Usually, before starting the trip, we have to plan for accommodation. According to our situation and needs, we can choose and book one of the types of accommodation. For example, if we have a family trip, we probably prefer to stay in a villa. If we want to book a hotel, we must be familiar with its different types. In this article, we intend to fully define three of the most common accommodations and provide explanations about them. So if you want to know the definitions of villa, residence and resort, stay with us until the end.
What is a villa?
If we want to have a technical definition of a villa, it is said to be a building that faces the outside from all four sides. Villas are usually built in areas with good weather; For this reason, they are built outside crowded cities and areas with natural scenery. Of course, sometimes the houses inside the cities are built as villas, in which case, they can still be called villas. In our country, villa has similar definitions to other parts of the world. Usually, houses that have an exterior view on all four sides and have a courtyard or yard are called villas. These houses generally have a gable roof, but in modern design, some villas are designed and built without a gable roof.
What are the types of villas?
There are different types of villas and they can be divided into different models. In a general category, villas are divided into two categories, modern and traditional, but if we look at them in more detail, we can expand this category. Below are some of the most common types of villas:
Modern villa: As you can guess from the name of these villas, they have a more up-to-date design and newer materials are used in their construction. Full-length glass facades are very common in these villas, and we usually see the construction of large swimming pools in their area. Also, they rarely build the roof of modern villas in the form of a gable. Modern villas can be designed and implemented as duplex or triplex.
Classic Villa: Classic villas have various styles. More traditional elements are used in the design of these villas. If the villa is built in temperate and rainy areas, it will most likely have a gable roof. In the exterior of these villas, marble or natural materials such as wood are usually used. Elements such as fireplaces, wooden stairs, etc. can be seen in their interior. Classic villas still have their own fans and are built in different places.
Summer villa: Summer villas are usually built in green areas or in gardens. These villas have a low height and in most cases, there are no stairs inside them. The roof of these villas is generally built in the form of a gable and with a low slope. They are usually made in warm areas with good weather and are used in hot seasons.
Town villa: Town villas are usually built in such a way that other villas are placed near them and sometimes their yards are connected. Town villas usually do not have a terrace and a small balcony is considered for them. Urban villas usually have a lower price compared to other types of villas, and due to their location in crowded areas, they have their own applicants.
