Unreal Views Apartment in Coconut Grove

MIAMI VACATION RENTALS - SHORT-TERM RENTAL AGREEMENT & HOUSE RULES Important: By booking and/or making payment, the Guest agrees to all terms and conditions in this Agreement. This Agreement must be signed (or otherwise accepted) before check-in in accordance with platform rules and Florida law. The most important rule is to relax and enjoy your stay, but please also take care of the property and respect the neighbors as outlined below.

Welcome, and thank you for choosing our property! These House Rules and Short-Term Rental Agreement are designed to ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for every Guest, protect the property, and maintain good relations with neighbors. Each guideline is based on past experiences, local regulations, and building policies. By confirming your reservation, you agree to comply with these rules throughout your stay. We kindly ask for your full cooperation, and in return, we trust you will find your stay pleasant, worry-free, and memorable.

- No parties or loud gatherings are allowed under any circumstances. - No smoking or vaping of any substance (tobacco, marijuana, etc.) anywhere in the building or unit. - Keep balcony doors closed at all times to prevent humidity damage to walls and ceilings. - Do not block curtains or tamper with any safety devices or equipment in the unit. - If the unit has a dividing door (for adjoining suites), please leave it open unless you have booked both sides; if closed, a neighbor could accidentally enter the wrong room. - Most importantly, relax and enjoy your stay, and make yourself at home while abiding by these rules.

Check-in is after 4:00 P.M. and check-out is by 11:00 A.M. (local time). If you require flexibility, please contact us in advance and we will do our best to accommodate (additional fees for early check-in or late check-out may apply). Our housekeeping team arrives promptly at 11:00 A.M. on check-out day to prepare for the next guest, so please depart on time or arrange an approved late check-out.

Payment for the full cost of your stay (including nightly rate, taxes, cleaning fee, deposit, resort or association fees if applicable, and any other charges) is due in full before arrival. We accept major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express) or ACH transfers. For special services or add-ons (e.g. Pack 'n Play, high chair, rollaway bed, extra cleaning, or coffee packages), request them first so our team can confirm availability. Once confirmed, you can pay through the SuiteOps guide app. Credit Card Verification: During the SuiteOps check-in process, the original credit card used for the reservation will be verified against the primary booker's details. The verified card will also be used for any add-ons or special services requested, once availability is confirmed.

We offer two options to cover potential damages. Select your preferred option at the beginning of your reservation, prior to check-in. Option 1: Refundable Security Deposit A refundable deposit of $1,000 will be held on your credit card at the start of your reservation, before you enter the unit. It will be refunded in full after check-out, provided there are no damages beyond normal wear and tear. Option 2: Damage Waiver Fee - Single Fee: A non-refundable $50 damage waiver fee is payable during the check-in process, before you enter the unit. - Coverage: Covers accidental damages up to $500, such as minor spills, small furniture dings, or broken glassware. - Exclusions: The waiver does not cover damages exceeding $500 or those caused by negligence, misuse, or intentional acts such as unauthorized parties or improper appliance use. Losses or damages to non-covered items such as parking passes, key fobs, or amenity cards are not included and will incur separate replacement fees.

The Guest expressly authorizes Miami Vacation Rentals (M.V.R.) to charge their credit card for cancellation penalties, early check-in fees, late check-out fees, replacements, damages, or loss fees as set forth in this Agreement. Damages to the property or stolen goods will be charged accordingly. For missing goods, the Guest authorizes a charge of 150% of their value. Any damages or issues with the unit must be communicated to the Host upon arrival or no later than noon on the next day.

Cancellations are permitted up to 30 days before arrival (or according to the cancellation policy on your booking platform, if different). Approved cancellations are subject only to a 3.5% administration fee to cover credit card processing. Within 30 days of arrival, the reservation is non-refundable and the total amount of this contract will be charged. There will be no refunds for shortened stays due to late arrival or early departure, weather conditions, medical or family emergencies, or any other reason, except to the extent that a booking platform's extenuating circumstance policy or applicable law requires a refund. For monthly rentals or longer stays, the same 30-day policy applies. If a long-term guest departs early or changes plans after check-in, the unused portion of the stay is non-refundable. In the rare event that the Host must cancel a booking (e.g. emergency repair or other force majeure), we will notify you as soon as possible and provide a full refund (or assist in relocating you to a comparable accommodation if you prefer). We abide by the cancellation terms of the OTA platform used for your booking and any applicable extenuating circumstances policies.

