Vacation home rentals offer more space, privacy, and comfort than hotels—perfect for families or groups. Enjoy full kitchens, private amenities, and a home-away-from-home experience, often at a better value.
How do I get my parking passes? Will there be enough parking passes for me?
You will get parking instructions with all your arrival information. When parking passes are required, they will be left in the property for you.
How do I get into my condo/house?
We will text and email you the unit’s guestbook & door code a few days prior to your arrival. The guestbook link will give you any and all information you could want about your unit and the local area.
Can I check-in early?
Check-in is at 4 PM. Some units may be eligible for early check-in at 1 PM for a small additional fee, based on availability. If you arrive early, feel free to explore the area or relax at the beach while you wait!
How do I get a late check-out?
Some units may qualify for a late checkout at 1 PM for a small additional fee.
PLEASE NOTE: This is subject to availability and must be requested by 6 AM on the day of departure.
Can I get more toilet paper, towels, foil, etc.?
Unlike hotels, vacation rental condos offer starter supplies only—just enough for the first few days of your stay. This includes items like 2 rolls of toilet paper, 1 roll of paper towels, and basic toiletries. Most units have in-unit laundry, and there are several nearby stores for anything additional you may need. Please note: no seasonings or pantry items are provided.
We arrived early, can we still use the pool or go to the beach?
Guests staying at a condo with a pool may begin using the pool and beach amenities any time on their arrival day through their departure date. If you’ve rented a house with a private pool, access begins at your scheduled check-in time.
The sliding doors are so hard to open! Why?
Beach properties are required to have hurricane grade sliding doors to sustain winds up to 135 mph, so they can be a little harder to open.
I have a large vehicle, what is the parking garage height?
If your unit has a parking garage, that information is provided under parking information in your pre-arrival information.
How do I use beach service?
If your property includes beach service, simply check in with the beach attendant, let them know you’re with Sugar Palm Vacation Rentals, and share your condo number, they’ll take care of the rest! Please note, not all properties offer beach service, and when available, it’s provided from March 1st through October 31st.
The Beach Service includes 2 chairs and 1 umbrella. I have my own chairs and an extra umbrella. Is that okay to bring down to the beach?
Of course!
