensive information from expert providers.

Summary Adverts

Summary adverts displayed in the search results provide the visitor with an overview of the property, its location, size and price range and also allows the visitor to add the property to a personal list of selected properties for later comparison.

While the contents of the adverts will vary depending on the creative skills and verbosity of the advertiser, the facilities are there for the advertiser to create a comprehensive advert of photos, descriptive text and pre-formatted information, including a Google map showing the location of the property and any international airports in the locality which, when clicked will take the visitor to a global flight search engine providing the visitor with information and prices on flights to that airport.

Booking Enquires

All booking enquires take place directly between the visitor and advertiser. This can be either by phone, skype, or by visiting the advertisers web-site if the information has been made available or by email through the contact form which is present on every advert.

Advertisers

For the advertiser a choice of advert types allows for various combinations of accommodation to be advertised from the standalone self-catering villa or apartment to complexes containing multiple accommodation units on the same site providing both catered and self-catering accommodation. An advert format is also available for guesthouse, B&B and boutique hotel accommodation which puts greater emphasis on individual room descriptions.

For advertisers of multi unit properties the system aggregates the capacity of each combination of individual unit thereby making their offering available to visitors searching for accommodation from the capacity of the smallest unit up to the maximum capacity of all units on their site.

A comprehensive set of screens allows advertisers to create their adverts in draft form in individual sections that describe both the property and its location with individual sections to create contact details, charges, an availability calender, a Google map, web-site links and the ability to upload their photographs. These details can be entered, amended and viewed as a completed advert at any time allowing the advertiser to build and review their adverts in their own time-scale. Once an advertiser is satisfied his adverts contents it can be exported to our live system where it will be available to our web-site visitors.

Advertising with Us

Although we are a selective site which means we reserve the right to refuse advertisements for properties we do not consider offer accommodation suited to our targeted visitors it is rare that we have to decline an advert.

Full details of our advertising options, prices and how to get started can be found on our Advertise with Us page.
