Answers...
Before your stay
Q: Do we
offer any discounts? A: We offer discounts on
bookings over 14 nights. For long term rentals of several
months please ask us for our special offer.
Q: How far
is the home from the airport?
A: The travelling time from Orlando International Airport (MCO)
is approx. 30 minutes, as always it will depend on the time of
your arrival and the traffic.
Q: How and
where do we get our keys to the property? A: The
key is kept in a secure coded box next to the front door. The
code will be supplied before your stay.
Q: How do I
get to your home?
A: Directions to the villa will be E-Mailed to you on
completion of your booking.
Q: When we
rent this house, how do we know where the house is and how to
get there?
A: Upon payment of the full rental and security deposit,
you will be sent the full address, instructions and directions,
to the Villa, which is approximately a 30 minute drive from
Orlando International (MCO) airport.
Q: What do I
need to bring? A: Our home is fully furnished and
includes all amenities, including linens and towels. You only
need to bring clothing and personal hygiene items. We would
prefer you to bring your own beach towels for the beach or
water parks.
Q: Is the
neighbourhood safe?
A: Most certainly YES! Despite the huge numbers of tourists
arriving in the Orlando and Kissimmee area, this is a safe
neighbourhood. Of course it would be silly not to take
precautions, like keeping the home door locked when you are out
and leave. We think that you will find the Lindfields
sub-division very relaxing, trouble free, safe and secure, day
and night.
Q: What
sort of temperature can we expect?
A: Take a look at our weather page for the sunshine
state
Q: What is there
to do if it rains? A: If it rains, you
can enjoy the facilities at your home or go shopping,
the shopping malls offer an incredible choice!
Q: Is there a
minimum stay?
A: No! If stays are less than 7 nights, there is an additional
one off charge for the extra cleaning of £35 / $60. This will
be added to the rental.
Q: Is there a
maximum stay?
A: The Lindfields sub-division is "zoned" for rentals up to a
maximum of 6 months. For non-US citizens you will need to
comply with the requirements of US Immigration. UK residents
can stay for up to 90 days under the Visa Waiver Program, or
for up to 6 months with a B-2 Visa. Please visit the
US
Immigration Support website for current information.
Q: Is the
pool heated?
A: Yes. For an additional charge the pool heat will be
turned-on. Keep in mind that the pool faces west, so you'll
have sun from mid-morning on, even in the winter. Heating is
not normally needed during the months of April through October.
A pool blanket is provided and we request that this is used to
help retain the heat when the pool is not in use, this also
helps when heating the pool.
Q: If we
need the pool heated after we arrive, can it be turned
on?
A: The management company
will turn the pool heating on and collect the payment from
you.
Q: How deep
is the pool?
A: The pool is approximately 3 feet (0.9m) at the shallow end
and 5½ feet (1.6m) at the deep end.
Q: Is the
pool private?
A: The pool area over looks a small pond (which may dry out in
summer months) and to a nature reserve so is quite private.

During your
stayQ: What
happens if we have any problems or questions during our
stay?
A: We have a local management
company on call 24/7 to take care of you. Their contact
information is kept in a folder in the kitchen, along with
other useful local information.
Q: Do you supply towels for the
home? A: We supply
both hand and bath towels for both bathrooms. We also supply
pool towels for the pool area, enough for ten people.
Q: What happens if we damage or break
something? A: We
understand that accidents do happen. Before each guest arrives,
our management company will inspect our home and have an
inventory and list of information regarding your rental home.
If you break something, we expect you to report it to the
management company, so
they can resolve the problem during your stay. If you do not
report this, and our cleaning personnel discover damage after
you leave, we may then have to use your security deposit
to pay for this damage. We ask you to be honest and report any
damage to our management company. Depending on what the damage
is, you may not be charged.
Q: Who looks after the property and pool
etc? A: The
property is maintained by our management company. During your
stay, don't be alarmed if someone calls to clean the pool or
cut the grass etc. If there is a problem, their telephone
number is in the folder provided.
Q: Are there any supermarkets
nearby? A: There is
a Publix supermarket about 1 mile drive from the entrance of
Lindfields. There is a large supermarket at Formosa
Gardens which is a little more expensive than the Publix. Going
west on Highway 192, then north on Interstate 27 you will find
a Walmart hypermarket, about 3 miles away. Please visit our
supermarkets page.
Q: What should we do if we are
lost?
A: If you are lost the best thing to do is find the nearest
petrol station and ask for directions.
Q: How will we pay for the pool heating
if the pool is switched on after we arrive?
A: If your stay is less than 7 days, we will take the cost out
of your security deposit. More than 7 days you will have to pay
the management company
the total amount.

After your stay
Q: What
do we do with the keys to the home at the end of our
vacation? A: Please replace the key in the steel
box by the front door and lock it.
