Your packing list will depend on the time of year and your interests. Many guests stay with us for the nearby beaches. If that’s your plan, don’t forget:
Sunscreen
Umbrellas
Beach Chairs

If you’re in town for other attractions or to experience our great cuisine, you would need to plan appropriately. Since many restaurants require a short walk from the nearest parking, we would recommend wearing shoes that you can comfortably walk in.
Florida weather can also be a little unpredictable so a rain jacket is an excellent idea.

How To Use This Guide
Welcome to our vacation rental!
This is your time and your time is precious. That’s why we’ve created this guidebook. You’ll find everything you need to know about staying with us, from check-in time to the WiFi code, bike rentals to the best local restaurants. It’s all here.
How To Use This Guide
Before your arrival and during your stay, you can reference this guide to find most common questions about the house and plan your vacation. In the end, we hope this guide will make your stay more enjoyable, make you feel at home, and allow you to spend more time DOING and less time PLANNING.
In The Kitchen
In the kitchen you’ll find the following appliances:
Fridge
Gas Range
Microwave
Blender
Toaster
Coffee Pot
Electric Kettle
Operating The Gas Range
If you’ve never cooked on a gas range before, a few things to note:
Everything cooks much faster
Keep temperatures lower than you normally would on an electric range. Meaning, if you normally cook something on medium-high on an electric range, you’ll set it to medium on the gas range.
Make sure you turn off gas when finished. Gas can be dangerous if you don’t pay attention.
To operate the gas burners, push in and turn the knob to the Lighting label. You’ll hear the gas range clicking as it attempts to light the burner. Hold it on this position until you see the flame at which time continue to turn the dial to your desired heating level (high to low).
The oven works like any other electric oven, simply press bake and then set your desired temperature.
Operating A/C & Heat
Downstairs Unit
The thermostat that controls the downstairs A/C is located on the wall between the two downstairs bedrooms. You can change the mode (heat or cool) by clicking on the symbol that appears above the temperature numbers. Once on the proper setting, using the touchscreen drag up or down on the right side of the screen.
Upstairs Unit
The thermostat for the upstairs unit is located at the top of the stairs. It works the exact same way as the downstairs thermostat.
Important
If you are running the A/C or heat, please keep doors and windows closed. Should you want to open doors and windows, please turn off the unit.
