OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

⭐️ BEACH INFO & SAFETY ⭐️
Swimming in the Gulf of Mexico is very different from pool swimming. Please respect the strength of the water and stay aware of current conditions. Rip currents can occur, so we recommend checking weather and surf updates before entering. For daily beach flags and conditions, text ALBEACHES to 888-777. We do not provide beach chairs or umbrellas. Beach towels are included, and we’re happy to connect you with local rental companies—details will be shared in your check-in message.

⭐️ ACCESS & PROPERTY DETAILS ⭐️
Guests have full access to the entire home, including all indoor living spaces, outdoor decks, and the spacious yard. As a true beachfront property, you’ll enjoy direct access to the sand and Gulf just steps from the home. Enjoy complimentary WiFi, a smart TV, and multiple areas designed for relaxing and gathering throughout your stay.

⭐️ WILDLIFE & NATURE ⭐️
Our homes are located near natural preserves, where wildlife is part of the experience. You may encounter animals such as birds, rabbits, snakes, and occasionally coyotes—please be mindful of your surroundings and avoid disturbing any wildlife. Sea turtle nesting season runs from May through October. During this time, please do not leave beach equipment or bright lights on the beach overnight, as this can disrupt nesting and hatchlings. Sea turtles and their nests are protected, and it is important to respect these guidelines.

This is a pet-free home, and we do not allow pets. Service animals are welcome in accordance with applicable laws and Airbnb policies. While advance notice is not required, we do appreciate a heads-up prior to arrival to help ensure a smooth check-in experience. In accordance with guidelines, we may ask whether the animal is required because of a disability and what work or task it has been trained to perform. Service animals must be housebroken, under control at all times, and may not be left unattended in the home. Guests are responsible for any damage or excessive cleaning caused during their stay.

⭐️ DELIVERIES & PACKAGES ⭐️
This beach house has a mailbox and can receive packages delivered via USPS. If you plan to ship items ahead of your stay, UPS and FedEx are also acceptable delivery options. For time-sensitive deliveries or special arrangements, please contact us in advance to ensure smooth delivery.
