Vacation Rental House Rules

Updated March 24, 2023

Occupancy

Only guests on your guest list will be provided security wristbands and allowed to enter the Oleo Playa Cancun Resort.

We need you to email your guest list with the first and last names and ages of everyone that will be staying inside the rental.

Your guest list needs to be emailed to us as soon as possible, because we need to submit it to our security administration at least one week prior to your arrival.

2 Bedroom units have an occupancy limit of 4 people. If you have more than four people there is an extra charge of $100 per person per day with a total limit of 6 people.

3- and 4-Bedroom units have an occupancy limit of 8 people. If you have more than eight people there is an extra charge of $100 per person per day with a total limit of 12 people in the 4-bedroom units and 10 people in the 3-bedroom units.

Penthouse 3704 does not allow more than 8 people in their unit.

We do not recommend more than 8-9 people in the larger units for the sake of your comfort on your vacation and we do not recommend more than 4 people in the 2-bedroom units also for the sake of your comfort. If you go over our recommendation and are not comfortable please do not give us a bad review.

Only the person who paid for the reservation can sign for the unit at check in and must have supplied us with a working cell phone number and valid passport.

In rare cases if the person who made the reservation needs someone else to sign for the unit at check in they must notify us in writing via email. The email must state that:

I, first name and last name authorize first and last name to sign for the condominium on my behalf, and I am aware that I am still responsible for all damages to the unit.

Resort Age Limit

You must be 27 years and older to book our vacation rental properties.

Resort Security

For your protection ÓLEO Cancún Playa - All Inclusive Boutique Resort Security Control requires all names and ages of every guest entering the property. This is not in our control.

Our resort security does not allow additional guests to arrive after the original guest list is submitted. Any additional guests arriving after the original guest list will not be allowed to enter the resort.

Early Check In

Check in is at 4:00 pm.

When you arrive at our resort our manager will be there to welcome you. If you are there before 4pm check-in time, you are welcome to use the resort facilities or get something to eat at the restaurants located directly across the street until check-in time.

Our property managers will greet you in the ÓLEO Cancún Playa lobby with the bar and give you your security wristbands so that you can walk about the resort.

Suitcases and Groceries

If you arrive before your check-in time at 4:00 pm; and you need our property managers to bring your belongings up to the condominium for your security they can, but please remember to tip them at least $5.00 US dollars per bag.

Late Check Out

Check out is 11:00 am.

If your transfer to the airport is later in the afternoon, you can leave your luggage inside the condominium entrance at 11am while we start the cleaning process for the next guests. We ask that you return no later than 3 pm to pick up your luggage. If you do not retrieve your luggage before 3 pm we will charge you for an additional day.

Cleaning

Our cleaning fee is based on you being a courteous guest (someone who cleans up after themselves, cleans their used dishes and follows all check out rules). We ask that you leave our property the same way you found it.

Our condominiums are not hotels. If our housekeeping company discovers an unreasonable amount of clutter or damage post checkout, we will charge an additional cleaning fee of $195.

Please understand that our housekeeping company is responsible for all our units within a short window of time (from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm) to clean up to 3000 square feet. Please follow the check-out instructions left on the kitchen counter for you when you arrive.

Garbage

Do not put your garbage outside of the condominium. We receive a fine if you leave trash outside of the penthouses. There are security cameras watching this, they will record you and we will receive a fine and pass it along to you.

Separate your trash into the separate recycle bins as marked inside the condominium and use the specific clear bags we give you. Notify your property manager via email if you need a special pick up of your recycling or garbage.

No Pets Allowed

Smoking and Parties

Smoking and Parties are not allowed. The smoking fee is $500. Smoking is permitted on the terrace. Please note that any burn holes left in any outdoor cushions will result in no refund of your security deposit. Please be careful.

Smoking and partying inside the unit damages our property and leaves the unit unsuitable to rent to our next guest. It costs money to repair the damage and remove excess debris left behind when someone smokes or parties inside our unit.

It takes the cleaning company more time than is allowed after your check out time of 11:00 a.m. to rent an ozone machine for smoke remediation to treat and prepare the unit before the next guest check in time of 4:00 p.m.

Therefor an additional expedited cleaning fee is also paid to the cleaning company if a party did happen, or smoking was found during your stay to make the home “smoke free” and like new again. This expedited cleaning fee is $250 on top of the fee to rent the ozone machine of $300 and the additional cleaning fee of $195.

If we are unable to make the unit like new again before the next guest arrives, we must refund our next guest or upgrade their stay to a new unit. You will be responsible for additional cleaning fees, expedited cleaning fees to bring in additional cleaning company, ozone rental – smoke remediation fee and you will lose your security deposit. The total cost to you could be over $1000 US dollars.

Noise levels need to be low after 10:00 p.m.

Do not engage in illegal activities anywhere on the property. This includes internet downloads.

Applicable Fee Schedule

A condition of renting our property is you agree that you are liable for all sets of house keys given to you. If all sets of house keys are not returned to the kitchen counter when you leave, you will be charged a $300 fee to have a locksmith come out and re-key the unit or install new locks.

A condition of using our cooking amenities is that all cooking utensils, pots and pans and dishes will be cleaned and put back away before you check out. Dirty dishes that are also not put away will result in an additional dirty dishes cleaning fee of $100. Upon your arrival if you feel you are missing any cookware, notify the property manager.

A condition of being able to stay in our unit is that you agree to sorting all debris and using the four recycle bins assigned. Excessive trash left behind or not sorting the trash will result in an additional unsorted trash/excessive debris cleaning fee of $100.

A condition of staying in our unit is you understand there are no late check outs. We have a limited amount of time to get our units COVID19 ready for the next guest arrival time. If you are not checked out before 11:00 a.m. this will result in a late check out fee of $100 per half hour. If you hold possession of our property for more than 2 hours we will charge you for an additional day, this does not award you possession for the additional day, it is a penalty for holding possession of our unit after your check out time.

If the property should go on the MARKET FOR SALE, it may be shown to qualified buyers during the Tenants’ stay. Every effort will be made to schedule the showing at a convenient time and not interrupt the Tenant’s vacation. Tenants shall allow reasonable viewings of the home between 9 am and 8 PM present or not. Note from Tim: For the record this has never happened in all my years of taking care of the penthouses here in Cancun, so the odds of this happening are extremely rare.

Only legally owned and permitted firearms shall be allowed on the premises according to State and local laws.
Tenant agrees that Fireworks and other hazardous materials shall not be used in or around the property.

The tenant is advised that the property contains several appliances and to ask how each one operates by the manager that is giving you the keys, showing you around the unit and answering your questions. Several of these appliances are in Spanish, so be sure to know how each works while the manager is present. Thank you.

Tenant agrees that Air conditioning shall not be set below 69° Fahrenheit or 20° Celsius, and not set above 78° Fahrenheit or 25° Celsius. Doors and windows must be closed while the air conditioning is in operation. If you do not close all windows while the AC is running the system can turn into "a block of ice" quite quickly and stop running. This is extremely hard on the AC units and will stop you from having cold air for several hours. It is critical that all windows and doors remain shut while the AC is on. The tenant agrees to keep windows and doors shut while the AC is on.
