Long stay rentals in Thailand
10 bedroom holiday villa in Lipa Noi beach, Koh Samui, Surat Thani Province

Explore ornate temples and intricately carved caves, or visit a spiritual retreat. Enjoy the contrast between the bustling Bangkok and Pattaya and the tranquil Ko Samui and Ko Lipe.

Long stay rentals in New Zealand
4 bedroom holiday home in Waiheke Island, Auckland, North Island
New Zealand is another country people have found easy to stereotype. The landscape is iconic, but a long stay rental in the country means you can really discover New Zealand. The South Island attracts adrenaline-seekers and Queensland is ideal for city-dwellers not ready to leave urban life completely. Mountain hiking, black water rafting and abseiling are a few of the activities you can perfect on a long stay holiday. However, New Zealand also has a distinctive cafe culture, full of friendly natives: explore the bars and restaurants of Auckland and Wellington.

Long stay rentals in Greece
2 bedroom holiday home in Agios Nikolaos, Lasithi, Crete
Consider an extended rental in Greece a chance to retrace the country’s astonishing ancient culture and explore its mountainous landscape and unspoiled beaches. Learning Greek, socialising with locals and embracing cultural customs become more achievable on a long stay break in central Macedonia or Epirus. Enjoy the medieval past of Rhodes and visit the stunning island of Crete, with its rugged coastline and mouthwatering cuisine. And, of course, visit the Acropolis in Athens, the birthplace of Greek –and arguably all of western – civilisation.
