Sandpiper's Nest Rental Procedures
In order to reserve Sandpiper"s Nest, you must pay a reservation/damage deposit of $500 per week. This can be done via personal check, bank transfer, or credit card. The deposit will reserve the house for you; when you arrive at the house, the deposit becomes a damage deposit. Assuming no problems, the deposit will be refunded within two weeks of your departure.
Please note: the reservation/damage deposit does not apply to the rent (except by specific agreement with previous renters). Once a reservation is made and paid, refunds are made only if the house becomes uninhabitable OR if the owners are able to re-rent it for the same amount as the original booking. All travelers are encouraged to obtain trip cancellation insurance!
You will complete a Rental Agreement which specifies the conditions of your rental. Names of all persons staying in the house must be placed on the agreement and no additional people are allowed to stay. You and the owners will both sign the rental agreement, indicating that all conditions are acceptable.
The full rent, taxes, and cleaning fee (when applicable) are due no later than 8 weeks prior to your arrival. When these monies are paid, you will receive directions, lock box code to enter the house, and other important details. General information such as emergency numbers, dates for trash collection, and computer instructions, are posted in the house.
The check in time is no earlier than 3:00 PM and the check out time is no later than 10:00 AM. The cleaning crew will arrive at the house at 10:00 AM and they require 4-5 hours to clean and prepare the house for the next guests. The cleaners have been instructed to not allow guests to enter the house prior to the check in time.
