well placed, clean and spacious villa. Close to amenities and restaurants. Kitchen a bit sparsely equipped but it was October and end of season.

Very good organised. I get all the necessary information about bookings in time. The payment is always done on a wright way.
General cleaning is lacking. But the place is beautiful. Pool is well maintained, close to Calpe town we paid 20 euros for taxi. very secure, mattress too hard

A serious security breach at Holidu.
A serious security breach at Holidu.
Two months ago, I booked a holiday apartment in Liguria, Italy. Shortly afterward, I received a message from someone who presented herself as the property owner. She sent me a formal contract and a payment request. I transferred €1,390 to her and waited for a payment confirmation for over a month. Upon investigation by the company, it turned out that I had fallen victim to a scam by fraudsters. Holidu is disowning the incident and refuses to take responsibility.
The scam happened solely because there is a security breach on their side. You have been warned—it could happen to you as well.

Dear Ronen,
We are very sorry to hear about your experience and want to emphasize that we take any attempted fraud using our name very seriously.
We always use all available resources and work closely with any victim to support them in every way possible, alongside the authorities. In cases where an issue results from our own error, we take full responsibility, as we should.
Unfortunately, we have observed some cases where fraudsters clone victims' emails, using information about an upcoming payment to request the transaction to their own accounts. This is why we always specify how, when, and by whom payments will be collected during our booking processes.
We would like to assure you that there has been no security breach at Holidu.
Please feel free to contact us directly to provide more details, as we are committed to investigating this matter thoroughly and assisting you to the best of our abilities.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to win back your trust in the future.
Best regards,
The Holidu Team

Dear Matty,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sincerely sorry for the stress and frustration caused by the last-minute cancellation of your booking, especially considering the size of your group and the impact on your children’s holiday.
We would like to clarify that the cancellation was due to unforeseen circumstances of force majeure on the property owner's part. While we did our best to assist, we deeply regret that we were unable to find a suitable alternative within such a short timeframe, forcing you to make your own arrangements at an additional cost.
Following our standard procedures for such cases, the full refund was processed along with a compensation, as we recognize the inconvenience this caused.
Furthermore, we would like to share that we are currently in the process of improving our compensation policies to better address situations like yours and ensure a more supportive experience for our guests in the future.
Best regards,
Holidu Support Team

Appalling do not use they do not take responsibility for mistakes they make and blame it on other companies they are in partnership with. Completely useless customer service. Don't waste your time or money with them

What you see on-line is what you get!
What was advertised online accurately reflected the accommodation on arrival. The roof terrace was incredible and gave us so much extra space to enjoy both the indoors and outdoors. The apartment was also perfectly equipped.