Our property is located in a residential building with its own rules, strictly enforced by building management and security. Guests must comply with all applicable local laws and building rules, including those for noise, occupancy, parking, waste disposal, and use of common areas. If a Guest or any member of their party fails to follow the house rules or building regulations and is required to leave by the Host or building security, no refund or compensation will be issued. Proper Behavior and Noise: Guests are expected to conduct themselves in a civilized manner at all times and be mindful of noise levels, especially in hallways and common areas. Quiet hours are from 10:00 P.M. to 8:00 A.M., during which noise should be kept to a minimum inside the unit and on balconies/patios (a courtesy and a local legal requirement). Loud music, shouting, or any disturbance that could disturb neighbors is prohibited at any time. Failure to comply may result in intervention by building security or police and eviction for breach of contract. The Guest will be responsible for any fines or penalties imposed by local authorities or the condo association due to noise or misconduct by the Guest or their visitors. No Illegal Activity: Any illegal, unsafe, or disturbing activities are prohibited, including (but not limited to) the use or possession of illegal drugs, underage drinking, solicitation or commercial activities, and the use of firearms or weapons on the premises. No illicit or hazardous materials may be brought onto the property. Any violation will result in immediate eviction and, if appropriate, referral to law enforcement. Compliance with Laws: Both Host and Guest will comply with all applicable local, state, and federal laws, including Miami-Dade County short-term rental regulations and anti-discrimination laws (e.g. ordinances on trash disposal, noise/nuisance, maximum occupancy, pets, fire/safety codes, and laws protecting tenants and neighbors from harassment or discrimination). Guests confirm that their rental will not violate any law or association rule. Registered sexual offenders or sexual predators are prohibited from transient occupancy by local law; by booking, you confirm that no member of your party is such an offender, in compliance with Miami-Dade County Code.

- Trash Disposal: Tie all routine trash securely in plastic bags and deposit it into the trash chute on each floor (the trash room is between apartment lines 06 and 08, close to the elevators). Never leave garbage bags or loose trash in hallways or outside the unit door. - Oversized Items: Break down large cardboard boxes. Do NOT force oversized boxes or large items down the trash chute (this causes clogs). Take them to the designated dumpsters in the parking garage (contact us or the front desk for directions). - Prohibited Waste: Do not dispose of liquids, flammable materials, or lit cigarettes/cigars in the trash chute. This is a non-smoking building, so no cigarette waste should be generated. - No Littering: Trash, dirty linens, or towels must never be left in common areas, hallways, or on balconies. Follow any posted recycling guidelines. Keep the unit reasonably tidy and avoid attracting pests (e.g. do not leave food out uncovered).

During Stay: Please treat the space with respect and use appliances and furniture as intended. If a spill happens, clean it promptly to prevent stains or damage. Do not use towels or linens for cleaning up spills, removing makeup, etc. (extra charges may apply for irreparably stained linens). Only use dye-free, powder-free detergents in the washer (if unsure, use what we provided). Before Checkout: Please (a) wash any used dishes or load and start the dishwasher (if available), (b) dispose of trash in the trash chute, (c) place used towels in one pile (you do not need to strip beds), and (d) double-check for personal belongings. You do not need to make beds or do heavy cleaning - just leave the unit reasonably picked-up. Excessive Dirtiness: If the unit at checkout requires more than normal cleaning (e.g. deep stains, foul odors, piles of trash, excessive mess), an additional deep cleaning fee of $150 up to $500 may be charged. Normal use is expected - normal amounts of sand or a few dishes are fine. We only charge if there is abuse of the space or extreme neglect. Damage or Breakage: If something breaks or is damaged, please inform us as soon as possible, even if minor. Accidents happen; prompt communication is appreciated and minor issues can often be resolved amicably. Significant damage or missing items will be charged as described in the Damage Policy and Damage Charges sections.

