Bugs
Guests are also reminded that Florida has a tropical climate and is therefore a home to many, many insects, etc. Our home is treated on a regular basis to repel such unwanted visitors, but inevitably they will occasionally find their way into the property. They are best dealt with by spraying with an appropriate product. The problem can be greatly reduced if food and/or crumbs are not left on worktops, tables, and floors and/or in the pool area and if any spills are cleaned up immediately.
It is also important to remember to close all windows and doors whenever possible, both to keep bugs out and to help the air conditioning system to function properly. This also helps keep running costs down.
N.B. Guests are strongly encouraged to report even the most minor of issues to our managers at "Dennis Home Care"( our local Management) when staying at the house (e.g. low batteries in the smoke detectors, non-functioning light bulbs, any sign of bugs, etc.). Tel 863-421-0905

However, neither the owner nor the management company can be held responsible if for reasons beyond their control, heating cannot be restored promptly. If it is not possible to have a repair done on time, then a refund will be made to the guest for the time that the pool heater was inoperable, but without interest and/or other compensation or liability for loss.

Know before you Go.
Most vacations will go smoothly and guests will come and go without any issues and write a wonderful review. However, even with the most organized of properties, things can go wrong and guests can get upset and frustrated if things do not go their way. After all, this is a vacation they have worked hard for.Those expectations can also lead them to make demands for refunds or compensation, perhaps that are not warranted.
This is designed to avert any such situations.
Left Property
Please check every drawer and cupboard carefully before you depart to ensure you have all your belongings. Don’t forget to look under the beds. If you get home and find you have left something behind, call or email to let us know. We will package the item/items up and let you know the cost of sending them so you can decide if you wish to have them returned. Unless you wish them sent urgently, we will wait until we are scheduled to visit the post office, so you are not charged for our caretaker’s time and mileage to make a special trip.
We will either deduct the cost from your damage deposit or ask for a PayPal payment prior to dispatching the package.
Check out & damage deposit
We have left a departure check list and ask that you follow it and leave the property in a neat and tidy condition. We don’t ask our cleaning team to wash dishes, move large items of furniture around, so request that you load the dishwasher and clear away all dirty dishes, return all furniture to its original location . We don’t like to make claims on the damage deposit but if our cleaning staff has to spend additional time above and beyond their allocated hours, to make the property ready for our next guests, we will charge for the additional time.
Complaints or problems during occupation;
It is important to note that any complaints are to be made to the local management company (contact details are supplied with booking and are available in home) immediately upon occurrence so they can be dealt with in a timely manner and during the term of occupancy including but not limited to, issues of cleanliness and equipment malfunction . Complaints made after the term of occupancy will not be entertained.
Failure of essential and non-essential appliances and facilities:
Things occasionally break down and often this is beyond our control. In the height of a heatwave, the fridge or air conditioning packs up; the TV breaks down just before the big match or the hot tub stops heating. Of course, this only happens in the evening or at weekends when there is no-one to call out so you will have some disappointment and frustration.
Please let our management team know immediately if there is any equipment that is not operating correctly. We will make every reasonable effort to have repairs made as soon as possible; however, there may be limited service contractors in our areas, particularly on evenings or weekends. If a breakdown should occur to fundamental elements such as water systems, plumbing and electrical systems, and major appliances such as stove or refrigerator, every effort will be made to repair or replace, in a timely manner. No reduction of rent, rebate, or refund will be issued for a mechanical failure of essential or non essential appliances including but not limited to air conditioning, dishwasher, washer, dryer, entertainment systems,internet connection, wifi or hot tub or solar pool heat.
Complaints in relation the management company and the service they provide, should be made directly to the home owners at
