Rules
The Fine Print (But Make It Fun)
Hey sunseekers! Before you drop your bags, kick off your flip-flops, and dive into vacation mode, we’ve got a few rules to keep things breezy, respectful, and permit-friendly for future guests and neighbors alike.
The Serious-but-Sassy Stuff You Gotta Know:
Guest Verification Required
We know—you’re fabulous. But we still need you to complete our secure 3-minute guest screening through our portal. You’ll need your government ID and the credit card you used to book.
No verification = no access. No exceptions. Not even for Aunt Karen.
Cancellation Policy
Plans change. We get it. All cancellations are subject to the policy you agreed to when booking—and merchant fees for processing are non-refundable (those credit card gnomes gotta eat, too).
The House Rules (A.K.A. The Don’t-Get-Us-Fined List)
Minimum age to book: 25
Max Occupancy: 10 humans (yes, that includes babies, toddlers, cousins, and day visitors)
Outdoor security cameras keep an eye on the parking area, entry points, and the chill zone. No peeking indoors—we're classy like that.
The person booking must be the person staying. No renting for your buddy’s bachelor party. (We see you, Chad.)
NO smoking, vaping, or drugs (legal or otherwise). Not on the porch, not by the pool, not with a fox, not in a box.
No animals – sorry Fido, you’ll have to sit this one out.
Two cars max. Always. No boats, RVs, U-Hauls, monster trucks, or commercial vehicles.
Bonus Tip: Parking passes are arranged post-booking and yes, you paid for it already.
No street parking ever. Not even for "just a second."
Quiet hours: 10:00 PM – 8:00 AM. If your playlist is still going, switch it to a whisper.
Shoes off indoors – sand stays on the beach, not in our rugs.
Grilling Like a Pro?
No grilling on porches, patios, or right next to the house. All grills need to be 4+ feet away from any structure. Nobody wants to roast marshmallows off the siding.
Pool Rules (a.k.a. Don’t Be That Guest):
No lifeguard. Swim smart.
Guests & owners only. No surprise pool parties.
Rinse before you dip (this isn't your personal bath).
Kids under 12? Adults must tag along.
No diving, running, cannonballs, or interpretive splash dances.
No smoking (of anything), food, pets, scooters, or bike tricks.
Swimmer diapers = required for little booties.
Skin conditions or tummy troubles? Sit this one out.
Trash goes in the bins, not wherever you feel like.
Pool hours: 8:00 AM – 10:30 PM
No glass. Seriously. Even in coolers. Even if it’s cute.
Take your toys with you daily—leftover floaties go to beach toy heaven.
Furniture stays out of the pool, mermaids.
Be kind to others: no loud music, foul language, or “I’m on vacation” tantrums. You’ll be asked to leave the pool if you forget your manners.
Trash Talk
Dumpsters are across from the small pool. Use them. Do not leave trash beside them “for someone else to deal with.”
No construction dumpsters, no burning trash (seriously), and no trash goblins allowed.
Misc. (Because the HOA Said So):
No sketchy behavior. No “noxious activity.” Basically: don’t be the reason for a neighbor meeting.
Security roams the community and has full authority to enforce all of the above. They’re friendly… until they’re not.
In Summary:
Be cool. Be kind. Don’t fry bacon inside the pool. Respect the space, the rules, and the neighbors. We love sharing this slice of paradise with you, and these rules help us keep doing it.
Now go soak up the sun, sip something cold, and Tropic Like It’s Hot!