The maximum number of guests allowed is specified in your booking. Under no circumstances may occupancy exceed that number. If more guests are found in the unit than authorized, the extra persons will be required to leave, and the registered Guest may be evicted immediately without a refund. In compliance with Miami-Dade County regulations, occupancy is further limited to no more than 2 persons per bedroom plus 2 additional persons for the entire property (excluding children under 3), and never more than 12 persons total. Visitors: Visitors (people not included in the reservation guest count) are only allowed with prior Host approval and must follow all house rules. No unregistered person may stay overnight. The total number of people at the property at any time (including visitors) must not exceed the maximum occupancy. All visitors must be accompanied by a registered Guest. Amenities (pool, gym, etc.) are for Guests and registered visitors only. Unauthorized people, undeclared guests, or pets will be considered a violation and may result in immediate termination of the stay without refund. Minimum Age: The person making the reservation must be at least 23 years old and is the responsible signing Guest. We do not rent to minors without a parent/guardian present. Reservations made under false pretenses (e.g. someone under 23 booking with another person's identity) are subject to cancellation and eviction without refund.

To comply with building regulations, local laws, and safety requirements, all guests must complete a mandatory pre check-in registration process prior to arrival. Valid government-issued photo identification is required for the primary booker. Accepted forms include, but are not limited to: passport, driver's license, or government-issued national or state ID. To verify the authenticity of the identification, guests may also be required to submit a real-time selfie. This is used solely to confirm that the person completing the registration matches the ID submitted and to help prevent fraud, unauthorized access, and identity misuse. All registration steps, including ID upload and selfie verification, are completed securely through our check-in system (SuiteOps). The information is used exclusively for identity verification, guest registration, building access authorization, fraud prevention, and compliance purposes, and is handled in accordance with applicable privacy, data protection, and consumer protection laws. Failure to complete the registration process or provide the requested identification and verification prior to check-in may result in delayed or denied access to the property, and may lead to cancellation of the reservation in accordance with the applicable cancellation policy and booking platform rules. By confirming the reservation, the Guest agrees to comply with this requirement.

- Parking Assignments: Park only in the designated areas for short-term rentals, typically the unassigned yellow spaces on floors 4 and 5 (do not park in any spot marked with a resident's name or unit number). Studios and one-bedroom units are allowed one (1) vehicle. Two-bedroom units or combined units (e.g. connected 1BR+Studio suites) may have up to two (2) vehicles. Vehicles must not exceed 7 feet in height (garage clearance). - Garage Access: There are two garage entrances: one via the hotel's main entrance on McFarlane Road and another via Grand Avenue. On arrival, you may temporarily pull into the valet/loading area while checking in. The front desk will provide a garage access keycard that also works for the elevators. Keep it with you to enter and exit the garage and building. - Parking Violations: Miami Vacation Rentals is not responsible for towing or tickets from incorrect parking. Do not park in handicap spots without a valid permit, do not block vehicles or fire lanes, and abide by posted signage. If unsure, ask us or the front desk. - Vehicle Safety: Lock your car and do not leave valuables in plain sight. The Host is not responsible for theft or damage to vehicles on the property.

Pets are not permitted in this building under the Master Association rules. Only permanent residents are allowed to have small pets. Emotional support animals are not permitted for vacation rentals. If a Guest is found with an unauthorized pet, they may be asked to leave immediately without refund.

Any reservation obtained under false pretenses (including a false name, age, number of occupants, pets, or purpose of stay) will result in complete forfeiture of all payments and deposits, and the party will not be permitted to check in or will be evicted immediately. For example, if you book for 2 people but 6 show up, or book a "quiet family trip" but plan a party, this Agreement is breached. Excessive occupancy or undeclared persons or pets also voids this Agreement without refund. We reserve the right to cancel or refuse check-in if fraud is suspected. If your group or plans change after booking, communicate it and get written approval in advance.

Subletting or leasing the apartment to another person, or assigning this Agreement to another party, is strictly prohibited. The person making the reservation must be present for the duration of the stay, unless we agree in writing to an exception (such as a reservation made for a family member). You may not rent this unit on someone else's behalf or list it on another platform. Violations will result in cancellation or eviction with no refund and potential reporting to the booking platform. If you are booking for a third party (e.g. an employer booking for an employee), let us know in advance and ensure all adult guests sign this Agreement.

Rates are subject to change without notice but will not change once full payment has been made.

