All noise/disturbance that causes neighbors disruption may incur a $500 fine and have their reservation escalated to Airbnb support for termination of reservation with no refund because that can lead to us being forced off Airbnb by the housing community association.

LATE CHECK-OUT POLICY
Late check-outs exceeding 30 minutes without prior notice will incur a fee of $50/hr until you have checked out, as this impacts our cleaning team's schedule for preparing for our next guests. While we strive to be as accommodating as possible, we may have guests checking in at 3:00 pm after your stay, necessitating timely cleanings. Please note, this policy is not an allowance for extended check-outs due to the fine being enforced.
