Lots of good properties in interesting places at reasonable prices. However, each one could do with more info on what's in the surrounding area.

The range of properties available is great, however beware of hidden charges. Electricity is often extra (and can be expensive if you have air conditioning or a pool at the property). We had a charge... See more

Booking process was good, all seems straightforward so far. But having issues contacting office though, need to make an enquiry and the chat system never seems to be working ?

Excellent Customer Service

I was unable to complete on line so called Novasol. The customer service we spoke to was very helpful. He made the booking for us and sent an email promptly telling us the costs etc.

Very reassuring to talk to someone who had time and patience to listen to our requirement.

Problem solved smoothly

Novasol contacted me to inform us that the house we had booked was now unavailable and within the same day we had an alternative booked for the same dates and everything arranged.

***AVOID***

***AVOID***

I booked 2 accommodations with Novosol. We arrived at 1 of the accommodations fine. The 2nd accommodation did not have a key available so we requested to get this. They then cancelled both accommodations on us claiming we were not on holiday and I am now in dispute with them on getting a refund.

It seems like they make the rules up as they go....

I have even supplied them with the holiday requests for the holidays....

***Avoid at all costs

The company is not reliable

The company is not reliable. If the customer has a concern, they respond with a delay or do not respond at all. The house we stayed in had a terrible smell of dampness and mold inside, and it was also black. After the trip we received compensation in this regard and now they are demanding money for cleaning. Communication is terrible

Unprofessional host.


When booking any type of accommodation we would strongly advise do not use the host NOVASOL.
They don't get back to you when making an enquiry.
They took a £90 deposit from our account without telling us.
They hung up on the phone when trying to complain and also lied.
Thanks to them we are £500 out of pocket.
In or opinion they are a disgrace to the travel industry.

Avoid these thieves

Avoid these thieves! We booked our holiday through Novasol and paid the 150 Euro cleaning charge, which we found shocking from the get go, how do you justify 150 Euros to clean a tiny 2 bed apartment! When we arrived we took our shoes off to find after walking around the apartment our feet were black and it was like the place had a covering of dust and sand. We decided to let it slide and just enjoy the holiday until departure day when we received an email instructing us to basically clean the apartment! What did we pay the 150 Euros for?! Being the people we are, we did clean the apartment and left it cleaning than when we arrived. I have found the customer service appalling and staff to be rude and that's once you have managed to find a way to contact them! They won't even consider our complaint as we haven't sent photos!
