We booked the villa directly with the owners through their website - dolcettodrive.com
I must say, I would NOT recommend this villa to anyone. It claims to be able to accomodate upto 12 people comfortably - thats a joke, we struggled to get 3 people around the tiny pool area and were constantly playing chase the sun as the area was shaded for much of the day - despite claims of a South facing pool. We were just a group of 8 and found it claustrophobic.
We were awakened on a number of occasions by the next door neighbours having pool parties in the small hours with music blaring into our bedroom. The owners did little to assist with the mater suggesting we contact the loal Sherriff (Just what you want on holiday) after a quiet word, they kept it down for a few days but not altogether.
The sunbeds & covers were few and far between (3 to be precise) and were dirty and shabby.
The pictures on the website make the place look great, but the carpets were in need a a good shampooing and the furniture and facilities were well passed their sell by date.
To top off a bad holiday, it took me over 6 weeks to get my security deposit back off the owner, who prior to our arrival was very accomodating and quick to respond to any e-mails and queries only to become the Scarlet Pimpernell when I tried to contact her over my security deposit refund. The money was finally returned only after I threatened legal action!
If you are thinking of booking a Villa in Florida - don't book this one
We stayed at a villa the next road along two years prior to this from - villa-linda.com which put the one on Dolcetto Drive to shame and comes highly reccommended - even think my comments are on thei website!
