FAQ

With Orquera Florida Investments, you have access to the constantly updated availability calendar for each of our units available for vacation rentals. There is no need to feel in a request form since you can directly choose and reserve the available dates. The availability calendar works by the number of nights.
When we receive the first payment, we send you a confirmation email with your booking dates, along with a rental agreement to be signed and sent back to us via mail or e-mail. Upon reception of the signed rental agreement, your reservation is confirmed.
The 2nd payment must be made 30 days prior to the arrival in Sarasota to complete the process, or your reservation will be cancelled.
If the booking is done less than 30 days before the arrival, you will have to pay the total amount of the rental to complete the reservation.

Unless stated otherwise on each rental unit, rental rate includes the rent, clean linen and towels, one cleaning fee (after your departure from the unit), utilities (e.g. electricity – unless stated otherwise, water), along with amenities that are specific to each unit (e.g. pool…)
Rental rates are fixed for a definite number of people. Some units can accommodate an extra person at an additional cost that is defined on the reservation page.

There is a mandatory cleaning fee for each vacation rental. The amount is listed on the rental page.
It includes the regular cleaning of the unit, towels, and sheets.
It doesn’t include the cleaning of dirty dishes (dishwasher is available), and picking up trash. Please, discard your trash in the given trash bins.

Depending on the rental unit, you may be charged a Homeowners Association application fee.
