Q |
What happens on arrival? |
A |
10
days prior to your departure date you will recieve an information
letter. The letter will contain your own unique door entry code which
will open your front door key box, containing your villa key. We would
ask that you arrive at the villa no earlier than 4pm, to enable our
cleaning company to fully prepare the villa. We would also ask that you
depart no later than 11am on your departure day to enable our cleaning
company to prepare the villa for the next guests. |

|
Q |
Why do I have to pay a security deposit? |
A |
Accidents
do happen and we would hope that you contact the Management Company if
you should break or damage anything. When you depart the villa will be
thoroughly cleaned and a report will be submitted to our Management
Company. Your deposit will be returned within 14 days of your return,
subject to confirmation, that the villa and its contents are in the
same condition as on your arrival. Any damage, breakages, excessive use
of utilities and/or leaving the villa in such condition that warrants
extra cleaning will be made good from your security deposit. |

|
Q |
If we have any problems with the villa who do we contact? |

We
employ a Property Management Company close to Solana who look after the
day to day running of the villa. Their details will be included in the
information letter. Help and advise can also be found in the Solana
Guest Services. |

Q |
Is smoking allowed? |
A |
Smoking
is strictly prohibited anywhere within the villa and pool area, so that
we can maintain a clean smoke free environment for all our guests. May
we advise that 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. |

Q |
Are there any safety precautions? |
A |
The
villa is fitted with smoke alarms and a fire extinguisher in accordance
with Florida State Law. The Pool and Jacuzzi are surrounded by a safety
netting to prevent young children from using the pool when

unattended whilst in or around the pool. To keep your valuables safe we
have fitted a heavy duty safe in the master bedroom. |
