WHAT TIME IS CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT?
Check-in time is 4 p.m. and check-out is at 11 a.m. Early check-in and late check-out may be available for your reservation.

WILL I NEED TO MEET THE PROPERTY MANAGER TO GET A KEY?
Our homes are keyless entry, we issue a “code” rather than a physical key. The code changes for every reservation so it is an incredibly safe alternative. By issuing the code prior to arrival, the check-in process is much easier.

WHAT ARE THE POOL HOURS? ARE THEY HEATED?
Puerta Azul community: The two community pools are heated year-round and are open 7 am – 11 pm. Homes with a private pool & jacuzzi can be heated for an additional fee. Check individual listing for info.

DO YOU ALLOW PETS?
Certain non-shedding hypoallergenic dogs will be considered at an additional fee.

House Notes: During the hot summer nights, it's possible to encounter some gentle insects such as crickets, etc..
