Other things to note:
- Pool/spa is not heated, but can be heated for an additional fee. $200 minimum for up to 4 days and then $50 per day after. If you would like the pool/spa heated for your stay, you must request at least 48hrs in advance of your arrival. No parties, no outside guests or loud music on the patio.

- Limited Liability for the pool and pool equipment. Our pool is outdoors and fronts to the bay. This means that the pool and spa are exposed to the elements including leaves falling in, debris blown in from the wind, rain, algae formation etc. The pipes and pool heaters have to withstand extreme temperatures and weather conditions. When something breaks it can take time to get parts and technicians out. Because of this, our liability is limited to 10% of your nightly rate if anything fails with the pool or pool equipment and we are unable to repair within 24 hours. We will always try to make your stay as pleasant as possible but sometimes it is out of our control.

- Please note while the house is child-friendly in the sense that we allow children, you do need to watch your children and not leave them unattended, as the pool does not have a gate and there is direct ocean access from the back yard.

- Please keep in mind this is a coastal property in Texas and there are naturally a lot of bugs and other local animals around. We have monthly service for spraying inside and around the property and have several Dynatraps to help control the situation. It is also very important to keep all doors closed. Leaving doors open for only a minute can cause bugs can come in. Also, leaving food and trash out will attract all kinds of unwanted visitors which is why we suggest you store and properly dispose of your food items. We do not give any type of refund for insect sightings or related issues.

- As the detailed photos show, two of the upstairs bedrooms are open to and overlook the living space below, they are also connected upstairs. These two rooms also have stunning views and are the best place to see the sunrise over the water.
