What entertainment is provided?
The Villa is fitted with cable T.V. to the lounge ,Master Bedroom & 2nd En-Suite Bedroom . A
DVD / CD player is in the lounge. Either bring your own DVD’s or rent them from the local Blockbuster or buy them
at Walmart!
Why do the Management Company swipe our credit card for a security
deposit?
Some guests query this policy as they say they would never damage a rental property. We know this
is normally the case, but accidents do happen and we would hope that you contact the Management Company if you broke or damaged
an item. When you depart, our maids clean up the rental and submit a report and any unreported breakages will be applied against
this deposit.
Is the pool & Jacuzzi heated?
They can be. This is only really applicable between November and March when the evening temperature
can fall. If you want you pool & Jacuzzi heated, you should request this at the time of booking. If you arrive and decide
to have the pool heated then you must accept that it takes a minimum of 24 hours to heat the pool and you are invoiced from
the day it is turned on. Pool Heat - £70 per week Jacuzzi-£55 per week
The Kitchen
The kitchen is fitted with all major appliances and an adequate supply of dishes and cutlery to satisfy
the needs of the number of people in the rental.
Vacation rentals are not intended or supplied for the needs of major meals. Please don’t expect
items like baking dishes or roasting pans. As we say " just remember that mum’s on holiday too".
How do we locate/enter the property?
About 2 weeks before you depart, we will send you details of how to get to the villa from the airport.
We will also send you details of the keybox and house alarm codes.
Do we need to bring towels?
All linen and house towels are provided, but you need to bring your own beach towels.
Are there stores nearby?
At the entrance to Southern Dunes you will find a 24 hour Walmart superstore, 24 hour Pharmacy, Dollar
Tree, Winn Dixie & loads of other convenience stores.
Are there restaurants nearby?
Again, at the entrance to Southern Dunes there are a wide variety of Restaurants/Take Aways including
Pizza Hut, Taco-Bell, MacDonalds, Burger King, Steak Restaurants, Seafood Restaurants,& lots more.
Our particular local favourites are about 5 minutes away on Highway 27. They are Bob Evans,
Fish Tails and Perkins as they offer fantastic food at very reasonable rates.
What medical services are nearby?
There is a walk in Medical Centre situated next to Walmart’s car park and 5 minutes further
along ( turn right from Southern Dunes) you will find the main general hospital.
The pharmacies are great and we have found the assistants to be very helpful and knowledgeable.
Our house also has a direct link to the Fire Dept, Ambulance and Police Dept. on the alarm control
panel.
What services are provided?
The villa will be thoroughly cleaned to a high standard before you start your holiday and a supply
of linen and towels left for you. There is a full inventory carried out prior to your arrival which will ensure adequate supplies.
The pool is cleaned and serviced weekly and the gardener comes weekly too cut the grass etc.
Is there a contact for questions /enquiries?
We have a Management Company – AMI Vacation Homes - who will contact you when you arrive and
who are on hand 24 hours a day for any problems or queries.
How many people can stay in a villa?
Rental homes are governed by the State of Florida’s Dept. of Hotels. Just like hotels, there
is a maximum number of people that you are allowed in each rental. They allow 2 guests per bedroom.
What happens if the extra guests are children who can sleep on
the floor?
Florida law is very strict. Between our pool, garden and maid services we know if there are too many
guests, plus many of our neighbours are residents and will inform the Management Company accordingly.
Are pets allowed?
Sorry, we have to say no as many guests have allergies.
Is smoking allowed?
Smoking is not allowed in the house, but you may smoke on the outside deck area using the ashtrays
provided there.
In Florida, you will find that smoking is not allowed in public places such as restaurants and there
is a total smoking ban within the airports.
