Are youth groups allowed?

It is necessary to be over 18 years old to make a reservation. For some of our partners, it is necessary to be 21, 25 or even 30 years old to reserve one of their accommodations. Moreover, some agencies or owners refuse "youth groups". If you have any doubts about this, do not hesitate to contact us.

Is Holidu also available as an app?

You can also search and book holiday homes using Holidu on your phone. The most comfortable way is by using the free Holidu app. Here you can search for your vacation rental together with friends or family and everyone can vote for their favourites. Everyone in the group can immediately see who likes which accommodation and which rental is the most popular. The Holidu app works without any complicated registration process or log-in. Just search, vote and book! You can download the app directly here: App Store or Play Store

Do I rent the entire accommodation?

In most cases, you rent an entire holiday home or appartment that you do not have to share with other travellers or the landlord. Sometimes, outdoor areas such as the terrace or pool are shared with other guests. Some providers also give you the option of renting individual rooms in the landlord's property. This type of accommodation is called a private room. To avoid such offers being displayed to you, simply select your preferred accommodation type in the corresponding filter. If you are looking for more privacy, you can also filter for houses with private pool - this way you can be sure that you can enjoy your holiday undisturbed.

How can I see the price and the availability of a property?

Easy! To check the total price and availability, select the arrival and departure dates and the number of people at the top right of the calendar. If you receive a price, the property is available and you can click on Book Now. Here you will find more information about the total price and possible additional costs on site. Additional costs for towels/bed linen, cleaning, pets and consumption costs (electricity/water) are listed separately there. If these costs are not listed, they are already included in the price. The price always applies to the entire accommodation and is not charged per person. If it is an accommodation that can only be booked with one of our partners, you will be automatically redirected and will be provided with all the important information there. As soon as you get a price, the accommodation is bookable and free. You will receive a confirmation by email immediately after booking - please make sure to always check your spam folder as well.

Where can I find the exact address of the accommodation?

For data security reasons, the exact address of the property is only given after booking. If you did not book yet, don't worry! You can view the approximate location on the map on the details page of each property.

Can I bring my dog or other pets?

To only see pet-friendly accommodation, please activate the corresponding filter. First select your destination and select the field Pets allowed in the filter Facilities. If pets are allowed on a property, only one dog can be brought along. Our partner Bookiply generally allows 2 dogs, unless otherwise stated. Exceptions must be mentioned in the description or on the booking page. We recommend that you always enquire about this before booking, otherwise there may be cancellation charges if only one pet is allowed. You can also find special information in the property descriptions of the respective accommodation. In general, only dogs are allowed, unless otherwise mentioned in the description. Exceptions for e.g. cats, rabbits, birds or fish etc. must always be requested before booking. You can contact our customer service via this online contact form.
