HOUSE RULES


Guests & Reservations
The minimum booking age is 25. The person who books the reservation must remain at the property for the entire stay and is legally responsible for all members of their group. Only guests listed on the reservation may stay overnight. Visitors who are not part of the reservation must be approved in advance due to liability and local fire code regulations. To keep the home safe, properly insured, and compliant with our private pool and leased LSV/golf cart requirements, we require the full names and ages of all overnight guests before check-in. The primary renter must be 25+ and present for the full stay.

A valid government-issued photo ID may be requested from the primary renter and/or adult guests when needed for reservation verification, insurance/liability, safety, age verification, or LSV lease compliance. For everyone’s privacy, IDs are only requested through the booking platform’s message thread — never by text, email, or outside messaging apps. By booking and staying at the property, the reserving guest acknowledges and agrees that they and their group must comply with all house rules and any applicable safety rules, rental terms, and liability waivers associated with the property and its amenities. Failure to follow these policies may result in cancellation of the reservation without refund.

Arrival & Property Condition
Please notify us within two hours of arrival if there are any cleaning or maintenance concerns so we have the opportunity to correct them. We strive to provide a five-star experience for every guest. The property is documented between stays to ensure it remains clean and well maintained. Reports made after the initial arrival window may not be eligible for refund consideration.

No Parties or Events
Parties, events, large gatherings, bachelor or bachelorette parties, and similar activities are strictly prohibited. The home is intended for families and small groups only. Unauthorized gatherings may result in immediate termination of the reservation without refund, along with additional cleaning, damage, or disturbance fees if applicable.

Quiet Hours
Quiet hours are from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM. Please respect the neighbors and keep outdoor noise to a minimum during these hours. Excessive noise complaints may result in cancellation of the reservation and possible local fines, which may be the responsibility of the guest.

Smoking, Vaping, and Illegal Substances
Smoking or vaping of any kind is not allowed anywhere on the property, including inside the home, on porches, or near open doors and windows. Evidence of smoking will result in a $500 odor-remediation and cleaning fee. Illegal drugs or unlawful activity are strictly prohibited and will result in immediate termination of the stay without refund.

Security Devices
For safety and property protection, the property has exterior cameras at the front entrance and backyard/pool area, along with a noise/smoke monitoring device. There are no cameras inside the home.

Pets
Pets are not allowed. Unauthorized pets will result in a $250 additional cleaning fee due to the extra time required to prepare the home for the next guest.

Furniture & Home Care
Indoor furniture may not be taken outside. Outdoor furniture should be returned to its original location.

Late Check-Out
Late check-out must be approved in advance. Unauthorized late check-out will result in a $100 per hour fee, as it may interfere with cleaning and preparation for incoming guests.

Deliveries & Left Items
We discourage having packages delivered to the property. We are not responsible for lost or stolen deliveries. Items left behind may be returned at the guest’s expense, and a small handling or fuel fee may apply.

Weather, Evacuations & Refunds
Weather conditions, red flags, rain, or other normal coastal conditions do not qualify for refunds. Travel insurance is recommended. In the event of a mandatory evacuation or covered major event, refunds are handled according to VRBO’s policy.
