Booking Confirmations & Cancellations

If booking more than ten (10) weeks in advance, we accept a 50% deposit to hold a reservation, at which time a date will be arranged for the payment of the balance.

For bookings made less than ten (10)weeks in advance, full payment, by either check or credit card is due before arrival. Your reservation is NOT confirmed until your full payment is processed.

If you find you need to cancel your reservation with us at any time for any reason, it may not be possible for us to re-rent the home or unit. Your full payment, less a $100 booking fee, will only be refunded upon re-booking of same dates, same length of stay, and same or greater rental rate. While we make every effort to rebook your dates, please let us know as soon as possible in the event of a cancellation so we can open the dates for someone else.

Security Deposit

An authorized credit card (Visa or MC) is required as a security hold. No additional fees will be charged if all rental terms and conditions are adhered to.

Occupancy Limitations

The number of guests that will occupy your rental must be stated at the time of booking as each rental has specific occupancy limits. Additional guests not included in your rental agreement are required to check-in with Sleeping Sea management and additional fees may apply. Privacy, property lines, and “quiet hours”, observed between 9 pm and 7 am daily, must be respected at all times. Increased vehicle traffic, occupants, excessive noise, or illegal activity may result in fines and/or eviction.

Property Use & Responsibility

You accept liability for any damages caused to the home, including but not limited to; landscaping, misuse of appliances, and/or furnished equipment. If it is necessary to make extensive repairs or replacement, you will be charged for all labor and materials. Guests must immediately notify the owner of any damages or fire to the house and property.

Composting & Recycling

At Sleeping Sea we strive towards sustainability. Please save ALL food waste for our compost and farm animals. Absolutely NO food down the drain as it is harmful to the septic system. Be sure to recycle in the designated bins during your stay. Thank you for following these waste management guidelines.

Cleaning & Garbage Fees

San Juan County has severely limited trash/recycling services. In an effort to keep our islands green, please remove all refuse generated during your stay. If you prefer to leave your waste a removal fee will be charged for your garbage and recyclables. This must be arranged during check in/check out.

Our homes and units are thoroughly cleaned between guests. Additional housekeeping can be arranged. You are required to leave your unit in the same general condition in which you received it. In the event of excessively dirty conditions and disorganization, additional fees will apply.

Check In Procedure

Your arrival is 4 p.m. or later. Please let us know when you expect to arrive, especially if it will be after 6pm. We apologize that we cannot accommodate any early check-in during the high season (June-Sept.)

Check-Out Procedure

Your departure time is 11 a.m. Please wash dishes and put perishable foods in the refrigerator if you are leaving it behind, thank you. Put any compost for the animals/gardens in the refrigerator. Remove all your trash, recycling, and belongings from the rental. Leave keys as instructed. Guests are responsible for any lost or unreturned keys and lock changes.

Amenities

All rooms, suites, and homes are furnished with towels, bed linens, hand soap, dish soap, cleaning products, toilet paper, kitchen cloth towels, and sponges. Please bring your own paper household products, extra garbage bags, beach towels, personal body care products, and any special kitchen accessories. Laundry is not available in any of Sleeping Sea’s rentals unless advance arrangements are made for longer stay customers.

Vehicles

For guests staying at Once In A Blue Moon Farm, please park your car in the guest parking lot and the parking designated for the suites. Loading and unloading is available next to all the units. NO vehicles are allowed on the farm to reduce congestion and to be sure they do not inhibit our tractors and other machinery, unless alternative arrangements are made upon check-in.

Gates

Our locations are completely gated and fenced to keep eager deer out of our gardens, and to keep our animals safe inside their pastures. We ask if you open a gate, please close it gently behind you. Not all gates are for opening. Please respect all signage, especially on the farm. No guests are allowed in animal pastures or fruit orchards without accompaniment by Sleeping Sea staff.
