On our next visit we plan to narrow down the search for possible homes. We plan on being full-time residents and not snow birds. I've convinced Linda that we need to take a hard look at CYV vs. designer homes. Not so much for the price but for the privacy.

My question relates to something that only those that live in a CYV would know and I can't determine by a visit:

I understand that the visual privacy would be there with the fences on the side and the back (or view in the back) but does the noise from neighboring lanais raise a problem? Is it worse than a non-villa due to the closeness of the other villas? Better because of the walls? It depends on your neighbors I would assume but I'm looking for items to consider.

Thanks for your input.

Also: Is there any storage above the garage or in the house attic in a CYV?
