Did you know that we offer a golf cart rental?

It is SO much fun to cruise around the island on our 2023 six passenger Bintelli electric (lithium battery) street legal golf cart.  It has a beach chair rack on the back and built in bluetooth speakers so you can listen to your favorite music!

The cost is $75 per night (April 1-Sept 30), $45 per night in the off season (Oct 1-March 31) and is rented for the duration of your stay. Golf cart rental is $25 a night for stays longer than 21+ nights (Oct to March).  Golf cart rental charge is non-refundable due to operator error or poor weather conditions.

We will need a copy of you driver's license, auto insurance, and a signed copy our golf cart waiver and usage guidelines. Must be 25 years old to rent golf cart.

Month long stays (28+ nights) may be subject to an additional mid-stay clean and linen swap out charge of $275.00.
Garage is not available for guest's vehicle use, this is where we store our onsite golf cart.
Restricted thermostat- no lower than 68 for AC and no higher than 75 for heat.
