WHAT IS IAVRA?

IAVRA is a unique subscription based online database of villas available for rent around the world

It is a closed Business to Business platform that gives client agents (travel agents and concierge services) access to an extensive database of rental holiday properties while providing villa central agents with direct access to a broad and largely untapped international market.

If you either: (a) directly manage/market properties for villa owners, or (b) provide services for the booking of holiday rentals for your clients, then you can gain access to and benefit from the IAVRA website. Apply now

We will only accept official and established villa agents and client agents with a proven track record of professional excellence and integrity. IAVRA's strict subscription conditions help to promote greater confidence from client agents and provide important safeguards to the end client that rents a villa through an IAVRA agent.

The basics

Villa agents upload their properties into the growing database of villas on the IAVRA platform. Once logged-in to the site, Client Agents can then search for villas tailored to the specific requirements of their clients, view and compare results at a glance, create branded selection charts and send the rental client the selected villas in elegantly designed and branded brochures. Client agents can easily access contact information for any property about which they wish to enquire, and make contact directly. Remember that we are not involved in the rental transaction and we do not take any commissions.

The Idea

How it all came about

There's no denying it, IAVRA was born out of frustration. We spent years working as Client agents with a steady flow of villa requests that we were unable to respond to in the professional and efficient way we would have wanted to. Unlike with other leisure/travel industries (namely yachting and jet chartering), the villa industry seemed to lack a certain standard practice so that pricing and commissions were rarely transparent, we could never be certain that we were dealing with the agent with direct contact to the owner and moreover we found it overly time consuming getting back to our clients with details of villas in a presentable and comprehensive format. The result? We would often turn down villa requests because not only was our return on investment in question but also we did not want to offer a service for which we had so little quality control.

Now we certainly met some great people in the industry and formed some wonderful partnerships. But our pool of trusted, professional contacts was limited and so when clients asked us for villas in an area where we didn't have any agents, we were turning down yet more business. It could take us days of trawling the internet and communicating back and forth with partners to respond to a very specific client brief such as a 4 bed villa with pool, outdoor sound system, gym and within walking distance of the beach in Croatia. How do you search for a villa with a gym efficiently on the Internet? Surely, there was a better way? It became increasingly clear that what was missing was a one-stop platform where you could do comprehensive searches for legitimate holiday properties from around the world that were represented by quality agents.

Enter IAVRA. A business to business platform that gives client agents (travel agents & concierge services) transparent and efficient access to an extensive number of global properties managed by villa agents who have direct owner contact. And for villa agents, the opportunity to have their villas marketed in a targeted way to a global pool of clients thereby increasing the number of enquiries. As an added incentive, villa agents are able to use IAVRA to supplement their own portfolio should all of their properties get booked up or a client request a villa in another location. The extra services and online tools found on the site such as branded brochures, availability calendar and reporting statistics are there to help facilitate the process from enquiry to close of sale.

There's no doubt the rental holiday market is on the up and up, with travellers clueing in to the tremendous advantages and benefits of renting a property over staying in a hotel. But holidaymakers remain dubious about quality and safeguards. With IAVRA, we think we've created a platform that will make everyone's life easier, that will help more business get done and also increase the number of happier end clients. Something we all want so that the holiday rental industry continues to grow. Give us a call to discuss more or even just to exchange stories about the industry -- we're always looking to meet new people.
