Smoking, vaping, or e-cigarette use is strictly prohibited at units managed by Paradise Bound Vacations LLC. The costs associated with eliminating odors and residue (including HVAC system care, whenever such systems are present) have compelled us to take a firm stance against smoking in our units. No smoking is permitted inside common hallways nor on patios and balconies. Any clear evidence of smoking/vaping will result in a $500 fine for the renting guest. Thank you for your compliance.
If your unit has an air conditioning unit:
• Do not run the AC while any doors/sliders/windows are open (the coolant lines may freeze).
• Set thermostats between 70 and 75 for optimal performance.
• Guests will be charged for any service calls to fix the HVAC system if coolant lines freeze due to failure to follow established guidelines.
If your vacation rental has a balcony, the following rules apply without exception:
• It is unlawful to climb on or jump from balcony.
• It is unlawful to throw items off balcony (including but not limited to food for animals).
• No indoor furniture may be moved to the outdoor patios or balconies under any circumstances.
• No items of any type shall be hung over or attached to the balcony rails.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, our properties do not accommodate parking for watercraft, trailers, campers, motor homes/RVs, buses, or other similarly oversized vehicles.
The best way to protect your cold food items is to minimize opening the refrigerator door & assure that the air vents (between freezer and fridge compartments) are not blocked – if airflow decreases, moisture and temperature increase. Putting many room-temperature items in a smaller fridge all at once will warm up the refrigerator – returning to its cooler default temperature could take hours.
While we do offer free Wi-Fi, we simply cannot guarantee that it will work perfectly (or at all). To boot, Tech Support is limited in many areas. If it is crucial that you have reliable internet access, we strongly recommend you provide your own hotspot device. No refunds or credits are offered for Wi-Fi interruptions.
No refunds or credits will be forthcoming if guests are in violation of any policies or requirements and are consequently denied access to the property. No refunds or credits offered for if amenities are made unavailable by the resort/HOA. Guests will be fined for any damage to the unit or its contents.
