Owner or Agent may re-enter premises at a reasonable time for the purpose of making repairs or for routine maintenance. Owner or Agent is not responsible for articles left on premises. All properties are non-smoking. We make every attempt to make sure the home or villa you’ve rented is in good working order when you arrive. If you do encounter a maintenance problem in the home or villa, it will be handled in a timely and professional manner. The rental rate will not be adjusted due to any malfunction of equipment. Beach Properties of Hilton Head is not responsible for resort amenities such as scheduled pool and spa closures, etc. At the time of this publication, all home and villa amenities are accurate to the best of our knowledge. Furniture and accessories are subject to change as owners may update their properties.

SECURITY DEPOSIT: An approved credit card number must be on file in the name of the renter to hold as a security deposit in the case of damage or extraordinary cleaning after your departure. We inspect each property before and after all guest stays. If furniture is moved you will incur a charge to move it back.

EXPRESS CHECK-IN: For your convenience, we mail, or email out your keys, or code, car passes, directions and activities guide three weeks prior to your arrival. We must receive your signed rental agreement and pool waiver (if applicable) before we can mail out your keys and car passes. CHECK-IN is anytime after 4:00pm - CHECK-OUT is by 10:00am on the day of departure. Renter agrees to scheduled arrival and departure times. We make every effort to ensure your property is ready by 4:00pm but we cannot guarantee it.

GUEST: Guest understands that should the property become unavailable for guest’s use through the sale of the premises or other disposition, owner occupancy of premises or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the rental agent, the agent may substitute with the best available, comparable resort accommodations for the same period.

TRAVEL INSURANCE: Protect your travel investment. When you purchase trip cancellation insurance you protect your travel investment if an unforeseen event such as illness or mandatory hurricane evacuation should occur. Trip cancellation insurance is 7% of the total cost of your rental and may be purchased any time prior to departing for your vacation. (If pre-existing conditions apply, insurance must be purchased with or prior to your final payment.) For more information on this comprehensive coverage, call CSA Travel Protection & Insurance Services at 1-866-298-6846.

If you are found in violation of the policy, Agent reserves the right to immediately cancel your rental reservation and occupancy of the dwelling. Additionally, Guest will forfeit all monies and incur a minimum additional penalty of $300.

REPAIRS: Even the best or newest equipment occasionally malfunctions and cannot be guaranteed 100% of the time. Beach Properties uses the best maintenance personnel available. Problems are corrected as soon as possible. Agent or an authorized employee or repairman may enter the premises during business hours for any purpose connected with the repair, care or maintenance of the premises. Refunds will not be issued due to malfunctioning equipment or other guest dissatisfaction. Hilton Head is a highly desirable developing resort area with houses under construction. We do not move people or give refunds due to construction noise.

USE: Any use of the dwelling other than residential use during a family vacation must be approved by the Agent. If the dwelling is to be used for any event such as weddings, receptions, “parties” or large gatherings, the Guest agrees to submit a request for approval to the Agent and adhere to the Agent’s determination on that request. If the Agent approves the event, the Guest may be required to pay an additional deposit. If Guest misrepresents an event to the Agent (said misrepresentation to be determined by the Agent), the Guest agrees that the Agent may refuse occupancy or have the dwelling vacated and that the Guest will not be entitled to any refund.
