Below is a summary of the policies outlined in our formal rentalagreement. This page is meant as an overview only. 

There is a security deposit requirement (the amount depends on the size of the group and if there are any pets). The security deposit is refunded in its entirety within 30 days if there is no damage to the property and no extra cleaning is required. We request 50% deposit of the total charges to reserve the dates, with the remainder due 60 days prior to arrival.

If you have any questions, be sure to contact us!

Arrival and Departure

• Checkin time is 4 pm, checkout time is 10 am.
• There is $150/hour charge for early arrival and late departure, as our housekeepers need to be able to prepare the property for arriving guests in a timely manner.

• Beach pass not left in the house upon departure will incur a full replacement fee, which will be deducted from your security deposit.

  against an event where you may need to cancel your reservation. CSA Travel Protection plan offers TRIP CANCELLATION plan designed specifically for vacationers booking vacation rental accomodations.
