Holiday Lettings was founded in 1999 with two ambitions:
1. Make it easy for travelers to find their perfect vacation rental.
2. Get more bookings for property owners and managers.

Technology was different in 1999
Cell phones were rare and magical devices. Tablets were something you took when you had a headache.

Travel was different too
Concorde still ruled the skies and people valiantly drove to their vacations without the help of satnavs.

An internet travel business was born
We bring travelers the best selection of vacation rentals and home owners/managers the best possible marketplace for showing them off.
What started as a few rental specialists in 1999 has grown to a huge team, providing traveler and owner support in multiple languages.
In 2010 we gained the backing of Tripadvisor, the world’s largest travel site*. As our parent company, they bring a wealth of expertise to what we do.

Our owners can now show off their guest reviews and get their properties promoted on a worldwide network of 25 Tripadvisor websites surfed by 340 million travelers every month**.
On the flip side, travelers now have access to Holiday Lettings homes from more sites and can use previous guests’ reviews to help them choose their perfect vacation rental.
