If a guest does not and uses it and causes damage to the house including smoke damage, they will be charged a fee of at least $3,000 to cover damages which can be severe and expensive.

HOW WE MONITOR OUR CONDOS          

First, we have noise monitoring devices setup in each condo that will alert us to loud music or a loud party. We will then act accordingly with the local authorities. Some even have devices that monitor the temperature, mold, and how many cell phones are in the unit.

Second, we have Ring or Blink cameras outside the condo, and we will know how many have entered or if you bring a pet etc. We also use them to monitor the hot tub covers (if provided), the weather, and wildlife. There are no video or still cameras inside the rental.
