Owners Direct specialises in advertising privately owned holiday accommodation direct from the owner. We have advertised holiday properties since 1997 and on our web site you will find over 50,000 villas, apartments, chalets, farmhouses and cottages - all types of holiday accommodation in countries throughout the world. Properties can be rented for variable stays depending on the Owner - from a weekend break through to a long term let. We have seen enormous growth in recent years and are delighted to report that, we yet again feature in top 10 for Best Villa Rental Companies category in the Conde Nast Readers Travel Awards. In August 2007 Owners Direct became part of HomeAway Inc. which owns the largest holiday websites in the US and Europe. We continue to operate as a separate brand from our offices in London.
