What sets the price of a VI shortlet
We do not print price ranges here, because each host sets their own and prices change by date. These are the things that move the price:
| Size | A studio or 1-bedroom costs less than a 3-bedroom in the same building. |
| The building | A pool, gym, lift, parking and steady power all add to what a home can charge. |
| The view | A sea or lagoon view often costs more than a home facing the street. |
| Your dates | Hosts can set higher prices for busy days, such as holidays and December. The calendar shows each night's price. |
| How long you stay | Some hosts give a discount or free nights for longer stays. |
| Fees and deposit | A cleaning fee is added once per stay. The caution deposit comes back after you leave. |