Rates include a one-time linen and towel setup. Bed linens and towels are provided for the number of guests, and extra sets of sheets and towels are located in the closet. Guests may request additional linens or towels for free through the front desk or by contacting customer service via the booking platform. Please do not remove our linens or towels from the unit (if you need beach towels or extra items, ask us and we will try to provide them). We provide an initial supply of toiletries and amenities: body wash, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, hand soap (refillable bottles), coffee (2 regular and 2 decaf), sugar (8), cream (8), dishwasher tablets (2), liquid dish detergent (1), laundry tablets (2), kitchen paper towels (1), sponge (1), toilet paper (4 per bathroom), bottled water (2 per fridge), and garbage bags (2 extra). These items are intended to last only the first 24 to 48 hours. Guests are responsible for additional supplies beyond the initial stock, or may contact the Host to purchase more. Coffee boxes of 10 units are available for sale and can be mixed as desired.

There is no daily maid service included in your stay. Mid-stay cleaning can be arranged for an additional fee (subject to availability). Approximate rates for a full cleaning: $70 for a studio/hotel room, $90 for a studio, $110 for a one-bedroom (1-2 bath), $140 for a two-bedroom (2-2.5 bath), and $160 for a three-bedroom (3 bath). Please contact us to schedule and pay for any mid-stay cleanings.

Smoking/Vaping: This is a 100% smoke-free property. Smoking, vaping, or burning of any substance (including tobacco, marijuana, e-cigarettes, hookahs, incense, candles, etc.) is strictly prohibited inside the unit, on the balcony, and in all common areas. Tampering with smoke detectors is a serious offense and will result in eviction and fines. If any evidence of smoking is found (smoke odor, ashes, burns, etc.), or if tampering with detectors is detected, the Guest will incur a $500 penalty plus additional fees for smoke remediation if necessary. Parties/Events: Parties, events, or large gatherings are NOT allowed. The reservation is for quiet enjoyment by the confirmed guests only. Any loud or disruptive gathering, or any event where the number of people exceeds the authorized occupancy, is an unauthorized party and will result in immediate eviction of all guests and visitors. The Guest will forfeit all payments and deposits and will be charged a $500 penalty (at minimum), plus any extra cleaning or damages caused. The property is equipped with measures to detect noise and occupancy, and neighbors will alert management if disturbances occur. Zero tolerance on parties.

We strive to provide all amenities in good working order, but occasionally issues arise. All appliances and utilities (A/C, TV, internet, kitchen appliances, etc.) are provided as-is with no guarantee of 100% operation. If something malfunctions, notify us and we will make best efforts to repair or replace it as quickly as possible. No refunds or discounts will be given for mechanical failures or service interruptions outside the Host's control (e.g. HVAC breakdown, cable or internet outage), or for external factors like building maintenance, construction noise, or utility outages. If any essential service (A/C, water, electricity) is not functioning, we will work to remedy it as fast as possible. - Air Conditioning: Keep doors and windows closed when the A/C is running to avoid overloading the system and causing condensation. Do not set the thermostat below 70F, as it can cause the unit to freeze up. If the A/C is not cooling properly, let us know - do not attempt to repair it yourself. - Washer/Dryer: Units with in-unit laundry have a washer and dryer for your use; other units can use the coin-operated laundry room on the 6th floor. Follow machine instructions and do not overload. We are not responsible for damage to or loss of clothing or personal items in laundry facilities. - Wi-Fi and TV: Complimentary Wi-Fi and basic TV service are provided; the network name and password will be provided at check-in. Service reliability depends on the local provider and outages or slowdowns cannot be guaranteed against. TVs have Xfinity cable with local channels and smart TV capabilities (or a Roku/Fire Stick). You may log in to your own streaming services, but please log out before departure; the Host is not responsible for charges or privacy issues if you forget. - Pay-Per-View / On-Demand Purchases: Any on-demand purchases (movies, events) made through our TV service will incur a $100 charge (purchase cost plus an inconvenience fee), which you agree we may charge to your card. - Remote Controls: Please leave all TV and A/C remotes in the unit upon checkout. Missing remotes will incur a replacement fee. - Elevator Keycards/Fobs: Your keycard grants access to the elevator and certain amenities. Return all keycards at check-out (each missing card is $50 to replace). - Maintenance: If any appliance or fixture is not working, please contact us. By agreeing to this contract, you authorize us and/or building staff to access the unit to perform necessary repairs or maintenance, scheduled at a convenient time when possible.

- Authorized Users: Only registered Guests and their registered visitors may use the pool and hot tub.

