CHECK-IN / CHECK-OUT

Check-out:        10:00 AM

CHECK-IN begins at 2:00PM and ends at 07:00PM on the date of your arrival as indicated on your reservation confirmation. In cases where guests arrive after check-in hours, a package with your house keys, alarm codes and property access codes will be left in a safe outside of the property to the left of the gate and you will be provided the code to the safe by our concierge. After-hours check-ins are only available if the reservation is paid in full and the rental agreement has been signed and returned. Due to the size and complexity of Mariposa Vacation Homes, our maids and maintenance staff work hard utilizing every last minute between 10:00AM and 2:00PM to ensure the property is clean and ready for occupancy by 2:00PM. Please do not arrive at the property prior to check-in unless otherwise arranged with Management or the concierge. In some circumstances, it may be necessary to delay check-in past 2:00PM to ensure the property is ready to reasonable standards. No refunds or discounts will be considered in the unlikely event of such delays.

CHECK-OUT time is no later than 10:00AM on your departure date. The concierge will meet the guests at their home to conduct the check-out. Guests are required to return the house keys while the concierge conducts a check for incidentals. All items such as beach chairs, beach bikes and any other rental items must be left at the home upon check-out. Fees may occur for failure to return these items to the property at check-out.

LATE CHECK-OUT

In the event that you require a late check-out, there is a late check-out fee per hour for each house and prior approval is required to ensure sufficient time for our staff to prepare the property for the next check-in especially on the same day of your check-out. If there is no prior written approval and the check-out is more than 1 hour late, a late fee will be charged at managements sole discretion. Casa Yin Yang ($250/hour), Casa Monarca ($250/hour), Casa Morpho ($100/hour).

Cancellations

In the case of a cancellation, we require at least 90 days prior written notice from date of check-in to accredit the amount you deposited less 20% administration fee per beach house based on the full rental amount.
