*** Frequently Asked Questions***

Lets answer some of them….!

1. What is the minimum stay.

Well during the High/Peak season, there is a minimum 7 night stay and rest of the year our guests can enjoy a 3 night minimum stay. Have a look at the Aqorpions Villa description page for more details.

2. What happens after I Book my dates online.

We will review the request, send you the confirmation, and Villa Agreement, Once you agree to proceed,. We will then request for the reservation deposit.

3. I like The Villa, want to rent it, what next.

That's great ! Just go to the booking page, pick your dates and we can approve your stay , you could also send us your request from the contact page and above all, give us a call we are just a call away.

4. Why does the Villa rent form Sat to Sat.

We have found that most of the people find it tough to leave their jobs early on Friday and make it to the Villa, same if you check-in on Sunday one has already lost a sat before the vacation begins. So I guess most of the guests prefer Saturday.

5. Can I just rent for a Day or a Weekend.

In one word... No. ...between overheads, inspections and housekeeping, it is too much of an effort to manage the villa like a hotel….usually guests prefer at least 3 nights to enjoy and relax. We don’t mind if you pay for 3 nights and stay 2….!

6. What are the check in and check out times.

Check in is at 4:30 PM, Check out at 11:00 AM.

7. Can we request for an early Check in or late check out

Yes, we can definitely accommodate when there is no other booking before or after your group. Usually in the peak/high season when there are back to back bookings the housekeeping and inspections take a lot of time. Keeping the entire villa up to a certain standard takes time and labor and its really hard to accommodate those requests. We do understand and accommodate where we can, so please feel free to contact.

8. Is the Property Video Monitored.

Yes, we do monitor. The Exterior premises is under video surveillance for safety and security.

9. What is the location of Aqorpions Villa.

The Villa is on the Famous Dorcas bay road, you can look us up on Google Maps. Once you have a confirmed reservation you will get the exact location.

10. Can I bring my pets.

NO. We do understand people love their pets and it’s a challenge to stay without them, I guess we have to be more considering, to the guests who might be allergic to pets.

11. Can some of us Smoke with Windows Open.

NO. The Villa is a Smoke Free Place, you can smoke outside as long as you promise to take care of the butts.

12. Who will provide me the keys.

Once you have the confirmed reservation all the details will be provided to you before check in. The villa has a lock box that carries the Key.

13. Is there Internet or Phone at the Villa...! Will my cell phone work

There is WiFi…. the password will be provided to you before check in. These days everyone uses cell phones so we don’t provide any phone service. People use cell phones and depending on the Cell phone tower location, and your phone carrier your phone signal can vary. As its cottage country, so please expect accordingly most of our guests prefer to stay away from phones, as that’s what Vacation is for Some

14. What Do I need to carry with me to the Villa

Bring your Linens and Towels unless you have requested us to provide. ...(There is a nominal fee) We do not provide food so might be a good idea to carry that…and BYOB….lol don’t forget that. We provide all kitchenware cookware and tableware…

We have it all set, just connect the BBQ to the main line and you are ready to Roast....!

18. Do I carry my own fire wood.

Local bylaws dictate, that you buy the firewood locally, instead of bringing from your home town. So there are a few places where you can pick Firewood on HWY 6 while you drive up to the Villa. If you miss them …just Stop by Roxy’s place to refuel your car or pick firewood. Its on HWY 6 just before you turn left on Dorcas Bay Road.

46. Do we get to Enjoy the beautiful Dock in the winter months too

Beautiful things are short lived...we all agree Well, the Dock usually comes out of the water after the Thanksgiving and goes back in the water before the Victoria Day long weekend. ...I wish I could keep all winter in the Ice ...in fact we did try once but had few damages and decided not to Fight with Mother nature.

47. When do we get to see the next year prices

Usually by the end of November we update the rates, as most of the guests start planning their next vacation.

48. Can we do outside Fires

Well during the summer times Local Bylaws would dictate if Fire is permitted in the area. During High Risk there is a TOTAL FIRE BAN....and we all have to abide by that...... the Low Risk time yes you can as long as the fire is watched and put off properly ...no Fire is permitted after 11 PM. We will have a notice up in the House when there is a BAN Please follow that and you will be informed before check-in. We all want a safe neighborhood.

49. We love to play Outdoor Music and Party

Okay now we need watch as long as the Music is reasonable and doesn't disturb our neighbors we are fine ...You cannot play loud music outdoor period Recently our neighbors have raised concerns ...We have to respect others peace.

50. I still have a Question….lol
