1) PAYMENT DUE – All rental monies are due according to the payment schedule disclosed under “Payment Policy” above on reservation acceptance.

4) CONDITION OF PROPERTY: Owners have, to the best of their ability, given an accurate description of the property and its condition. Guest understands that it is considered as reserved “sight unseen”. Our cleaning staff will have cleaned it before your occupancy. All electrical, plumbing and appliances should be in working order. The failures of operation of certain extra amenities, such as TVs, cable, games, or the Internet and Wi-Fi service are not a basis for any refund. Owner will make every effort to have these items repaired but does not guarantee that they will be repaired during Renters’ occupancy. When you arrive, if you find that the condo has not been cleaned to normal standards please notify the Property Manager immediately. He will do his best to have tradesmen attend to the problems but may not be able to fix everything over holidays and weekends. Under no circumstances will any of the rental money be refunded or returned because of the condition of the condo. The Renter agrees to hold the Owner harmless from any liability for the condition of the condo. Due to the nature of beach properties, the sand, stairs, decks and concrete are not always stable. Use at your own risk.

5) CLEANING & REPAIRS: The condo has cleaning included in the total rent. Renter agrees to keep condo, furniture and furnishings in good order. Removing, adding or changing furniture without Owner’s written approval shall be deemed a material breach of this Rental Agreement, and is strictly prohibited. Renter is responsible for cost of replacement of any damage to furniture or premises and replacement of missing items. Under no circumstances can any furnishing or linen be taken outside onto the beach except for those items specifically mentioned in paragraph 8.

6) ENTRY OF PREMISES: With Renter’s permission, which is hereby given, Owner or Owner’s representative may enter the premises during reasonable daylight hours without securing prior permission from Renter but shall give Renter notice of such entry immediately prior if possible and immediately thereafter. For inventory and maintenance purposes the Property Manager may need to enter the premises. The same permission procedure applies as above. In any emergency, Owner, Property Manager, or Pointe Santo Property Manager may enter the premises at any time without permission of Guest for the purposes of making repairs to alleviate such emergency. If Guest abandons or vacates premises, Owner may, at his option, terminate this agreement, re-enter the premises and remove all Renters’ property.

7) ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE INSURANCE – Renters will be completely responsible for all damage to the home or property caused by Renters, whether accidental or due to Renters negligence. However, Renters understand that the rental includes an accidental damage rental policy providing up to $3,000 in accidental damage protection provided Renters notify the owner and assist the owner in making a claim. Renters understand that Renters are responsible for damage beyond the coverage provided by the accidental damage insurance. Renters are also responsible for damage that would have been covered by the accidental damage insurance if Renters fail to advise the Owner of the damage and provide the necessary information that would allow the Owner to file a claim against the policy.

8) USE OF EXTRAS – The owner will furnish beach towels and beach equipment such as beach chairs and beach shades (EZUPs, umbrellas, etc.). The beach equipment is stored in the Beach closet by the fourth-floor elevator door. If Renters use any of these items they will wash, dry and return them to their prior location at the end of the rental period. Do not bring beach equipment into the condo without cleaning properly. Report broken chairs or umbrella to the Property Manager immediately so replacement can be arranged. Any unused beds will be left as found. Leave used beds unmade and used towels on the bathroom floor.

9) ASSUMPTION OF RISK: No lifeguard may be on duty. Accordingly, persons using the beach, pool, or hot tub do so at their own risk and the Owners assume no responsibility for accident or injury. Renters will hold the Owners harmless from all bodily injury and/or property damage incurred on the property arising out of Renters’ negligent acts or omissions. See disclaimer below.
