On rare occasions, a golf cart may not be in working order or may need repair while the guest is vacationing. There will be no discount given for unavoidable non-use of a golf cart in the event the golf cart stops working. However, every effort will be made to repair the cart in a timely manner.

7. EVICTION – Beach Blue Properties, LLC reserves the right to evict any guest party that causes the following (but not limited to): excess noise or disturbances to neighboring guests, participation in unlawful activity such as drug use, underage alcohol use or fighting. If law enforcement or resort security is dispatched to the property, the guest party will automatically be evicted.

8. VACATION RENTAL DAMAGE PLAN – The Vacation Rental Damage Plan is included in your total rental cost. The Vacation Rental Damage Plan covers unintentional damage to the rental unit interior that may occur during your stay, provided damage is disclosed to management prior to check out. The policy will pay a maximum benefit of $1,500. Any damage that exceeds $1,500 will be charged to the credit card on file. If, during your stay at one of our Rental Properties, an Insured Person causes damage to real or personal property of the unit as a result of inadvertent acts or omissions, the Insurer will reimburse Beach Blue Properties for the cost of repair or replacement of such property up to a maximum benefit of $1,500.

11. HURRICANE OR STORM POLICY – Should a hurricane or tropical storm threaten our area, we will receive evacuation instructions from the National Hurricane Center and our local officials. If a “Mandatory Evacuation” order is issued and you have purchased CSA Traveler’s Insurance coverage before the storm was named, a refund will be given by CSA Travel Protection. Beach Blue, LLC will not issue a refund of any payments due to a hurricane or storm. Please refer to the CSA Travel Protection information in Paragraph #14.

12. RESERVATION CANCELLATION – Please contact our office as soon as possible if you must cancel or change your reservation. You must send written notice of cancellation to Beach Blue by email to info@beachblueproperties.com. Reservations cancelled at least 30 days prior to the arrival date will receive a full refund. Reservations cancelled 14-29 days prior to the arrival date will receive a refund of 50% of the amount paid. Reservations cancelled within 14 days of arrival will receive no refund unless the guest purchased travel insurance. To receive a travel insurance refund, you will file a claim with the travel insurance company. See details below regarding Generali Travel Insurance.

No date changes or property changes may be implemented after the final payment is made. Refunds are processed to the credit card that was used for the original payment. Beach Blue is not responsible for exchange rate differentials.

13. PROPERTY SUBSTITUTION – Beach Blue Properties, LLC manages properties that are privately owned and subject to reasonable wishes of the Owner. Properties are occasionally removed from our rental program on short notice due to change in ownership or other changes made by the Owner. In addition, a property may become uninhabitable due to unforeseen maintenance issues. Although we will do our best to fulfill your specific request, it is not guaranteed. At the time your Reservation is confirmed, we reserve the right to change the assignment to a comparable Rental Property. Should this occur to a confirmed Reservation, every effort will be made to contact you to inform you of the need to change your Reservation to another suitable accommodation. Please be assured you will either be moved to a comparable Rental Property or upgraded, at our discretion, depending on Rental Property availability. In some cases, a comparable Rental Property may not be available due to the unique nature of the request (e.g. penthouse units); in which event Beach Blue Properties, LLC may offer you the next best comparable Rental Property, reschedule your Reservation, or offer you a refund. No two properties are the same. Inventories and furnishings are subject to change without notice.

14. TRAVEL PROTECTION INSURANCE – Travel protection insurance is available through CSA Travel Protection. Your purchase of the travel protection plan is optional, however, we strongly recommend it. Travel insurance can help protect you from certain unexpected risks offering protection for Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, and Travel Delay.

There are two ways to purchase travel insurance. You may purchase a CSA Travel Protection insurance policy through Beach Blue Properties any time prior to your final payment. Please review the policy guidelines at www.vacationrentalinsurance.com/330CERT. An example of the policy can be found at http://www.csainsuranceservices.com/pdf/330csa_doc.pdf.

You may also purchase travel insurance directly from CSA Travel Protection. For information about the policy offered by CSA Travel Protection directly, please call 800-348-9505. IMPORTANT: Although both policies offered are underwritten by CSA, the coverage and premium costs are different. Please contact CSA Travel Protection at 800-348-9505 with specific questions.
