If you come in from the beach and it seems warmer than 71 degrees that is because it senses when you leave and when you return. It will come back on when you arrive and go back to 71 degrees.
Because the living area is virtually all glass with 9 all glass panels, it will be warmer than the bedrooms. You should find a box fan in the second master bedroom closet. And there is a large pedestal fan in the queen room closet. We like to put it in hallway to blow the cooler air toward the living area. It really makes a difference. If you decide to use it, please put it back in the closet before you leave.
You may notice in most rooms a little square box on the walls about 2 inches wide by 2 inches. They are temperature sensors for the cooling system. Please do not touch them.

Inform the attendant of your unit number (1317) and he/she can verify that you have paid for service. You may need to give him the name of the prior owner (who reserved the service). Her name is Amy Mollohan.
You have two options with the beach service:- For any row other than the first row, you can reserve with the attendant the same set for the length of your entire stay. That way you only have to get in line to reserve one time.
- If you want on the front row, you must get in line every morning to try to get on the front row. They start at 8:30 a.m.
PLEASE MAKE SURE THE REFRIGERATOR’S TEMPERATURE SETTING IS NOT AT ITS COLDEST SETTING. According to a technician that actually makes it NOT work as well. Both the freezer and refrigerator setting should be near the middle. You should find the refrigerator empty when you arrive. When you add room temperature items, it takes a while for the refrigerator to get all of them cold. Also make sure no item you add is blocking the damper from the freezer to the refrigerator near the back of the refrigerator. HERE IS A TIP: If you have bought or brought several canned drinks, put them in the freezer first for 25 minutes or so. Then move them to the refrigerator. Putting several room temperature drinks in the previously empty refrigerator takes a long time to get cool.
- 1. Choose a 3-6 digit Personalized Code to use during your stay.
