Unfortunately we do not always receive advance notice of when building works will begin as they are carried out by third parties over which we have no control.

We consider internal maintenance and the use of tile cutters and small power tools not to materially affect your holiday. Any dispute between us will be governed by English Law and is subject to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the English or Scottish Courts. Climate. The applicant is hereby made aware that some places such as Florida has a tropical climate and therefore it is the home of many insects etc; all homes are treated on a regular basis to repel such unwanted visitors but inevitably they occasionally will find there way inside properties. They are attracted by food particles and spillages. Keep any food and drink items in the fridges and to clean any food leftovers and used utensils away immediately.This in particular applies to outside eating areas. Pests are best eradicated by spraying with an appropriate product. Pool/Spa heat is optional and must be requested at the time of the reservation. The cost varies with the size of the pool, management charges and type of heating system. You will be advised of such optional costs at the time of enquiring. Most but not all villas have heatable pools. We cannot guarantee the temperature of the pools due to many factors. Electrical pool heaters will generally heat the pool on average 10 to 15 degrees warmer than the average daily temperature. Most pool heaters, have a thermostat that will automatically switch the pool heating off if the outside temperature drops below 55 degrees. There will be no refunds unless when within 24 hours of the weather falls below the desired temperatures, the client requests a full refund from the management company. If your request this, the pool heating will be switched off and you will receive a refund for the remaining period. Once switched off it will stay off for the remainder of your holiday.. However, if they you to leave the heating on during inclement weather no refund can or will be issued. Spa heat. When booking a home with a spa it may or may not have a separate heater operating the spa which will allow you to control the spa heat independently from the pool. If it has then the charges are higher. If it does not have a separate heater then the price will be for pool heat only and the spa will heat to the same temperature as the pool. All are optional charges and you will be advised at the time of booking. Any air conditioning controls must not be tampered with as they are pre set. The air-conditioning will only lower the room temperature up to 10 degrees lower than the outside temperature. It cannot do more than this. If you set the system to a temperature lower than this it will freeze and break. As with the U.K., in the event of a breakdown engineers do have a specified call out pattern and it may take up to seven days before a visit can be arranged or a part ordered. MHR will not pay compensation due to the failure of any appliance within this timeframe, but will of course assist you to the best of our ability. In reality the time scale is within 2 working days and the air-conditioning does not breakdown unless it is altered by guests. If the villa has a bbq the guests is responsible for leaving it clean and paying for fuel. CLEAN FEESMany homes have a clean fee, depending on the home size. This will be included in the price quoted if applicable.CHANGES BY YOUIf, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your arrangements in any way, we will do our utmost to make these changes, provided that written notification from the lead name on the booking is received. Any changes are subject to a minimum charge of $50. CHANGES BY USWe reserve the right to make changes. If we change your accommodation we will do our utmost to arrange alternative accommodation of the same standard or higher. You will be given an alternative of accepting an offer of alternative holiday accommodation from us if available, or receiving a full refund of all monies paid. In all cases, except where the change arises due to reasons of force majeure. VISAS & ENTRY REQUIREMENTS It is your responsibility to ensure that you and those for whom you are booking are in possession of valid passports and any appropriate visas. British passports must be valid for 6 months after your departure from the U.S.A. ESTA - Electronic System for Travel Authorization ESTA Approval is MANDATORY for passengers intending to enter the USA using the Visa Waiver Program from 12 January 2009. Applications may be submitted at any time prior to travel & should be made online at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/.The application process may take up to 15-20 minutes & authorisation is normally granted immediately, but may take up to 72 hours.  We recommend that passengers apply for authorisation at least 72 hours before their flight to ensure they are able to travel.  Until further notice, passengers will still need to complete the green I-94W non-immigrant visa waiver form on board the aircraft. Once granted, authorisation is valid for 2 years or until the expiry of the passport (whichever is first). It is valid for multiple entries into the USA although if the destination address or itinerary is differen from that submitted in the ESTA approval, this information may be easily updated via the ESTA website. ESTA approval is not a guarantee of admissibility into the USA - it only authorises a passenger to board a flight to the USA.  Failure to obtain travel authorisation via ESTA prior to departure may result in denied boarding of aircraft or denied entry into the USA.  Passengers entering the USA via the Visa Waiver Program must have machine readable passports & hold an onward or return ticket for a stay in the USA of no more than 90 days. Further information is available via the US Embassy's ESTA FAQ's page ESTA approval is required in addition to APIS data required for all passengers - click here for APIS information. Passengers with a resident permit (green card) or travelling on a visa issued by the US Embassy will not need to apply for ESTA authorisation as they are not travelling under the Visa Waiver Program. TRAVEL INSURANCEApplicants are strongly recommended to take out adequate travel insurance to cover cancellation, accident, illness or damage.
