We welcome all guests without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status. Our commitment to inclusivity and equality ensures a welcoming and respectful environment for everyone.
Renter Requirements: - The primary renter must adhere to the age requirements as advertised on the booking platform at the time of booking. - The primary renter (named Guest) is responsible for all communications regarding the reservation, cancellation, and damage policies, and must by law be present the entirety of the stay. Other guests (invitees) are not party to these discussions.
Property Damage Protection Policy: - Damages must be reported to the property owner within 12 hours of occurrence to be covered by the Property Damage Waiver. All reservations are covered up to $1,500 in damage (read the Waivo disclaimer at the end of this document for more information). Please note: this is NOT trip insurance. All guests and travelers are advised to purchase a trip insurance policy.

Damages: - Immediate reporting of damages to the property during your stay is required. Photo and video documentation is provided to the property management company before and after each reservation to ensure fairness and honesty. - Guests are liable for repair/replacement costs exceeding deposit or Property Damage Waiver Fee.
Eviction Policy: - Unlawful activities, damage to the property, excessive noise, or breach of agreement terms can lead to eviction without refund or deposit return. Additional charges may apply for damages discovered post-eviction.

The management may enter the property for maintenance or inspection. After-hours emergencies should be reported via our business line.
Housekeeping/Cleaning: Report any cleaning issues or missing linens upon check-in, or within 2 hours of arrival. The home comes equipped with essentials for a starter pack; replenishing supplies is the guest's responsibility. Promptly report any missing items in the property as soon as they are noticed, rather than waiting until the end of the stay. Failure to inform us in a timely manner is considered negligence on the part of the guest. Prompt reporting allows us to address and rectify any issues quickly, ensuring a pleasant and comfortable stay for all guests.
Cancellation Policy: The cancellation policy for your booking is determined by the platform through which you made your reservation. To provide you with peace of mind, we strongly recommend purchasing a separate trip insurance policy. This ensures coverage in the event that unforeseen circumstances require you to cancel your stay. Please review the specific cancellation policy on your booking platform for detailed information and remember that we uphold the cancellation policy in place at the time of booking.

Abusive, threatening, harassing, violent, hostile, or inappropriate language towards our staff, servicers, vendors, or other guests is not tolerated under any circumstances. Failure to adhere to this policy may result in the immediate termination of your stay without a refund and is considered a breach of the rental agreement. We are committed to providing a safe, respectful environment for all guests and staff, and we appreciate your cooperation in upholding these standards.

This policy encompasses all forms of smoking, vaping, and the use of e-cigarettes. In addition, while we recognize the legal use of medicinal marijuana, the following guidelines apply: Prohibited Areas: Smoking, vaping, and the use of e-cigarettes or medicinal marijuana are strictly forbidden inside the rental unit and on the balcony.
Legal/Medicinal Marijuana Use: The use of legal or medicinal marijuana is permitted outside the rental unit in designated areas, in compliance with local regulations. Guests are required to dispose of all marijuana residue and paraphernalia before departure. Proof of a valid prescription may be requested, in line with Florida state law.

Amazingly Clean
We were very happy with the cleanliness of this property & the amenities provided. New appliances, big tvs, comfortable mattresses and luxury towels were awesome. Back porch area was perfect for a late evening cocktail or cup of coffee. Thank you for providing an amazing property at an affordable price.
