Sleeps: 10 Book it: A seven-night self-catering stay at Villa Limones with Jet2Villas starts at £6,990, including flights, 22kg baggage allowance and car hire, departing from Stansted on September 2.

Highlight the value: Stag and hen do groups can get a luxury property for a good price if they’re all chipping in, and they can also save on costs by bringing their own food and drink.
Promote add-ons: Suggest clients arrange various extras when booking – you can request a private chef, for example, or look at day trips on a boat.
Book well in advance: It might sound obvious, but key advice is to book early – our most popular places sell out quickly each year, and you’ll have more choice in spring and autumn months.
Be aware of minimum stays: Lots of owners will insist on
a minimum stay of a week, particularly in the summer. If a group just wants a long weekend, they might end up paying more.
Every property is different: Be clear with the villa owner or its management company and the guest about what to expect. Some properties require consent for stag and hen party bookings – another good reason to book with a reputable specialist.
