Other things to note
• Age Requirement
Guests must be 25+ to book The Tipsy Tiki.
• Pool Heat
There's nothing quite like a warm pool on a cool evening. From October through March, we're happy to offer pool heating for $30 per day.
The water takes 24 to 48 hours to reach our ideal 85°F, so please reach out at least 3 days before arrival to have it ready for you. Once your reservation is confirmed, we'll send a separate payment request through Vrbo to the email on file. Just message us to add pool heating, and we'll take care of the rest.
• Parties & Events
Parties, events, and large gatherings are not permitted in accordance with house rules and local occupancy and noise regulations. Only registered guests may be on the property.
• Pet Policy
A one-time, non-refundable pet fee of $120 per stay applies. We allow a maximum of 2 dogs per booking. Please include pets in your reservation and let us know in advance if you’ll be bringing a furry guest.
• Parking
We can accommodate up to 5 vehicles in the driveway. Please note that, per St. Johns County short-term rental regulations, all guest vehicles must be parked on-site in designated parking areas, and street parking is not permitted for guests.
• Pool Safety & Door Alarms
For your safety and in compliance with Florida pool safety regulations, the home features door alarms on all doors providing direct access to the pool area, including the living room sliding glass door and the master bathroom door facing the pool.
To use, press the bypass button before opening the door, step outside, and close the door behind you. When returning, open the door, press the bypass button again, and close the door. The alarm allows a 7-second delay before sounding.
The alarm may seem loud at first, but most guests get used to it quickly. These systems are required for homes with pools and are an important safety feature. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping keep everyone safe.
