Padre Escapes Vacation Rental Policies

Padre Escapes Vacation Rental Policies

RESERVATIONS: Receipt of 25% of the total reservation is required to hold a reservation. The final balance is due 14 days prior to arrival. A refundable cash security deposit may be required during holidays and spring break or at Padre Escapes` discretion. 

CHECK-IN/OUT: Check-in and check-out instructions will be included with your reservation confirmation. Check-in time starts at 4:00pm. If a property is ready for early check-in Padre Escapes will notify you via text message. We never know what may happen prior to a guest`s arrival so early check-ins are not guaranteed. Check-out time is 11:00am. You may arrange for a late check-out, if available, for a fee of $25/hour. Any guest staying past 2:00pm will be charged for an additional day of rent.

CANCELLATION POLICY: We require 25% down at the time the reservation is made. Reservations cancelled 14 days or more prior to arrival will receive a full refund minus a $50 cancellation fee and tax. Cancellations made 14 days or less prior to check-in will result in full forfeiture of payments made. Applicable refunds will only be issued to the guest by the same form in which it was made, even if a credit card has since expired or canceled. The above applies to moving dates or switching units as well. We recommend that the guest purchase CSA Travel Protection. There are no refunds for early departures or late arrivals. If a guest does not show up for their stay the total amount paid is non-refundable.

PAYMENT: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, AMEX, cash or checks are accepted. A valid credit card is required if paying cash. The credit card used to make payment must be present at check-in along with a matching valid driver`s license. Make checks payable to Padre Escapes. If paying your final balance by check, it must be received 14 days prior to check in.

OCCUPANCY LIMITS: Occupancy limits are posted on our web site and confirmed at time of reservation. If guest exceeds the occupancy limits agreed upon at the time of the reservation, the guest will be asked to leave without a refund. Exceptions to the occupancy limit are only made for infants under the age of two with prior approval. Additional visitors must also be pre-approved by Padre Escapes.

AGE REQUIREMENT: Contracting guests of Padre Escapes must be 25 years of age or older. The guest must have a State Driver`s License or other acceptable ID. Padre Escapes reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.

In addition, there is also a pet-cleaning fee of $50 for stays of 7 days or less, $75 for stays of 8-29 days and $100 for stays of 30+ days.

All pets must be leashed at all times when at the beach or outside of the home. Pets must meet the guidelines set for that property or complex, such as weight limit, type or maximum number of pets. If an unreported pet or a pet that exceeds the guidelines is found to be staying in a property, the guest will be charged $500.00 and be asked to leave without a refund.

PROPERTY CONDITION: All of the vacation rental properties are individually owned. Each property reflects the taste of each owner.

However they are subject to errors or omissions and we cannot be held responsible for change of content and/or features, or removal by owner without notice.

One bath towel and one wash cloth will be provided for the maximum occupancy of the unit. One hand towel will be provided in each bathroom. All towels and linens provided in the unit are accounted for.

These items include a sponge, bath soap, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper and trash bags. These items will not be replenished during your stay. Do not remove anything from the property. Do not take items from one property to another. This includes bath towels provided by Padre Escapes. These are not to be used at the pool or beach either. Each property is inspected (with an itemized list) upon departure. Anything missing from the property will be charged to the credit card on file for the stay.

We apologize for any inconvenience that may result. We have no control over these situations and are not able to issue relocations or refunds. 

NEIGHBORS: No loud music or parties outside of the property after 10pm. Please respect your neighbors as you would in your own neighborhood.

Guests are welcome to smoke on the patios or decks outside. If the property is unusually dirty, the guest will be charged a $30 per hour cleaning fee, charged to your credit card.

Any forgotten items must be retrieved within 10 days or they will be donated to a local charity. 

BOATS: Boat ramp passes are required to use the Padre Isles boat ramps. Boat ramp parking permit stickers cannot be purchased for any non-member of the Property Owners Association. Trailer parking is not available at the majority of complexes; Padre Escapes does have two reserved parking spaces at a local storage complex that can be used for trailer parking for $25/stay (short-term stays only). They are available on a first come, first use basis and cannot be guaranteed.

HEATED POOLS: Several complexes have seasonally heated pools. This means the pools will be heated in the winter months to maintain a maximum temperature of 83 degrees. Pool temperatures cannot be changed to accommodate personal preferences.  

MAINTENANCE: All Padre Escapes properties are located on Padre Island and experience harsher than normal wear and tear due to the constant exposure to our environment. Maintenance issues and mechanical failures are rare and unfortunate and we regret any inconvenience that may result. However we have no control over these situations and are not able to relocate or refund guests for issues with air conditioners, elevators, dishwashers, refrigerators, washers, dryers, cable or satellite TV, internet access, electricity, DVD players, swimming pools, hot tubs, or any other appliances or amenities. Please report any inoperative equipment or concerns as they occur and we will make every effort to resolve the problem as soon as possible.
