OTAs quietly add 15–25% commission on villa bookings. Here's how direct booking saves you money without any downside.
The commission math
Airbnb, Booking, MakeMyTrip and Agoda all add commissions in the 15–25% range. That cost either reduces the villa's margin or gets added to your rate — usually both.
Why direct is always better
Same villa, lower rate, and you're speaking to the actual owner. Refunds, early check-ins and small requests are handled faster because there's no middleman.
