We offer our rentals only to clean and peaceful guests who agree to our house rules.

Pet rent is $25/night/pet for most pets, with a minimum of $50 per stay for shedding dogs
We cannot accept animals with a history of aggression or the following: wild canines, Akitas, Cane Corsos, Chow Chows, Dogo Argentinos, Pit Bulls (includes all bully types informally labeled as a type of "Pit Bull"), Presa Canario, Rottweilers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, or mixes/hybrids containing these. We have owned and loved some of the breeds on this list, so it isn't personal- we want to keep our insurance coverage.

We're Health-conscious & Nature-friendly!
Other hosts use pest-control products that harm pets and wildlife. In order to protect our guests , we focus on cleanliness rather than dousing homes in chemicals that harm pets and children. We implement safer pest control methods which can take longer to work. By booking, you acknowledge that occasional visits from tiny locals and evidence of 4-legged guests is part of the experience and not grounds for complaints/refunds.

Big group? Book up to four of our adjacent cottages for up to 21 guests!

Provided beach gear include chairs, towels, and boogie board(s). If desired, snorkel gear may be be rented at nearby shops.

To start your stay, you'll receive a free 2-day supply of essentials like soap, toilet paper, and paper towels.
