A note on pets: Dogs only allowed. Pets must be disclosed and paid for prior to check-in. If pups are brought to the property that are not disclosed and paid for, the reservation will be cancelled and no money refunded. We offer an extremely reasonable pet fee pricing for a home of this level, so just be honest;). Sorry, no dogs on furniture or beds, no dangerous dogs and sadly, no Pit bulls or Rottweilers allowed (our insurance won`t allow them even though we love these furry pups).

The property has Ring cameras on the front and back (the back cameras are pointed towards the dock, not the hot tub, this is for guest and boat security:)).

We work really hard to keep the unit fully stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. We are fun and laid back company and our owners only want to host others that are also fun or laid back. We have done everything we can think of to make this unit an awesome beach retreat and we want you to have the best time ever but we`d love to hear your suggestions, too.

Smoking: We take this very seriously. We don`t care what you smoke, just go outside to do it. We don`t mess around with this, you will lose your deposit and incur damage fees for us having to have everything (curtains, furniture, etc) cleaned if you smoke anything in the house or if you smoke near doors or windows and the smoke smell gets in the house. It`s a non-negotiable so please just go outdoors to smoke and away from the doors. Also the owner requests that NO Turkey Fryers be used or brought for use to the property at any time. It`s Florida so being outside enjoying the sunshine or watching one of our amazing storms can be fun! Lastly: Everyone at our company (staff and owners) really loves helping people make great vacation memories. We are human and travel too, and we try to look for the good not the bad when vacationing. The point of telling you that is that this is an awesome unit and we work really hard on it, but things can and will happen. We don`t know when the microwave will break (if it does we will replace it) or if a Florida palmetto bug will sneak in the house (we are located in Florida which is a jungle..the unit is treated for pests but sometimes they will sneak in and there is nothing we can do about it). Every unit is professionally cleaned prior to check-in but if our cleaners miss something just give us a call and we will send them right back out to fix it. If things like that would bother you, then we may not be the place for you. These are things that we have experienced as well at vacation rentals while travelling and we roll with the punches and have fun. We are not in this business to be a hotel, we have a fun place for guests to stay with friends and family that is fairly priced.. if you are uptight or looking for perfection we aren`t the place for you. If you are ready for fun in the sun with friends and family, adorable decor and a management company that will respond if you do happen to have any issues...book away and get ready to vacay! We`ve been doing this awhile and are just over uptight people that look for reasons to complain when they should be enjoying their beach vacation. We can`t wait to welcome fun and happy people to our beach town. Damage Waiver Disclaimer: I.
