gated: How do visitors get in to see you?

[Steve and Dawn]

we stayed at Southern Dunes one year and ordered a chinese to be delivered. The guy on that gate rang the villa when the chinese turned up.

At our place we have two lanes, one for deliveries and one for owners and guests. You must make the guard at the gate aware you are expecting a delivery otherwise they won't let them in. If you are expecting guests you can give them a code that they can use at the gate that rings your phone. If you turn your TV to ch99 you can see who it is, press a code and the barrier lifts for them. The gate is guarded 24/7/365.

Interesting. Did this 'Chinese' come as a tourist with a VWS or is he/she going to stay and work in the US?

Ok, thank you very much for the information. I will not give out any codes, I promise, for our family's safety as much as for the owner's property!

There are no codes to give out on Emerald Island. The gates are manned 24/7 and the guard would need informing of any visitor you are expecting.They note licence tags and other details on entry unless you have an entry pass displayed on your windsheild you will be stopped and questioned.

This is just the same with Terra Verde, no big drama getting in or out.[msnwink][msnwink][msnwink][msnwink]

thats why we liked it!![msnwink]

Owners on Emerald Island and Im sure on Tere Verde can request an owners tag at the clubhouse. Saves having a big danggley thing in the windscreen.
Soon coming up for transition at EI and who knows owners will be able to utilise the right hand entrance save queuing.[msnwink]

In Feb we were given a sticker not "a big danggely thing" to stick in the windscreen, Bob. Which was much better.
Also we used the right hand lane a few times to get round new guests on Terra Verde.
Onwards and upwards as they say[msnwink][msnwink][msnwink][msnwink]

On our community,there are 2 numbers,one for 24hour access and one for daytime access for work people which can be changed regular.
At the gate is also an intercom which is linked to your phone so when your takeaway arrives the delivery person presses your door number into the gate,your phone rings and you open the gate for him.