Use a towel on lounge chairs if wearing sunscreen or oil. No spitting or spouting water; take children for frequent bathroom breaks. - Closures: The pool or hot tub may be closed for maintenance or private events. Use of these amenities is not guaranteed, and closures do not entitle the Guest to any refund or concession.

The fitness center and spa (if available) are typically open 6:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. daily (hours may vary). - Authorized Users: For Guests and their immediate family only. Registered visitors may use the facilities only when accompanied by the hosting Guest.

The Host and association are not responsible for lost or stolen property.

When using lounges, business centers, rooftop decks, or other common areas, be respectful of others, keep noise to a minimum, clean up after yourself, and follow posted guidelines. Quiet hours also apply outdoors (no loud noise after 10 P.M.). Items left unattended may be removed by staff.

The front desk generally will not send delivery people up unannounced.

Office hours are 10:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M.; non-urgent issues will be handled during these hours. For any life-threatening or critical emergency, call 911 immediately. For urgent property issues outside office hours (e.g. plumbing leak, power outage), contact us and we will make our best effort to assist (we have staff on-call for true emergencies, though response times may vary). For building-wide emergencies (fire alarms, etc.), follow the emergency exit instructions posted on the unit door. Nearby hospitals include Jackson Memorial and Mercy Hospital in Coconut Grove. A fire extinguisher is provided in the unit (usually under the kitchen sink or by the entryway). Smoke detectors are installed for your safety; do not disable them (security is notified if they are tampered with). If a smoke alarm sounds, evacuate and call 911 if needed.

- Check-Out Inspection: The unit will be inspected after check-out. Any damage, missing items, or extraordinary cleaning needs will be documented with photos and you will be notified. By accepting this Agreement, you consent to such documented post-checkout charges. - Host Right of Entry: The Host (and building management/maintenance) may enter the unit to address emergencies or perform necessary maintenance. We will always knock and try to notify you beforehand, and schedule non-emergency maintenance in advance when possible. In an emergency with immediate threat to life or property (e.g. water leak, fire, or welfare check) where you cannot be reached or are unresponsive, the Host may enter without prior consent, limited to resolving the issue. - Local Ordinances: The property is a licensed short-term rental in Miami-Dade County (Certificate of Use posted inside the unit). The Guest agrees not to do anything that would put the Host in violation of local laws. Any fines issued due to the Guest's actions (noise violations, illegal parking, etc.) will be charged to the Guest. - Additional Services: Additional paid services (extra cleaning, equipment rentals, etc.) must be paid upfront and are non-refundable once provided. Custom requests will be quoted case-by-case. - Property Rules & Manuals: Please review the house manual or digital guidebook upon arrival (Wi-Fi, appliance instructions, local tips, etc.). Its instructions are considered part of these house rules. - Owner's Closets/Areas: Locked cabinets or closets are for owner use and off-limits. Tampering with them will result in damage charges and possible eviction. - Community Respect: Be courteous with neighbors and building staff. Harassment of residents or staff, or behavior that creates a hostile environment, is grounds for eviction. - Written Exceptions: Any exception to these policies must be approved in writing (text/email is fine) in advance by the Host. Verbal agreements are not binding. No such approval waives our right to enforce all other provisions (e.g. if we allow a pet as an exception, parties are still not allowed).

Guest's Responsibility: Guests use the property and its amenities at their own risk. The Guest assumes all liability for any harm, injury, loss, or damage to themselves or their invitees resulting from activities or use of amenities on the premises, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Host. All minors in the group must be supervised by an adult at all times. Indemnification: Guests agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Host and Miami Vacation Rentals (and their owners, agents, and employees) from any and all claims or liability arising out of the Guest's (or their invitees') use of the premises, including personal injury, property damage or loss, theft, or vandalism, and any claims from neighbors or third parties due to the Guest's actions (e.g. damage to a neighboring unit, or fines for noise or ordinance violations), including attorney fees and costs incurred in defense of any such claim. Personal Property: The Guest's personal property (including vehicles) is not insured by the Host and is kept on the premises at the Guest's sole risk. Any insurance the Host or owner may carry does not cover the Guest's belongings or personal injuries. Guests are encouraged to obtain their own travel/renters insurance. The Host is not responsible for loss or damage to valuables, cash, jewelry, electronics, or other items. Amenities and Condition: The Host does not assume liability for the condition of roads, driveways, walkways, stairways, railings, furnishings, or other areas, but will make efforts to maintain them in safe condition. Notify us immediately of any potentially dangerous condition. By using an area or item, you assume the risk of that use. Acts of God: The Guest shall not hold the Host liable for any temporary defect or stoppage in public utilities (water, electricity, gas, internet), nor for loss or damage caused by natural conditions (flooding, storms, hurricanes, or other natural disasters). If an official evacuation order or a government prohibition on short-term rentals is issued during your stay, we will follow the law regarding refunds or cancellations (which may supersede our cancellation policy). Otherwise, no refunds will be given for inclement weather. Prosecution for Damage/Theft: Miami Vacation Rentals reserves the right to pursue civil and/or criminal remedies against any guest who causes willful damage, theft, or vandalism to the unit or building. The unit is equipped with an inventory of items and some security measures to track these issues.

Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Host (Miami Vacation Rentals) and the Guest and supersedes any prior oral or written agreements or representations. No amendment is valid unless in writing and signed by both parties (except reasonable house rule updates as noted below). House Rule Updates: We may update these House Rules to comply with new laws or platform policies. Guests will be notified of substantial changes affecting their stay. The version in effect at the time of booking (or any updated version accepted by the Guest) governs the reservation. Governing Law and Venue: This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any disputes shall be brought in the courts of Miami-Dade County, Florida. The Guest consents to the jurisdiction of Florida courts and waives any objection to jurisdiction or venue. Non-Florida residents agree that Florida has personal jurisdiction over them for any disputes related to this rental. Service of Process: The Guest designates the Florida Secretary of State as an agent for service of process for any civil action the Host may file in connection with this Agreement. The Guest retains the right to contest jurisdiction only on grounds unrelated to service. The Guest also grants Miami Vacation Rentals a limited power of attorney to execute a waiver of personal service on behalf of the Guest, solely for the purpose of accepting service of process. Attorney's Fees and Costs: In any dispute or legal action arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees and costs from the non-prevailing party, including before, during, and after litigation and on appeal. This explicitly covers fees related to credit card chargebacks - if the Host successfully disputes a chargeback or otherwise prevails, the Guest will owe all associated costs and fees to the extent allowed by law. Credit Card Chargebacks: Chargebacks are not an appropriate method of pursuing a refund; we will always work with you in good faith to resolve billing disputes. The Guest acknowledges that filing a false or meritless chargeback after staying at the property constitutes fraud and breach of contract. In the event of an unfounded or frivolous chargeback, the Guest agrees to pay liquidated damages of $2,500 to Miami Vacation Rentals, in addition to reimbursing chargeback amounts, bank fees, and attorney's fees/costs. This clause does not apply to a legitimate bank error or identity theft issue. Recoverable Costs: Other expenses incurred in enforcing this Agreement or collecting amounts due are also recoverable, including costs of investigation, travel to attend court, expert witness or consultant fees, court filing fees, mediation or arbitration fees, postage and service of process, and other reasonable expenses. Waiver: The Host's failure to enforce any provision shall not be construed as a waiver of that or any other provision, or of any subsequent breach. Severability: If any part of this Agreement is found illegal or unenforceable, it shall be stricken only to the narrowest extent necessary and the rest remains in full force and effect. Host's Remedies: If the Guest breaches this Agreement, the Host reserves all legal and equitable remedies, including retaining the security deposit, charging the Guest's credit card for damages or fines, eviction, and reporting the Guest to the booking platform, which may result in the Guest's account being reviewed or removed. Jurisdiction-Specific Disclosures: This building is equipped with fire alarms and sprinkler systems. Guests should familiarize themselves with the exit route posted on the unit door. Miami-Dade County Certificate of Use No. ______ is displayed in the unit. Acknowledgment and Acceptance: By booking this property (and again by checking in), the Guest certifies that they have read and understood this Short-Term Rental Agreement and House Rules and agree to abide by all conditions herein. Violating these rules may result in fees, eviction, and/or legal action. If you have any questions, please contact us before confirming your booking or at any time during your stay. Thank you for your cooperation. We truly appreciate your choosing our property for your Miami visit, and we hope you have a 5-star experience. Enjoy your stay!
