Testimonials
We take pride in the quality of service which The Hideaways Club delivers to its Members and we’re confident that you’ll be surprised and enchanted by what you find at every one of your beautiful homes.
But why not hear it from other Members just like you? People who want the same things out of a luxury holiday and have the same priorities when it comes to property investment.
"I really appreciated the villa both from a property investment perspective and also the luxury facilities - it ticked all the boxes on both counts.
The concierge services were first class and greatly added to the enjoyment of our holiday - you'll miss out if you don't try Lori's superb cooking!
The fractional ownership concept offers the best of both worlds - diversity of choice without the hassle of looking after an overseas property.
We're already booked on our next Hideaways Club visit and are eagerly looking forward to it"
Mark Harrison after visiting La Retraite, South of France
"We had an amazing time – we were absolutely blown away by Quinta Algarvia, it is stunning and far exceeded our expectations. The rooms were beautiful and we couldn't have asked for more, and whilst the interior design was very stylish, it was also practical and I didn't feel I was on egg shells with the children.
The villa was cleaned beautifully everyday and Nicole, the Local Concierge was very efficient. The children loved the swimming pool and we hired bicycles for the week – the area was great for cycling. The boys particularly enjoyed the lego and the reading books, and it was great to have buckets and spades, and lots of pool toys provided. It was fantastic to have a heated pool and the gym was an added surprise and got good use – excellent!
Clive, my husband, spearheaded joining the Club. I was less convinced, but having visited Quinta Algarvia, I am now totally excited by the concept and looking forward to visiting Gran Vista and La Retraite, the other homes we have booked this year."
Rachel Beagles, UK
"Our first Hideaways Club holiday was a resounding success. The property was outstanding and the people far beyond expectations. We joined The Hideaways Club because we wanted the luxury we enjoyed at home when we travelled – we seem to have found homes from home!"
David Currie, UK - after staying at Dar Lain - Morocco
"What we really like is the consistent high quality and that everything is new. Plus the concierge service that takes away all logistical stress. One feels relaxed and really as if at home as soon as one arrives in any of the great locations."
Wolfgang Zürcher, Switzerland - after staying at La Retraite - South of France
"I have enjoyed the excitement of holidaying in new locations while knowing that the villas would have the 'Hideaways' stamp of luxury. Our Club membership has added personal involvement with each property which we have both enjoyed.
The admin and support from both the London HQ and the Local Concierge services has been highly effective, friendly, supportive but non-intrusive and has saved valuable time while getting to know new locations."
Wendy Smith, UK
"The whole family felt as if we were in our own home, stylishly decorated and equipped with all luxuries. All of that with the advantage of not having to worry about maintenance but still being able to access a whole portfolio of homes."
Andreas Krysl, Germany - after his first trip to Gran Vista - Majorca
"Flexibility is the main thing, the Club organises everything exactly as we want our holiday to be."
Stefanie Tegelaars, UK - after visiting La Pleta - Majorca
"I've now visited three 'Hideaways' properties which have been beautifully presented to a high standard, each having its own individuality which has made each experience completely different and highly enjoyable in its distinctive way."
Nigel Smith, UK
"Bouchra (the housekeeper) is one of those people you just want to pick up and take home with you. Thanks to her, I, as a mother of three, truly had a holiday. Nothing was too much trouble."
Liz Currie, UK - after visiting Dar Lain - Morocco
"I wanted to ask for the interior design company that decorated the villa...it looks so beautiful and there are some wonderful choices that I would love to use myself."
Sara Pepper, UK - after staying at Podere Le Sensaie - Tuscany
"Gran Vista was our second stay at a 'Hideaways' villa and lived up to our expectations. While having a similar ambience to La Retraite, it was more rural and one of the most enjoyable features was the garden with its numerous terraces and pool area. After excursions to shops, markets and beaches, it provided a truly tranquil retreat."
Wendy Smith, UK - after staying at Gran Vista - Majorca
"The consistency of quality and style builds the brand for us. We are already feeling confident and excited about our next trip. This is exactly how we hoped this concept would work out."
Liz Currie, UK
"As an ex-organiser of major international sporting events I know that attention to detail is paramount in making or breaking the customer experience.
With the Hideaways Club from the moment you book the concierge team swings into action and they ensure your stay is completely hassle free. The villas can't be faulted and with an expanding portfolio of properties as the concept catches on we look forward to many more years of Hideaway holiday experiences around the world."
Rod Alexander, UK
"Dar Lain in Morocco was our first Hideaway experience. Off the beaten track it was a true hideaway in every sense. The staff and the concierge were exceptional. The villa was fabulous and very tastefully decorated. We hope to go back there again."
Dr and Mrs Rajagopal after visiting Podere Le Sensaie, Tuscany
"The service was excellent, we couldn’t have asked for anything better and we are convinced that we have chosen the right Club to become a Member of – Thank you!"
Tina and Arvid Tage after visiting Quinta Algarvia, Portugal
"Podere Le Sensaie, in Tuscany was a fantastic break with our friends who joined us from India. The scenery and location was fabulous and the standard of the property outstanding. The tranquil and peaceful setting has convinced us to go back in the future. The local conceirge was very helpful especially planning our trips and when it meant communicating in Italian, which was quite challenging for all of us!"
Dr and Mrs Rajagopal, UK
"Luxurious and relaxing – we felt at home the minute we arrived. Fabulous location – a true hideaway. Can’t wait to go back!"
Liz Currie, after staying at Podere le Sensaie, Tuscany
"The Club really is a great holiday and investment concept. So far, as a family, we have enjoyed holidays at Gran Vista, La Pleta and Chalet Gingembre, and we are really looking forward to staying at Villa Dorada and Quinta Algarvia, in the Summer.
The UK Concierge and the Local Concierges have been great - they organise everything for us and we now have the comfort of knowing that all the properties have been well chosen and are always presented to a very high standard.
The icing on the cake is that we own a share in the whole property portfolio and that we will benefit from any increase in its value, without having to worry about any unforeseen costs involved in looking after the properties because the Club takes care of this."
Hans Kaellenius, after staying at La Pleta and Gran Vista, Majorca and Chalet Gingembre, Switzerland
"What makes La Pleta so special is the amazing views over the surrounding countryside. Sitting watching the sunset from the terrace was one of the highlights of our stay.
The villa really is a home from home. It's amazingly well kitted out with all the toys, games books and dvds that our children love.
Matti the local concierge is fantastic. She is a fabulous cook, a source of extensive local knowledge and as a mother of 2 young children (5 months and 2 ˝ years) I truly appreciated all the extra services The Hideaways Club provide to help make it a proper rest for all of us."
Julia Stockil, after visiting La Pleta
"I have now stayed at Villa Dorada and Quinta Algarvia and I simply could not have been happier with the properties and in both instances my expectations have been exceeded. For me, however, the Concierge Service is what makes it all so special and relaxing. I'm looking forward to trying a new destination with great anticipation."
David Giampaolo, UK
"Having visited three properties - La Retraite, Dar Hasnaa and Gran Vista - I could not be more impressed by the quality of the product and service at each of them. I have been with friends and family and everyone has been blown away by The Hideaways Club experience. I am already looking forward to my next holiday!"
Jason Katz, UK
"We are delighted to have joined. As well as a good investment, we feel that for holidays going forward, we will be assured of high quality accommodation and an excellent concierge service. Holidays are few and far between, so putting this risk behind us is fantastic. Our experiences so far have been first class."
