Not many people get to live like they are on a holiday in Spain: Time to relax poolside, enjoying the sun, lounging on the beach drinking a cool sangria, spending quality time with the family and enjoying amazing barbeques and fiestas with friends. The hard earned holiday is sacred.

Just re-charge your battery in relaxing Spain and forget the stress. Although for the sake of your sanity and health a mandatory yearly 2 week holiday in Spain would be perfect…….., the costs for this 2-week paradise seem really high (especially being confronted with financial distress on the news every single day).

But here is the good news: Renting a villa in Spain is not expensive at all, considering these advantages:

1a The price outside high season. The price for renting a villa in high season is highest (logically), so try to book your holiday just outside the high season. You will not believe the Low season and Mid season prices. Cheaper flights are available outside High Season.

1b The price per person per night. If you calculate the price per person per night for renting a larger villa for several families, you will see prices drop under camping price-level!

2 Privacy. Now that we have seen that the price is not worth staying home for: what do we get? The luxury of your own villa with privacy, a private pool for the kids to play in, sea views, easy walking distance to the beach, lovely garden. Yes, life can be this good.

3. The best food. Now you can go out to a restaurant or stay home and cook up a nice dish, obviously saving you a lot of money. ….Just enjoy the beer in your hand, sitting by the pool: it does not get any cheaper!

Le Festival de Cannes in French (Cannes Film Festival) is undoubtedly one of the most well known film festivals in the world. If you are a film aficionado or an aspiring filmmaker or artist, you may want to prepare your accommodation as early as now to make sure that you can still find luxury villas in Cannes. You may even wish to rent a luxury yacht or charter a private jet and arrive in style to the Festival. Besides, not all luxury apartments in Cannes are overly expensive. Renting luxury accommodation in Cannes can be surprisingly affordable, although busy during the Cannes Film Festival.

It is important to note that the festivities and series of film showing will commence on May 13 and end on May 24 this year. But even as early as now,  many people, including artists and producers from all over the world, are starting to book their accommodation which can be comprised of luxury villas and apartments in Cannes. If you are thinking of staying in an apartment of villa whilst visiting the Cannes Film Festival, now is the time to look. Besides, a great way to meet people in the film industry is by hosting your own Film Festival after-party in the apartment or villa that you will be staying in. However, you need to remember that this is a private festival and you would need an invitation to be able to enter film screenings.

With 20 films battling it our for the top award, the Palme d’Or, this years Cannes Film Festival is proving to be a big hit 2009. Some of the biggest films showing this year include Le Silence de Lorna (Lorna’s Silence) directed by Luc Dardenne and Jean-Pierre, Changeling directed by Clint Eastwood and Che directed by Steven Soderbergh. Sadly Vicky Cristina Barcelona by Woody Allen and Kung Fu Panda by Mark Osborne and John Stevenson are out or the running this year. Since Cannes is a small town, you can expect that not all international guests would stay in top hotels. Many actually prefer luxury villas in Cannes so that they can combine business with leisure.

Since the Cannes Festival is quite a popular event, it is without a doubt that during the festival there will be numerous celebrities all over the place. Apart from promoting their films, famous stars and the who’s who in Hollywood usually do business, socialize with their colleagues, and take a long break or vacation during the festival. So it’s no surprise when I say you need to book early if intending to rent a villa or apartment in Cannes around May. Cannes in defiantly the place to be if you want to meet celebrities, so renting an apartment near the centre of attraction is advised.{Why not book your luxury Cannes apartment for the Film Festival this year, or if you prefer, there are plenty of luxury villas in Cannes available so you can enjoy the Film Festival in style.}
