Rental Policies & Conditions

Reservations:  A minimum of 50% down per reservation is required at time of booking.  Final payment is due in full 45 days prior to arrival.  In the event of cancellation, refunds must be obtained from CSA Travel Protection (if you elected to purchase travel insurance) and are subject to their policies and conditions.  To protect against the loss of your rental payments, travel insurance is strongly recommended.  Each reservation is also subject to a non-refundable $60 reservation fee, a non-refundable $39 damage waiver and a cleaning fee.  This is taxable at the rate of 12%.

Rental Contract: You will receive a rental contract via email.  Please read, initial, sign and either fax to 850-934-1801 or scan and email to info@pensacolabeachproperty.com.

Damage Waiver: For standard vacation rentals, a damage waiver of $39.00 (plus 12% tax) is added to each reservation and is included in the total quoted to you at booking. The damage waiver is non-refundable and covers accidental damages to the unit or its contents up to a replacement cost or repair of $3000.00.  This damage waiver does not cover damages by pets or willful or gross negligent behavior that results in damages. 

Travel Protection Insurance: Travel Insurance is available through CSA Travel Protection.  This is an optional plan, but we strongly recommend it.  In case of any unforeseen events, this insurance helps protect your vacation investment.  NO REFUNDS will be given (for cancellations prior to 45 days before arrival) if you choose not to purchase this coverage.  Questions in regard to CSA Travel Protection can be obtained by calling 800-554-9839 or reviewing the certificate of insurance on their website at www.vacationrentalinsurance.com

Cancellation Policy: To prevent loss of rental payments, we strongly recommend purchasing CSA Travel Protection. All cancellations are subject to a cancellation fee of $60.00 (plus tax) and travel protection if purchased will all be forfeited.  Your prepaid rent less the cancellation fee will be returned if the reservation is cancelled prior to 45 days before arrival. All reservations cancelled 45 days or less will forfeit the entire advance payment.  Tenants that chose to purchase travel insurance please contact CSA Travel Protection at 800-554-9839.  

Occupancy:

§         The total number of persons allowed in the property at any time is restricted to the stated limit for each property. Eviction without refund is the penalty. We are very serious about maintaining a family atmosphere for the quiet enjoyment of all our guests. We will rent to family groups and responsible adults only. MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENT IS 25 YEARS OLD, AND HE/SHE MUST PHYSICALLY OCCUPY THE PREMISES FOR THE FULL TERM OF THE RESERVATION. No student groups allowed. Any reservation made under false pretense will result in forfeiture of rent and eviction. Identification is required at check-in for all reservations.

§         No parties, weddings, or gatherings are allowed without prior written permission from PBP. Absolutely no student groups or house parties will be tolerated.

§         All accommodations are governed by appropriate Florida Laws pertaining to Florida Landlord and Tenant Act, and also Rules and Regulations that are applicable to said premises. Occupancy of common areas shall be quiet and peaceful so as not to disturb others.  These Rules and Regulations, where applicable, will be enclosed in your arrival packet along with any required parking permits and/or pool keys/passes for the condominium complexes, so be sure to go through them thoroughly.  

Hurricane Policy: If a mandatory evacuation is issued by the National Hurricane Center or our local governing officials due to a tropical storm or hurricane threatening our area, refunds will be given by CSA Travel Protection if you purchased coverage before the storm was named.  PBP will not issue refunds of any rent payments.

Payment:

  • Final rental payments are due in full 45 days prior to arrival.
  • All payments are due in advance and therefore you will enjoy the convenience of our Express Check-In Service. 
  • You may pay with cash, personal check, traveler’s checks, money order, Discover Card, Visa, or MasterCard.  Should your personal check be returned for any reason, there will be a $65.00 returned check fee added to your balance.
  • Sorry, no refunds will be given for inclement weather or early check-outs.

Check-in Procedures: Check-in time is between 3:00 pm and 5:00 pm on date of arrival.  Check in at the PBP office, not the rental property.  Please call our office for late arrival instructions.

Check-out Procedures: Check-out time is 10:00 am on the day of departure.

  • Please return all keys, plus any parking permits to the PBP office by 10:00 am. Do NOT leave keys in the property.  All guests and belongings must be out of the property when the keys are returned to our office.  If our office is closed when you check-out, simply drop your items in the “key drop” slot next to our front door.
  • To avoid additional cleaning charges, please do the following before departure:
    • Remove all food from refrigerator.
    • Load dirty dishes into dishwasher.
    • Leave furniture arranged as you found it.
    • Remove all garbage and put in the outside receptacle.
    • Close and lock all windows and doors.
    • Please leave the property neat and orderly.

Lockouts: If you lock yourself out of your property after office hours, you will need to call Lockmobile at 850-932-LOCK. You will be responsible for paying any applicable fees directly to Lockmobile at the time they come out.  If you lock yourself out of your property during office hours, of course we will be happy to come let you in at no charge.

Parking:

  • Most complexes have parking permits that you will receive at check-in.  There is a maximum of 2 permits per unit. Additional vehicles will need to be parked in a public parking lot.  Display the permits on your dashboard or rearview mirror at all times.
  • Most condos/townhomes prohibit boats, trailers, jet-skis, motor homes and buses.  If traveling with any of these, please call PBP ahead of time to discuss other parking options.

Garbage Removal: Please place household trash in appropriate receptacles (trash chutes, dumpster, or covered outside containers provided). 

Grilling: Management and fire codes prohibit charcoal or open fire grilling on or under decks or porches, or within ten feet of any structure. Please check property for designated grilling area.

Owner Closets: Each property has a locked closet that has personal property of the owners. These locked closets are not to be tampered with or entered into. If evidence is found of disturbance/tampering into the owner closet, the penalty is $200.00 charged to the authorized credit card on file with your reservation.

Substitution: We reserve the right to substitute comparable accommodations without notice or liability in the event of a sale of the rental property or if the property becomes unavailable. In these rare instances we will try to notify you of the change.  Units may not be sublet.

Indemnity: PBP will not be liable for any damages to rental property or furnishings, nor for injuries resulting from any accident that may occur in or on the premises during the guest’s occupancy. PBP will not be held responsible for acts of theft or vandalism or other damages to the guest’s personal items left in the unit.

Items left in property: PBP is not responsible for personal items left in a property. A $20.00 service charge plus shipping costs are required if you request PBP to pick up and mail the items back to you.  Any items otherwise unclaimed will be considered abandoned after five days from your departure.

Pets: While our pets are important to us, unfortunately we cannot accept them in our rental properties.  You will incur an additional charge if any evidence of a pet is found in your unit or on the premises.  Having a pet in a rental unit without previous permission will void the contract and therefore be subject to eviction and forfeiture of any rental payments.

Units for Sale : In the event a property you are renting is listed for sale, we may find the need to show the property during your visit. We will make every effort to schedule the showing at a convenient time so we do not disturb your vacation.  

Monthly Rentals:  Some of our rentals do offer monthly rates which are available for the months of October, November, December, January and February.
