Supermarkets and Restaurants
We have a very large
Publix Supermarket just a two minute drive away. This store is very
well equipped to provide you with all you should need in terms of
essentials throughout your stay. Open from 8am-9pm. Within this
shopping centre, there are other amenities such as a video / DVD
store, and a bar. If you wish to do a little more shopping, about 1o
minutes drive there’s Wal-Mart. This will sell just about anything
you care to mention, and at great discount
prices.. |

Eating Out
Highway 192, just 10
mins north along US27, will provide you with just about anything you
can think of, from fast food to fine dining the closer you get to
International Drive. There are also a number of restaurants closer
to Highlands. Feel free to seek advice from our Management Company
on where to eat. |
Internet
Access
We have installed
Cable / wireless internet access at the Villa, cos if your kids are
anything like ours, they can’t survive without MSN…! Also we find a
larger number of people have to still work whilst on holiday, and
Internet is essential. We have a router, so those who are “Wireless
enabled” can happily sit by the pool (power points on pool deck), or
alternatively you can “cable-up” in the kitchen. |

Can we play Golf on
the Course…?
Highlands Reserve Golf Course is regarded
as one of the best in Florida, with a number of other great courses
close by. The Club House is just one minute away on foot, and caters
to all abilities. Club hire is available, There is also a driving
range to practice on. Green fees vary throughout the year, but for
residents (as you would be) the average cost for a round is approx
£22 including Golf Buggy.. |
Management
Team
We have a first class
Management team looking after our Villa. They take care of
everything for us from pool care and cutting the grass to ensuring
that our guests are well looked after. You will be introduced to
them shortly after your arrival (probably your first full day) as
they give you a tour of the villa, explaining how everything works,
from the dishwasher to the DVD. Their aim is to provide you with a
friendly and professional service in order to make your stay as
comfortable as possible and provide you with all the information
that you need.. |

Additional
Facilities
The Villa is equipped
with just about everything one would need. Unlike so many other
Villa Owners, we don’t charge for additional extras (other than pool
heating). We have a BBQ available for use as well as two bicycles,
and we ask guests to speak with our Management Team prior to their
use. In addition to these, I have my spare set of clubs which you’re
more than welcome to borrow, although clubs can be hired from the
clubhouse should you prefer. Other items we have which may prove
useful relate to our little guests, including a crib (travel cot)
and high chair. |
