PLEASE READ EVERYTHING IN THIS SECTION!! Important FAQ's...
*Those renting longer than 30 days do not have to pay resort fees or ANY short term rental taxes! We also charge a reduced rate for 30+day bookings. Please message owner prior to booking for longer stays! We tend to only allow Mid Term Rentals (30+ days) in the fall through spring months, not in the summer months.
*We love sharing our home with others, but the Hardin Hilltop Villa is literally a 2nd home for our family, it's not just a rental property. Therefore, we are selective of who can rent and when, and we do not accept instant bookings. Our family is at the condo almost every week. Because of this, we know the exact condition of our condo, our golf cart, and what items are in the home. The condo is checked by the owner and a walk-through video is made prior to EVERY check in. All items in the condo are there for our renters to enjoy and use as needed. However, everything that was in the condo at check-in, should remain in the condo at checkout! Please do to take home our towels, decor, or supplies! (Soaps, coffee, paper towels , TP, etc.) We ask our renters to treat our home as if it was their own and leave the condo in the condition it was found.
