SAFETY & ASSUMPTION OF RISK: The amenities below are provided as a free courtesy and are not part of the accommodation you are paying for. Use is voluntary and at your own risk. Please inspect any equipment before use, and contact us instead of using anything you have a concern about.
BICYCLES: Check brakes, tires and condition before every ride. California law requires riders under 18 to wear a helmet, and we recommend one for every rider. Do not ride a bike you have any concern about — tell us and we will take it out of service.
ELEVATED AREAS: The rooftop terrace is unsupervised. Never sit or climb on the railings, and keep children under adult supervision the entire time they are up there.
GRILL: Never leave the grill unattended, keep children well clear, and make sure it is fully out before you go inside or leave.

BEACH GEAR: Beach chairs, towels, boards and other beach gear are provided as a courtesy and are used at your own risk, including in the ocean.

OCCUPANCY LIMIT: Maximum occupancy is 5 guests, including infants and children. Exceeding it is grounds for ending the stay without refund.
