House Rules
Our focus is providing comfortable and valuable stay, not perfection or hotel-style service. We welcome guests who appreciate overall value and contribute positively to hosting, while avoiding those who overlook listing details, arrive with unrealistic expectations, or focus on minor imperfections to create negative experiences. To help ensure a positive experience for both guests and host, we are unable to accept reservations from guests who have left any 3-star or lower reviews, or multiple 4-star reviews on prior stays, unless there is clear, well-documented evidence of a serious issue with the previous listing or host. We respectfully prefer a cancellation or early termination over an unsatisfactory stay. Guests are required to complete the online registration promptly to confirm your booking and house rules so any concerns or technical issues can be addressed immediately. If you prefer not to proceed, you may cancel under Airbnb’s standard policy and within 2 hours of booking, then request a refund. The cancellation must be initiated by the guest without delay on the Airbnb platform before requesting the refund. No smoke, No event, No pet home. Check-in time is 4pm or after. Check-out time 10 am or prior. Enhanced Booking Qualifications: 1.

Distance Requirement (Over 3 Hours Drive) To protect the integrity of our home and guest experience, we generally only accept bookings from guests located more than three hours' driving distance from the property. Unfortunately, some short-stay local bookings have led to unreasonable refund demands or retaliatory reviews, which negatively impact our business. 3. Positive Airbnb History Required: A 5-star Airbnb rating reflects overall satisfaction and value—not perfection or hotel-style service. To ensure a positive experience for both guests and host, this home is not a good fit for guests who frequently leave non-5-star reviews or have left any 3-star or lower ratings. Guests without prior reviews or experience are kindly asked to discuss trip expectations with the host in advance to ensure the home is a good fit before booking. 4. Booking Guest Must Check In/Out The person who books must be the one to check in and check out. This helps maintain clear communication, safety, and accountability during your stay.

Guests agree to the following details outlined in the listing to ensure proper expectations are set: 1. Vacation Home Challenges – No Alternative Accommodation Provided We strive to provide a comfortable and enjoyable stay; however, perfection cannot be guaranteed or expected. Occasional issues beyond the host’s control may occur, such as cleaner oversights, prior guest damage, missing items, normal wear and tear, utility or plumbing interruptions, neighbor behavior, community maintenance, Florida’s natural environment, or insect activity. Guests who are particularly sensitive may notice light “closed-up” or unfamiliar odors upon arrival, though most guests do not find these bothersome. Challenges may also arise from unrealistic expectations caused by not reading the listing details carefully or from unfamiliarity with the home and its amenities—for example, going to the wrong door, misusing the digital lock or latch, engaging an interior privacy lock, setting the AC incorrectly, or expecting supplies or amenities that are not provided. As this is a private vacation home without on-site hotel staff, guests should be prepared to manage minor issues independently. If your stay is significantly impacted, the proper solution is to cancel promptly. Guest travel insurance may cover any additional expenses or inconvenience, and the host will approve refunds for unused and unblocked nights. Guests seeking flawless accommodations or hotel-style alternatives should not book this home. 2. Independent Contractor Services: We are a small hosting operation without employees, as we often operate at loss or close to break-even. Instead, we rely on independent contractors for cleaning and repair. While we coordinate closely with them, their availability, response times, and performance cannot be guaranteed. Finding flawless cleaners is challenging, and most guests prefer reasonable rates over premium-priced services. Contractors are compensated for their time and effort (with additional platform fees and government taxes), even if the outcome isn't perfect. Hosts juggle many responsibilities and don't have the time or expertise to personally resolve every on-site issue. Guests who have rated any prior vacation stays 3 stars or lower should refrain from booking with us. 3. Third-Party Service Providers: Vacation homes, like any residence, rely on external services such as utilities, internet, HOA, and resort amenities. The host has no control over service interruptions or repair timelines. Guests are responsible for observing and following all posted signs, community notices, and local rules related to the amenities and surrounding area—regardless of whether the host provides prior notification. As the host is not local, they will not be aware of on-site postings. 4. Mail & Package Delivery: Vacation homes are not served by USPS (United States Postal Service). Guests may arrange mail/package receiving through UPS for approximately $0–$10 per item, depending on the location. FedEx, UPS, and other non-USPS deliveries may be left at the clubhouse (fees may apply) or at the doorstep, at the resort's and carrier’s discretion. The host has no control over deliveries or their security. For guaranteed delivery, we recommend using Amazon Lockers or a UPS Store. 5. No Interior Door Keys or House Phone: Our home does not provide keys for interior doors or a...
