Welcome to Florida!

In addition to our beautiful beaches and sunshine, Florida’s nature, trees, and climate can sometimes attract unwelcome insect visitors like palmetto bugs, mosquitoes, flies, bees, ants, and wasps.

Our property is located in a humid subtropical area, so it's also normal to see wildlife like squirrels, birds, raccoons, snakes, bats, spiders, and occasionally small rodents.

We take every measure to prevent pests with regular professional pest control.

If a bug sneaks inside, feel free to evict it yourself, or let us know. We’ll be happy to re-treat the property if needed.

To help prevent these visitors, avoid leaving doors open for long periods and don’t leave food or crumbs unattended inside or outside.

Refunds, discounts, or negative reviews will not be accepted for wildlife or insect sightings; thanks for understanding.

After all, it’s all part of the Florida experience!

Horrible Experience

I was given 2 different codes to unlock the door. There were drunk people in the street cussing. The neighborhood looked really bad, the sheets were stained and the bath towel was stained. There was a tripping hazard from bedroom to kitchen area. Texts were not returned when I asked for a refund.
