Based on other issues/topics that came up when renting a villa for my upcoming wedding, I would also add the following:

 

-- housekeeping: how often, daily, once a week, etc.?

 

-- are housekeeping or gardener tips included in the price? Is there a guideline mininum tip per day/per person (ours was $3 total for gardener and housekeeper)?

 

-- washer/dryer?

 

-- supplied with dishes and utensils for up to #____ people?

 

-- if there's a dining room or kitchen table, how many does it accommodate?

 

-- what is the maximum number of guests permitted on the property at once?

 

-- # televisions? satellite access?

 

-- phones? is there free long distance calling (some have vonage)?

 

-- Wi Fi/Internet access? Equipped with computers?

 

-- is there a bbq grill?

 

-- are there hammocks on site?

 

-- Does the villa come equipped with bikes, kayaks, snorkel gear, pool gear, or golf carts for local transportation?

 

That's all for now, if I come up with more, I'll make sure to add!!!
