San Jose del Cabo, Mexico
______________________________________________________________________________
This Vacation Rental Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between Homeowner/Let’s Do Mexico (“Homeowner/Agent”) and individual named on the reservation (“Guest”) as of the date set forth on the date the booking was made. For good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
Property:
The property is located at: México 1 Km 28, Tourist Corridor, Costa Azul, San José del Cabo, B.C.S.
The property is furnished and includes all furnishings and amenities provided within the unit. Entire unit has been photographed for condition and inventory purposes. Please see the Inventory Checklist attached as "Exhibit A".
Maximum Occupancy:
The maximum number of guests is limited to four (4) persons in B-501, two (2) persons in B-504 and six (6) persons in B-505.
Term of the Rental:
The rental begins at 3:00pm on first day of your reservation (the “Check-in Date”) and ends at 11:00am on the last day of your reservation (the “Check-out Date”). Reservation dates are the dates you chose within the Reservation Key system.
HOA Rules:
Guest agrees to abide by the HOA Rules attached as "Exhibit B" at all times while at the property, and shall cause all members of the rental party and anyone else Guest permits on the property to abide by the following rules at all times while on the property. Any breaking of these rules may lead to a fine and Guest is responsible to pay the full amount.
Parking:
One (1) vehicle is permitted per condo and vehicle must be parked in designated parking spot. Any illegally parked cars are subject to towing - applicable fines/towing fees are the sole responsibility of the Guest/vehicle owner.
Housekeeping:
While linens and bath towels are included in the unit, daily maid service is not included in the rental rate. However, it is available upon request at an additional rate. We do not permit bath towels or linens to be taken from the unit, but we provide beach towels, which can be used while visiting the pool or beach.
Smoking:
Smoking is NOT allowed inside property at any time. Smoking is allowed outside only. It is Homeowners preference that no smoking occurs on the balcony of the unit, but rather on the grounds away from the condo. If any smoking does take place on the balcony, Guest agrees to ensure the sliding doors are completely closed until smoking materials are completely extinguished.
Maintenance and Repair:
The Guest shall maintain the property in good, clean condition and use the premise in only a careful and lawful manner. The Guest shall leave the premise in a well-maintained condition at the expiration of the rental agreement, defined by the landlord as being habitable for future guests. Guest will pay for maintenance and repairs should the premise be left in a lesser condition. The Guest agrees that the landlord shall deduct costs of said services from the security deposit prior to refund if Guest causes damage to the premises or its furnishings.
Guest is responsible for any missing or damaged item(s) in the condo. If anything is damaged, stolen or misplaced, Homeowner will bill Guest for the cost of the item, plus the cost of the shipping fee (28% the cost of the item) and a $25.00 service charge to cover all additional expenses.
Access:
Guest shall allow Homeowner access to the property for purposes of repair and inspections. Homeowner shall exercise this right of access in a reasonable manner.
Garbage:
Any garbage must be stowed in the proper garbage or recycling receptacle, which are located in the parking lot near the fence. Tenants are cautioned to not leave trash out as it attracts bugs and animals into the condo.
Water and Plumbing:
Guest shall not put ANY foreign item(s) (e.g., tampons, napkins, hair, gum, etc.) except toilet paper in toilet. Guest shall not allow any foreign matter down the drains (e.g., hair, food, etc.). If it is found that foreign objects have been flushed and clog the system, Guest will be charged for the repairs.
Travel Insurance:
We highly recommend that Guest purchases travel insurance and that insurance is purchased as early as possible when making vacation plans. In instances of Acts of God (e.g. hurricane, tropical storm, earthquake, tsunami, Covid-19, etc.), our cancellation policy will be followed and Guest will need to plan on Travel Insurance Coverage for reimbursement. A few good resources for travel insurance are Travel Insurance (https://bit.ly/3HI6ooZ), Travel Guard (https://www.travelguard.com) and SquareMouth (https://www.squaremouth.com).
Early Check-in / Late Check-out
Check-in time is any time after 3 pm and check-out time is at 11 am. For early check-ins or late check-outs, there will be a $50 fee if there is availability.
