Please note we have a strict cancellation policy. All rentals, regardless of booking source, must sign a rental and liability waiver agreement before booking is confirmed.
We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance for your stay—because even the best-laid plans can change.
For Airbnb: A quick note on who you are paying for what, because lately everyone asks some version of who am I paying for what and to who. We set two things. One. The nightly rate for the home itself which we keep as fair as possible for this area. Two. The cleaning fee matches what our professional cleaning company charges to clean and reset a home this size. Those are the only amounts we control. Airbnb collects its own platform service fee for using the Airbnb site and support. Airbnb may include that platform fee in the total price you see here instead of showing it as a separate line which can make it look like it is part of what we charge. It is not. That amount goes to Airbnb. You will also see taxes as a separate line. Those taxes are required by state and local rules for this area. We do not set the tax rates, and we do not keep those funds. Airbnb calls this “fee transparency”.
Sunset Haven Compound is perfect for large groups that want their own spaces and want to split the costs. Why stay in a chain when you can have your own kitchens, fantastic amenities, 4 minute walk to the beach, and more for less money than those places with the paper thin walls crowded in next to strangers...
