No Early Check-in at the rental house
Posted: Sun Mar 26, 2017 8:24 pm
The rental company seems to want to enforce this policy....
"For the overall benefit of our Guests, OBR has withdrawn the early check-in option. In order to adequately prepare our homes within the short window of time we have available on check-in days, experience has told us we must give our housekeeping staff the dedicated, uninterrupted time they need to perform a thorough clean of each home. Thus we cannot guarantee early check-in. However, as homes have been prepared and released by our Property Coordinators, we are more than happy to have early arriving Guests start their vacation a few hours early. Simply check in with the OBR Office that serves your home and provide a working cell phone number (not all cell services work on the Island). We will contact you once the home is available for your check-in. We appreciate your understanding of this policy so that we may present you the best home possible to begin your vacation."
So... check-in will be after 4 pm, I think.... I'll double-check on that for everyone. I'll also have Mike double-check to see if we have any "local" clout in getting around that. He might be able to get in to get the tables/chairs moved in since he's also a repair vendor (and a relative of the owner).... so we'll see how things go. But... don't plan on being at the house too early.
