🌴 South Florida Living Notes
This is tropical living—beautiful, lush, and occasionally wild. While we have regular pest control, the South Florida climate means you may still encounter some of our natural neighbors.
• 🐜 Please keep doors and windows closed to help avoid pests
• 🦎 You may encounter iguanas, birds, mosquitos, ants, or palmetto bugs—part of our tropical ecosystem
• 🧼 Regular pest control is performed, but sightings may still occur and are not grounds for refunds
• ❄️ AC units are powerful but can struggle during extreme heat
• ⚠️ Avoid setting the thermostat below 68°F to prevent freezing
• 🚫 Do not unplug Wi-Fi routers or automation devices—this can disrupt important systems
We graciously ask that you embrace the occasional quirks of South Florida living while staying with us.
Early Check in or late check out?
We take pride in the cleaning and sanitation process between guests. If possible early check ins, and late check outs would need to be organized 24 hours in advanced and are subject to an additional fee of $25 per hour. If the cleaning team arrives and the guest has not departed delaying cleaning, a $50 service charge will be applied to your closing costs.
Booking Requirements:
To confirm your reservation, guests are required to:
• Sign a rental agreement within 48 hours of booking
• Upload a valid driver’s license
• Place a card on file for verification
A refundable security hold of $500 is also required. This hold is processed securely off-platform through our API-connected software, OwnerRez, which is trusted by the hospitality industry for safe and secure transactions. The hold is placed 2 days prior to arrival and released 7 days after departure, provided no damages are reported.
Please note, there are security cameras on the outside of the house for safety, owners personal belongings and Amazon Key Deliveries.
We are excited to host you and wanted to update you to be aware that we are continually making updates to the home so you may experience some slight variations in decor as we transition the space.
