Re: Strictness of no-children-under-8 policy?

I just had a villa rep tell me that wasn't an option with a certain villa I liked into. But a couple others said I could, so I think it just depends on the villa, owners and management. Wouldn't hurt to ask.

Re: Interior bedroom villa search

You can always ask to sign a waiver to have children of whatever age at a particular villa. When we rented Bay Rum Breeze I signed a waiver stating that the owner wasn't responsible if something should happen to our toddler. Often times the restrictions are because of the pool and/or steep drop-off...

Re: Interior bedroom villa search

Alta Vista on Bordeaux Mountain looks really nice (new) and it sounds like the 3 BR are all accessed from the interior (while the master also has an exterior entrance.) http://www.destinationstjohn.com/home.php/47/Alta%20Vista Looks very reasonably priced for a nice villa with pool and hot tub. Alt...

Re: Interior bedroom villa search

Re: villa review Fun and Contentment

Thanks for this review! Do you happen to remember if there was a pullout couch or anything to that nature in any of the rooms? From the photos it didn't look like the kings could be made into twins either. Thanks!
