    I think home theatres are the next big thing, we have one at home and its fantastic!

    I notice some new villas just built at Arcadia Estates (opposite Formosa) have home theatres. We love the games rooms but would love to have both in a villa!!!

    Anyone got both???[msnsmile]

    Its something we thought about doing in the upstairs room in our main home ......its 36 ft long....and if we knock into the attic space we can add another 12ft......making one bedroom one side and one long TV room.....we have a games room in the basement with a gym and hobby room......that we hope to finish this winter....but we've been saying that for 4 years now....

    We made our dinning area in FL a tv room....when or if we move down we will kit that room out just for movie nights.....

    Lal,
    We are on Acadia and I know that one of the 5 bedrooms has a theatre and a pool table. We decided to keep the 6th bed as we didn't want guests playing pool upstairs!!!!

    What's the difference whether they play pool upstairs or downstairs?
    Do you need to re-enforce the bedroom floor or something like that?

    We thought that an enclosed area like a garage is a good/safe environment for playing pool etc. and we just felt that an open area above a staircase wasn't. Maybe we as a family are just really bad at pool

    If 'most people prefer a games room' then how is it that those villas without still get bookings?????

    A bit of a generalisation, I think!

    Sorry Ellie, I meant people who were looking for either/or between games room or theatre. I know that many visitors are not interested in either because they are out and about all day or simply enjoy the pool a lot.

    We never use the garage when in florida,we book a villa in Windsor Palms they have it all there. And if we can not get booked in there we always try for a villa with a games room. Anything to keep the kid's amused big one's and little's. [msnwink]
