Creator's Key Takeaways

Villas are all about space and communal space for whether it's two people or a group of people.

I always start with how do you picture yourself, how what do you picture yourself doing on the trip.

Don't be scared, there's no magical or mystical garden to work with the company, they make it easy.

Go bigger, just because invariably there's you know oh can I bring my best friend.
