Advantages And Disadvantages Of Florida Villas

But just as it is with most other thing in life, the option of holiday villas comes with both advantages and disadvantages.

The first advantage that people tend to think off when considering Florida villas is the fact that they will have a greater degree of privacy and freedom in a villa as opposed to a hotel room. Plus the fact that you can very easily choose from a small two person cottage to considerably larger ones, is a great extra.

The next advantage is that a villa will come equipped with all the appliances and features that you already have in your home. So you'll usually have access to broadband Internet, TV, DVD player as well as a fully equipped kitchen. Now these would be great on their own, but depending on the particular villa you're looking for, you can also get a private pool, Jacuzzi and outdoor barbecue. So you're getting all the comforts of home, with a couple more thrown in to make your holiday something truly special.

When it comes down to cost, you will usually come out much better by renting a villa, because you will be definitely getting more bang for your buck, in regards to space and privacy, but it also means that you don't have to spend as much money on eating out as you would while staying at a hotel.

Florida villas can make you feel as relaxed and comfortable as if you were at home, and that is something that hotels can't do very often.
Of course there are some disadvantages to renting a villa in certain situations. For instance, if you have small children and toddlers, the pool area could be a real danger. Also in some cases villas don't offer linens or towels and this means that you have to bring them yourself, or buy them locally, either option being a drain on your finances.

One important characteristic that you have to pay close attention to when considering renting Florida villas, is to make sure that you're renting a place that is situated close to restaurants or shopping areas as you won't want to waste time during your holiday having to drive back and forth thus diminishing the savings that you made by not going to a hotel.

Another disadvantage would be the fact that not all holiday villas have a cleaning staff during your stay, so you'd be responsible for keeping the place as clean as you want it to be, just like at home.

In conclusion, there are some definite benefits to renting Florida villas, but there are some relative downsides as well, the best thing you can do is to be well informed about both in order to make the correct decision.
