Games room or Garage

[NickClark]

You are booking a home for your dream holiday in Florida and have a choice between a standard garage used for parking your hire car in and a converted garage which still has a normal garage door on it but has been properly converted into a state of the art games room with pool table, table football, arcade games or a home cinema with electric reclining chairs and 8' screen. This of course means that there is no indoor parking facility and you will have to park on the drive way. Which would you opt for?

Do you want our guests and potential guests, only, to vote in this poll Nick or are you happy for owners to vote too?

If I had the choice and there was not much difference in price I would go with the games room. And yes I know my place hasn't got one but come back to me about that in the New Year

I would welcome everyones opinion.

we have booked a villa without a games room, but we never used the garage anyway other than doing the washing, we could have chosen one with a games room as i dont think there is a lot of difference in price just didnt feel we needed one but when we go again which will probably be in 2 years we will look for one with a games room, alot of them are very nice!!!!

When I first heard that the big garage in the villa that we had rented in Orange Tree had been converted into a games room by the new owner, I groaned. Being used to parking in garages in the UK, I could not envisage leaving the big Dollar van parked on the drive. But when we actually arrived, I was pleased to discover that the Villa's drive was wider than the average British one and the entire neighbourhood felt qiet, safe and spacious. Contrary to my expectations, it seemed quite natural to park the car on the drive like most other people had done.

But the games room was a real pleasant surpirse. It had a pool table, the football thing and a few other games and helped greatly in keeping my niece and ourselves amused during the rest days. After all, one can swim, sunbathe and watch TV only so much and one needs to do something else while at home. I think the Games Room is a good answer.

It's interesting to see 2 people saying they would have it if it was not too different in price. To get all this state of the art equipment and to pay the same as a villa without it would seem to be a real bargain!

I wonder what else guests would like to see, for the same price?

It would be interesting to hear suggestions, as perhaps when most villas have games rooms and/or home theatres we may have to introduce even more features, whilst not raising prices beyond the means of many?

Think you would have to be mad NOT to vote for the state of the art option!
