DO NOT OPERATE FIREPLACES - Florida is already toasty enough. Please do not start fires in the living room or master bedroom fireplaces.

Refunds will not be issued for insects and/or animals found inside or outside of the property.

Additional needs for your stay will be your responsibility. To provide the best quality service to our guests, we offer luxury hotel-quality towels & linens. Please be respectful of bed sheets and towels by using makeup wipes rather than white washcloths and towels to remove makeup/foundation, face medications/creams, and tanning products. If a linen gets stained, please do not wash it; set it aside and we will take care of it after check-out.
AT YOUR OWN RISK - Use of the property including use of the pool, hot tub, kayaks, paddleboards, and elevator is at your own risk. Please exercise appropriate care and supervise children at all times. As a courtesy, we may leave complimentary consumables such as condiments, toiletries, and other supplies. It is up to the guest's discretion to consume these items if they wish. Host is not responsible for any allergies that guests may have.
We want you to have a 5-star experience at Mandalay Manor. If ABSOLUTELY anything results in a less than magical, extraordinary, and phenomenal stay, please contact us immediately so that we can address it for you as soon as possible.
