My top 3 (can I have 3?) would be:
 
1. Agree with 4li4s and Lyndsey, lots of images. Some really good quality large images as soon as you access the site and then a gallery of more images.
2. Location - easy to see where the villa is, what surrounds it and where or how far the nearest things are (depends on target market but might include, shops, bars, restaurants, beaches, town, airport, etc.)
3. Facilities - being able to easily see what facilities the villa has what is included. Does it have its own pool or is it a shared pool, does it come with a welcome basket of essentials, does it have small children facilities like a high chair, etc? Again, depends on target market, if the villa is aimed at families then you would want to highlight all the family friendly facilities.
 
Price and availability would be my 4th one but how much you make out of that depends on your target market. If it is an expensive and exclusive villa then you don't need to highlight the price so much, just let people find out how much it costs when they go to check availability. If the villa is at the lower end of the market then you probably would want to highlight that a week costs x amount or that there are late availability offers or something.
 
I know you wanted 1 or 2 but I hope the 4 items above are useful.

Hello everyone,
 
I'm Tom and I'm a website tester or QA person rather than a web developer or designer.
 
Hope that doesn't put too many people off but I love testing websites, mobile sites and apps, in order to help make sure they are the best quality possible.
 
I specifically enjoy working alongside developers and designers, learning from them, and sharing my experience and of course the issues I've found when testing.
 
I'm here to keep abreast of web design trends, continue learning about how sites are designed or developed so that I can understand the best approaches to test them.
 
I'm also interested in particular problem areas that web designers and developers are confronted with and maybe I can share a few things that I know.
 
Thanks for reading.
 
Tom

Android in particular is pretty complicated just because there are so many variations. iOS devices are simpler, as there are only a small number of different versions of iOS, screen sizes and screen densities.
 
For Android, if you search for 'android platform versions' in Google and then click on the result that is called 'Dashboards | Android Developers' (I can't post links sorry). This gives you a breakdown for the popularity of different Android versions.
 
So your old HTC Wildfire, what version of Android is it? If it is Gingerbread (2.3.3 - 2.3.7) then nearly 40% of Android users are still on that version so you should support it. Ok, so that is probably more relevant for actual Android apps.
 
For websites, responsive ones in particular, screen sizes and screen densities are more important.
 
On that same Dashboards page, there is section giving statistics for what the breakdown is for Android screen sizes and also screen densities (because a pixel isn't a pixel on higher density screens - the same size image will be displayed smaller on a higher density screen than a lower density screen).
 
Your old HTC Wildfire has a 240 x 320 pixel display and a screen size of 3.2 inches. That puts it in the region of small screen size and small screen density. Looking at Android's statistics, that covers 9.5% of the Android population so I would continue to support it.
 
As for actual browser usage on mobile devices, whether Opera is used more than the built in Android browser I'm not sure, I don't have stats to hand for that but will do some research.
 
So for Android you have Android version, screen size, screen density and then browser type (Opera, Android, Chrome) and browser version to think about. For testing mobile apps it is even more complicated but we'll leave it at that for now.
 
I might put a blog post together going through different screen sizes and densities with example popular UK handsets if that would help?
 
Also, I can put a list of 5 or 6 handsets together that would cover all the major Android versions, screen sizes and densities if you want to cover all bases. You can then spot check your website on those handsets using Device Anywhere's free plan (unlimited 10 minute spot checks) and no, I'm not affiliated with Device Anywhere.

@webdesigner93 - thank you for the welcome.
 
@andy9l - thank you for the welcome and I certainly try to offer guidance on UX matters when web developers are having to think about deadlines, clients, strange issues that shouldn't be happening, etc. Last thing you want is a vague comment along the lines of 'it is not good for the user' when it is more beneficial to say why it is not good and how it could be improved.
