    Dear All,

    I am excited and proud to tell you about the excellent and professional upgrades that have now been completed at my own private villa, Mickey’s Woodland Retreat.

    I have owned this villa since May 2005 and have spent my hard earned cash renovating, modernising and  upgrading all aspects of this truly magnificent four bed. three bathroom Contemporary modern villa.

    I had a $22000 upgrade started in November 2010, this is the last time I went out to Florida, to be there at the start of the work being carried out. The work comprised of three interior walls being removed. This makes a big open planned villa into a huge open planned area. A new modern contemporary white kitchen was installed, with a hand made black six seater breakfast bar. Ceiling down lights are now in every room, along with ceiling fans and additional lighting. A quiet Nook area as also been created for reading and lounging. The entire villa now benefits from modern floor tiling , which finishes the modern contemporary feel. Flat screen T.V’s have been added to the Master bedroom and Living room. New blinds fitted in all rooms. A complete internal redecoration as been completed, giving this a very clean look.

    On top of a top TV package, Games room, High  Speed Wireless internet connection, plus Free phone calla Internationally, makes this a complete package for your rental requirements.

    The final finish was by a well renowned Canadian artist, Susan Duxter. She has painted 32 original acrylic art works which hang in all rooms of Mickey’s Woodland Retreat, giving this a very class finish to a beautiful villa.

    I am coming out to the villa in 2 months time, for one month, and then again at Xmas for 3 weeks. So with bookings running at Ten months a year, please book early to avoid disappointment. Look at my private web site for updated photos and much more information.

    Just purchased another four Poster King Size bed! Plus a huge BBQ.
