* New linens policy: We prefer that you bring your own, due to time constraints checking out. We will have linens available to use, but renters will be responsible for making beds, washing and folding / returning to rooms. If you are unable to get this completed, we understand, but a fair service fee will be deducted from your security deposit. We do not charge for cleaning, so this is a service that is not included in our rental price. For comparable rates or to have it done professionally, contact Sheets At The Beach.
