No we have No problem with that as long as your considerate we don't care. I imagine we need to speak to them first out of courtesy but honestly my gut tells me they won't care at all. Any advice, appreciated??

How many in this bunch ? Maybe they are all siblings.

I'm sure we will try the Nice approach first as we are new and certainly don't Want a war with neighbors. I do find it surprising people our age wouldn't be a little more considerate of others. Will keep you posted. We don't of course mind occasional parties as we plan on having also so we will see how it goes as we get go the summers etc. As they have a pool we shall see. I don't want to be nasty and do hope go get along with everyone

So one night friends gathering and enjoying the night. I would wait to see how often noise would be a factor, and how noise would travel from your lanai when you have a gathering

You can call the sheriff's office to enforce the noise ordinance. They are responsible for enforcement. You can also wait till the next day and visit the property. It may be a rental or the owners are there but enforcement is still with the sheriff's deputy to enforce if necessary.

Sorry, I disagree with you. If they have no respect than I will call the police or whatever it takes.

This is a great example of why we should try to be
considerate of others.

I have found volume of voices increases as the drinks increase.

No one wants to ruin your fun, such as when you're dining out,
but be aware other people are around you.

And don't take a baton to the dog park. Be nice, then be direct, then call whoever's in charge.

We will speak to them politelly and ask them to keep it down however I have a feeling it won't matter to them. They know they have new neighbors and don't seem to care. Other neighbors across the street mentioned to us the couple who lived here Prior go us had a problem with them. Why can't people be considerate of others. We love it here except for this situation. Help??

This situation is called kissing lanai's. Many a homeowner has sold and purchased another house due to their lack of research with the first home purchase. Only one way to solve this - get the checkbook out.

The suggestions of going over, inviting them over, etc. can often be a bad idea as the police explained to me. Let the police do their job. As to them finding out....I am sure there are others who hear the noise as it's not like your house would block it from going past. If you live with it it will just raise your anger to levels that will want to make you move. You can't be a good neighbor if you have lousy ones. And you can NOT please everyone.

Nip it in the bud.

Why would the Police discourage a polite approach?

Don't know if this helps.

3 Ways to Deal With a Noisy Neighbour - wikiHow

Basically if it bothers you so much, take notes, video tape, get everything down for proof. Do remember that the villages is unique as it is a retirement DisneyWorld. Its a place of happiness. Remember once you make it official as a complaint you will NEVER be able to do anything wrong or you may get reported.

Another thing personally I didn't like is to bring up they are lesbians. I'm Catholic and don't agree with the lifestyle (but that isn't for here), but labeling them isn't a reason they are loud to you. Straight people are loud too. Dogs and birds are loud. You don't have to agree with their lifestyle, but it doesn't mean they aren't a good person.

What if they are deaf? What if they are serial killers looking for a set up? What if you did something to them and they are pushing your buttons. maybe they just retired a year ago after working in the mean world of 12 hour days with 4 hour travel, every day, and they are showing their wild side.

Take preventive measures first, if it doesn't work, act, see if there are mediators in the villages.

I don't know, I just wanted to rant for a moment.
