While you are happy to have time for an extended vacation this year, the idea of living in a hotel for a couple of weeks is not exactly what you have in mind. One possible solution is to lease a villa for the duration of your time away from home. If you opt for this approach, make sure to secure a few additional services in advance.
Since the idea is to rest and relax, it pays to make sure the owner provides a staff who can take care of the basic cleaning and maintenance. In addition, you will likely want someone who can prepare meals for the duration of your stay. This will ensure that there is always plenty of food on hand, and you can decide whether you want to eat out or stay in and enjoy some good home cooking.
You also want to make sure the rental fee includes other amenities, such as providing lawn care and utilities for the duration of your stay. While these are usually included, don't assume that these expenses are covered until you see them mentioned in the terms and conditions of the rental agreement. Doing so will help to avoid any awkward situations during or after your stay, and ensure that you and the owner remain on good terms. This is very important, especially if you enjoyed the stay. After all, there is always the chance that you may want to come back next year and enjoy a little more pampering at the hands of the efficient staff.
