If you don’t want a vacation package for your annual vacation, then vacation villa rentals direct from the owners might be what you’re looking for. Not everyone wants their vacations organized for them. For some people, part of the joy is researching a destination and then booking their own Spain apartments for rent or holiday villas in Spain. You can do this quite easily if you have internet access. First, you need to find a website that lists vacation apartments and villas for rent, then simply contact the owner and book the accommodation directly.
