    villa booking !

    hi ,i know this might sound a bit daft but here goes anyway . have just phoned the villa owner to confirm boking and tell them payment is on the way , just feel worried now they didnt seem to go and check booking or seem that enthuseastic about their villa the impression i got from all the villa owners was that they were enthuseastic about florida and their villas. just feel a bit concerned now. have all sorts going throught my head thinking what if we get there and no were to stay ! they have said that they will send me info pack week before ? is this noraml practise ?
    i know i might be worrying unnecessarliy but this is first time and wedding so want everything to go alright !

    If you booked a villa from one of our sites, then there should be nothing to worry about. Feel free to email me at info@orlandovillas.com with the owners name / villa ref number then we can check it out for you.

    Sending the directions a week before travel is not too unusual. Personally I tend to send the information out around 10-14 days prior. Some owners send the information out as soon as they receive the balance payemnt.

    Hi Daisy
    Don't worry it will be fine.
    I remember so well when we rented a villa for the first time.
    I worried all the time what if the villa doesn't exsist.
    What if someone else is staying there.
    What if its a dump and I have paid all that money.
    Everything was fine when we arrived ,I thought all that worry for nothing.
    As Roger say's if you booked on this site all will be well
    Enjoy your holiday.

    Hi Daisy,

    I wouldn't worry about them going to check your booking. Most villa owners only have the one villa and so can remember booking details without checking the books. Usually by the time a guest gets round to booking we have communicated serveral times and have got to know our guests.

    Most of us are very enthuseastic about Florida and especially our villas. You might have just caught the owner in the middle of something else or at a busy moment. As has been said before if you booked a villa from this site I'm sure you have nothing to worry about except all the other planning for your trip.

    Try not to worry to much and just look forward to a wonderful time in Florida. [8D]

    Daisy, if anyone rang me right now I would find it difficult to be enthusiastic, I have a cough, a sore throat and terrible jet lag, but give me another 48 hours and I could wax lyrical to anybody!!
    I am sure it will be fine, but if you are worried ring again in a few days to check payment has arrived and you might catch them in "enthusiastic mode".

    Like everyone else says if you booked through this site you should be fine. We all have our off days as Liz suggests I would ring again another day and maybe the villa owner will be in a more "Florida" state of mind.[msnsmile2]

    I've had contact from Daisy and checked the owners out again on official records and it all tallies. I too suspect it was perhaps a bad day for them or they were caught in the middle of something else.
