It enables you to to reserve a luxury holiday villa and

your Facebook friends.× |

VillaShare has access to an encoded form of your email
address through Facebook. It then matches this encoded
email address with the email address that you provided to
the partner site at the time of booking.× |
|
| |
| |
| Q |
|
| A |
Make sure that the email address you used to book your
accommodation on the partner site is the same as your
Facebook email address. If you have not done this, log into
the Holiday Central customers area at the partner site and
change your email address to the one that you use to log
into Facebook. × |
|

| |
| Q |
|
| A |
You can invite as many friends as you like but only those who
are first to register their interest and pay their share
will be linked with the booking. So if the villa sleeps 10,
you can only accept 10, but you can invite 500! First 10 to
accept are going on holiday!× |

| |
| Q |
|
| A |
Yes. Each property has a maximum number of people that it
can accommodate. This is listed on every property on
the partner site. Further to that, you must select how
many people are in your party up to that number. The
number that you select is the maximum number of Facebook
friends who can join you.× |

villa by choosing the 'VillaShare' payment option and paying
a fraction of the price. Then selected how many of your
friends you want to invite up to the maximum capacity of the

The reservation is not complete until the full number of
guests have accepted the invitation and paid their share. If
one person can't make it, you can invite many many more, and
the first person(s) to accept will replace them. You can
invite 1,000's of friends, but only the first to respond up
the maximum capacity of the villa can be accepted.

It depends how far in advance you are booking and how many
friends you are splitting with. When you choose Villashare
the price is divided evenly by the maximum number the villa
can sleep, it's divided again if monthly payments are
chosen, one monthly payment is sufficient to secure the
villa and begin the process.

Don't worry, Villashare will select additional rentals close
by for your extra friends and display them inside the
application ready for reserving, if there is nothing
suitable available please contact customer services who will
source a rental that's suitable.

You can, but you will have to message them personally to
uninvite, then you may invite a replacement or pay that
share yourself.
