Verified by Miki —
a 47-point inspection.
We don't list a villa until we've stayed in it. Every home on MIKI VILLAS has passed a structured on-site inspection covering photography, home systems, host response, and guest safety. If something breaks your trip, we'll make it right.
Quality checklist
A structured inspection across photography, home systems, safety, and host operations. Items are pass/fail — no averaging. One failure keeps a home off the site.
Guest guarantee
If the villa is materially not as listed on arrival — power, water, cleanliness, bedroom count — we'll rehome you within 12 hours or refund the unused portion of your stay.
How verification works
A Miki inspector visits in person, files a report, and schedules a re-visit each year. Hosts see their report and can appeal any failed item within 14 days.
