❗️Important Considerations... let's be sure Reflections is the right fit for you and your group:
1. Rental Agreement: Must sign agreement & provide ID within 48 hours of booking (or immediately if arrival is within 48 hours). Failure to sign will result in cancelation with applicable cancelation penalties.
2. Occupancy: Max 8 persons at the home at any given time, including non-overnight guests staying more than 15 minutes (per City of Cocoa Beach ordinance). Persons = adults, children & infants.
3. Minimum Age: Booking guest must be age 21+ (or active military) & occupant of the Property.
4. Transportation: Vehicle recommended although area is walkable & bikeable. Max 4 vehicles, including trailers in the driveway. NO street or grass parking.
5. Pool & Spa / Hot Tub: Pool- Pool heat complimentary December- March (additional months available for added fee). Heat set to 88°F, runs up to 8 hours/ day. Pool temperature typically increases 15–20°F above the coldest outdoor temperature of the day. EX: if coldest temperature is 50°F, pool may reach approximately 65-70°F. Weather conditions are beyond our control, and during cooler periods, pool heating may be limited. Even at temperature, a heated pool may still feel cool and is usually warmest by early to mid-afternoon. Spa / Hot Tub- this site uses the terms spa and hot tub interchangeably. This amenity is an attached spa, not a standalone hot tub. The spa is set to 100°F and typically heats to 95- 100°F, but is not designed to reach or maintain levels of a standalone hot tub. Heating takes approximately 30–60 minutes. Pool and spa temperatures may vary and may not always reach set temperatures, particularly during cooler weather. No refunds are provided for dissatisfaction with pool or spa heat. Please see the house rules section of our listing/ rental agreement for additional pool and spa details.
6. Fencing: Backyard is fully fenced on 3 sides/ around the perimeter of the home but no fencing along canal (see photos). Use extreme caution with young children & dogs. Pool, dock, patio & backyard are visible to neighbors on other side of canal or next-door.

8. Saturday check-ins/checkouts: not available.
9. Pet Policy: DOGS ONLY. NO CATS or any other pets/ reptiles. Well-behaved, potty-trained dogs welcome with non-refundable fee of $25/ night/ dog (if not selected at time of booking, will be requested post booking). Must register in advance. See rental agreement for additional notes re: pet policies, including service animals.
10. Nature and Pests: Expect bugs in Florida. While we take precautions to prevent critters from entering the home, occasional encounters are inevitable.
