Check the cleaning, upkeep and local contact before booking

The guide recommends asking who handles on-site problems, requesting recent photos and checking cleaning procedures. The same questions apply to platform bookings.

Hello.

This is Kevin, the representative of ITDANG.

It's already the fourth year since I've been running the Ho Chi Minh Pool Villa and travel agency business, making me an 8-year veteran in Ho Chi Minh City. I recommend various Ho Chi Minh Pool Villas.

While consulting on Ho Chi Minh Pool Villa reservations in the past,

many people remember both 'Connect' and my company's new name, 'ITDANG'.

Are you sure about the Ho Chi Minh Pool Villa you're booking?

Does 'sure' mean you're judging based only on photos?

Are you checking the actual operator, management style, and booking conditions as well?

Accommodation rules can vary by area and type of building. For the property you plan to book, check its own guidance on operating registration and registration of guests’ stays.

Internet reservation sites introduce various villas, making it difficult to compare the condition based only on photos.

At first, it's okay.

Newly opened, new villa, new furniture.

The management quality should be checked based on the actual cleaning, facility inspection, and service response system, not the operator's nationality.

What criteria does the accommodation you are booking use for cleaning and facility management?

The biggest problem in Korean pool villas is 'cleanliness'.

It's important to check the cleanliness and facility maintenance status before booking even in Ho Chi Minh City.

If you have capital, it's not difficult to build a nice villa with popular designs and construction companies.

However, 'villa management' is a different story altogether.

The management quality should be checked based on the actual cleaning, facility inspection, and service response system, not the operator's nationality.

Many people use Airbnb as an investment, employing one housekeeper.

Even apart from having a good system, you need to check the actual cleaning results and facility inspection records.

Even though I've used Vietnamese for 8 years, I sometimes make mistakes in communication with housekeepers or staff.

Even when the Korean owners who operate pool villas in Ho Chi Minh City regularly check on their properties, look after them and train their teams,

You are facing difficulties in cleaning and management.

Check the operator's contact information, recent photos, cleaning standards, and procedures for handling issues on the platform reservation.

When we at ITDANG first opened the company called Connect,

I started as an agent company for Ho Chi Minh pool villas.

At the time of writing, the author said they knew and worked with nearly all the pool villa owners in Ho Chi Minh City and collaborated with a number of property agencies.

That shows how much knowledge and experience I have in pool villas.

However, many guests still end up being scammed after booking online, and thus rush to find us.

The reason is,

you booked after seeing very nice photos and discounts.

You get blocked by the actual condition, management status, and communication barriers.

It's such a good villa that I would go there on my own.

"If only they managed it well,"

Condition of towel management.

Quality of bedding items.

Quality of mattress.

Bathroom drains,

Bathroom tile grout,

Cheap shampoo, body wash...

As the owner of a similar pool villa, I can only feel somewhat disappointed.

'Management' is done like this.

Even a crack in the door缝隙

Bed headboard

Toilet switch

Stairwell corners

It is the basic of ITDANG's cleaning and management to inspect every corner including door gaps, bed head, toilet, switches, and stair corners.

"Basic"

Many of you will surely know this.

It is not an easy task to uphold the basics.

Even ITDANG pool villas carry out continuous education and verification to maintain management.

I, as the villa owner, personally check every time a guest leaves.

Through the director, guests are checked in every time they arrive.

Villa management staff check twice a week.

All ITDANG employees, twice a month

Together we inspect and repair the villa, replace cleaning equipment and look for better ways to clean it.

Is this level of effort really something anyone can do?
