Questions before booking a holiday home in Portugal
A holiday-home description should be checked against your dates and practical needs. Use a comparison sheet so appealing images do not obscure important conditions.
Work through the checklist
Record the exact location, occupancy and total price for your stay. Ask about deposits, cleaning, taxes and any local charges.
Confirm the facilities you need, including cooking, heating or cooling, accessibility and transport. Ask which areas or amenities are shared.
Read cancellation, arrival and problem-reporting arrangements. Verify the provider and current terms through an appropriate independent route before payment.
