Brooklyn Travel has acquired Irish holiday villa specialists, Private Villas and Holiday Homes Direct.

It is Brooklyn Travel’s second acquisition in Ireland, after the purchase of Killiney Travel earlier this year.

Brooklyn Travel also operates Stewart Travel, Canterbury Travel and Destinology.

Private Villas will be rebranded as Villa Select, with a refreshed look and new website, villaselect.com.

Established in 1983, Villa Select offers private villas with pools across Portugal, Greece, Spain, Croatia and Cyprus.

The Holiday Homes Direct brand will continue to offer villa owners an independent platform to advertise directly to consumers in Ireland, the UK and beyond.

“Irish agents will now have access to an extensive portfolio of high-end villas from an award-winning provider,” Nevin said,
