There are few things to keep in mind...
First, this is a home, rather than a hotel. There is no desk clerk available after hours, no maid service or room service. In your arrival packet, you will be provided a contact number in case of any mechanical emergency, however.
After check-in at the Seawind Amenities Building, you may park on any of the parking deck's 3 levels. Leave your parking pass in view and find a luggage cart. (No need to overload it...this is a vacation, remember?) Take the elevator to the 10th floor, turn right & go all the way to the end to 1009.
Please do not bring the luggage cart inside.
Guard your key...see how the door can easily leave you locked out?
Welcome inside!
Savor the view from the balcony, smell the gulf breeze, hear the surf and, above all, slow down...
As you decide who will sleep where, take a look at the "Guest Info" book. You may have to dig around for it. It has instructions about the 2 sleeper sofas & info about the linens for them—and maybe it still has some free gumbo coupons. On second thought, why not print out some now, just in case:
Before you go to
the
pool or hot tub,
put on
a yellow wrist band...
You may as well wear it to the beach, too.
The
Kitchen
is
fully equipped; but no food (even salt &
pepper) will be here.
Consider bringing your favorite spices; but
it's simple & no more expensive to do your
shopping in the area. Walmart, Target &
Publix are a short drive away. Several local
grocers and fish markets, too.
The full size
laundry is your friend...it
includes a drying rack, iron & ironing
board. Open the water heater closet &
notice the plunger.
Bathrooms have hairdryers & a starter set
of towels.
Each TV has a DVD player & connections for
your video games.
