SEASIDE VACATION HOMES RENTAL POLICIES

The following policies are dictated by city ordinances to control the noise and congestion of our neighborhoods as well as maintain the quality of our properties. To maintain our rental permits we cannot allow RVs, campers, trailers or tents at the homes and the occupancy limit of each home may not be exceeded at anytime. The total occupancy includes non-occupant visitors. If you anticipate having visitors drop by we ask that you rent a larger home. Violation of this rule is grounds of an additional minimum $500 cleaning fee.

To make a reservation more than 90 days prior to arrival we require a non-refundable fee of $200, which is applied to the rent. All balances are due 90 days in advance of occupancy or immediately if the reservation is made within the time period. A city/state lodging tax of 9% is assessed on the daily rate. In addition, customers are assessed a service fee which covers booking the reservation, cleaning the home and small value incidental damages. A credit card is required to be on file for any extensive damages or excessive cleaning that may be required.

It is important to understand our cancellation policy before making your reservation. All cancellations will result in loss of your $200 reservation fee. If a cancellation is received less than 90 days from your arrival date, it may result in forfeiture of all fees if we are unable to re-rent the property for the same dates. However, if we can rebook the days cancelled, your fees will be returned minus the $200 reservation fee.

Minimum booking requirements are generally 2 days from September - June excluding holidays where there is a 4 day minimum. In July - August the minimum stay is 4 nights at the Resort. For minimum stay requirements at the vacation homes please check the policy section listed on each home detail page.

For your convenience we accept VISA, MasterCard and Discover cards and require that a active card be on file in case of damage to the property.

Our regular season begins in May on the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend and runs until October 1. Please note that during the winter months all of our homes offer a discounted rate except for holidays.
