What do I do if I want to make a booking?
Contact us and we will either send the booking forms electronically or post them. If
sent by email they will be in 'Word 97' format so you need to have at least this version
to be able to read the forms. If not we can send them as a PDF file,or post them.
What do I do when I receive the booking forms?
Please read them carefully to confirm your dates and sign both the forms ('Booking
Conditions & Responsibilities' and Tear off Slip) and return with your deposit together
with the 'Occupants of Villa' form. Once we send the forms you will have to retunr them
with the deposit payment to confrim your dates - we do get booked up quickly so advise
a quick response otherwise we will offer your dates to other guests and you may loose
your requested dates.
Do you accept credit cards?
Not at the moment as there would be an additional charge that we would have to pass
on to guests to process the transaction. A personal check will be fine either in UK
pounds or US dollars or ideally a bank transfer is quicker and secures your dates.
How much deposit do I need to Pay?
Normally £200 or $300 per week booked but at certain times we may ask more depending
on time of year and total cost.
What happens once I pay my deposit?
Once your payment has cleared we send you a confirmation receipt with final payments
details. This then confirms your dates and your final balance will be due at least 8 weeks prior to
your arrival
What information do I get when I send my final balance payment and how do I know
where the villa is located?
Once your payment is cleared we will send you a written confirmation receipt along
with directions to the villa with a map, details on how to access the villa through the
front door code, as well as further information regarding
the villa you may find useful. We'll also give you the contact details of our
management company in case you need to call them at any time prior to arrival.
What happens if we have to cancel a booking?
Refer to our 'Booking Terms' for the cancellation policy but we will endeavour to
transfer your booking over to another date at some time in the future if you have to
cancel. We strongly advise you to take out travel insurance once you have made a
booking to cover youreslves. If we have to cancel your booking for any reason we will
either offer you alternate dates or refund your payment in full
What happens with my security deposit once we leave the villa?
We wait to hear from our management company that the villa is left in good shape
and that no breakages have ocurred and the BBQ has been cleaned after use. Once
we hear from them we will return your security deposit. This normally takes about 1
week after you have left the villa.
Are phone calls free?
Yes, all local calls are free but we advise your cell/mobile phone is used outwith that.
Do you have an ironing board, washing machine and dryer?
Yes, the villa is fully equipped for all your needs with plenty of towels and linen and a
washer and dryer. No need to bring anything apart from your own clothes!
Does the pool area get the sun all day?
Yes, although if you require there is a shaded area as well. We also have a patio area
outside the pool screen for you to sunbathe or BBQ and there is a large grass area for
your children to play safely. The villa back garden is totally enclosed so you have
utmost privacy and are not overlooked by anyone - unlike a lot of other villas! We also
have pool toys for children to play with.
Is the Jacuzzi Hot Tub heat extra?
No, the hot tub is heated independantly of the pool so there is no extra charge to heat
it. This is included in your price.
When do you think we need pool heat?
We would advise guests to opt for electric pool heat from Sept - May but it really
depends on personal circumstances and how warm you like the pool to be.
How much is electric pool heat and what temperature will this heat the pool to?
Electric heat is an additional charge of £140 or $175 per week which is lower than most
other villas. We need this to cover the extra electric charge. The pool will be heated to
approx 85 degrees which is the recommended heat for an outdoor pool for leisure
swimming. Any hotter and it will burn off the chemicals used to keep the pool clean.
What do I need to do if I wish to organise tickets for the parks or theme dinners
shows and car hire?
We have a ticket agent in Orlando who would be happy to give a quote so let us know
and we can pass on contact detials and we also have a car hire link with access to all
the major suppliers at discounted prices.
Do you have anything in the villa to cater for children?
We have a selection of games and DVDs to keep children amused and a Wii games
console with a selection of fun games. We have both a lounge and den which allows
children to watch TV in one room while the adults relax watching the TV in another
room if you require. All TVs are smart enabled so can access various apps
