We have 2 beautiful cats that live ONLY in our private space and have never been inside the private guest unit, however guests with severe pet allergies may wish to consider this before booking.

----A quick note about Tropical Florida!!
Florida’s warm climate and beautiful outdoor environment also mean you may occasionally see local wildlife and insects! This can include palmetto bugs (flying roaches that live in palm trees), lizards, and sometimes stinging insects around outdoor areas. We have regular professional pest control service to help keep the home comfortable for guests. However, even with routine treatment, it’s still possible for an occasional pest to find its way indoors. To help minimize this, we recommend keeping doors and windows closed whenever possible.

While we do everything we can to maintain the home, occasional insects are simply part of living in Florida! Because of this, seeing insects outdoors or the occasional pest indoors is not considered grounds for a refund.

From arcade nights and glow-in-the-dark mini golf to poolside lounging and beach days, The Surf & Skate Shack is built for fun, comfort, and memories that last. Book now and experience retro beach vibes done right
