Hi folks..

Looking for a holiday rental in Mojacar Playa for the last 2 weeks of September.....all being well..

Preferably 2 bedroom with communal pool and within walking distance of Playa/ restaurants etc. 

Would rather not pay Air bnb a couple of hundred quid for bugger all. Cheers..Davy.

Oh...i must have picked it up wrong. I looked at a villa on Air bnb for September and it states that their fee was over 200€ on a booking of around a thousand. I have never booked through them b4 as i usually book a package. Thanks for your reply. Cheers..

Air bnb will not divulge what percentage they take, it varies 'according to the algorithm'. The price listed on adverts is what the owner gets, the ultimate total price is only visible just before payment, sometimes very much higher, sometimes not. All money is retained by airbnb, but only given  to hosts two days  after guests' arrival. Airbnb unilaterally returned all deposits at the beginning of the lockdown, regardless of prior agreement, leaving many hosts in debt.  .

What do forum users recommend is the best way to rent  holiday home, to be fair to owners, renters and agencies?
