AIR CONDITIONING: This is very important. If you leave the
doors open and make the A/C work harder than it should, the A/C units could
freeze up. They are not meant to air condition the outside. Please be aware
that you will be charged for a frozen A/C repair. Galveston is very humid and
the A/C is meant to cool the house only. It works best if just left alone and
put on 70-73

the lockbox downstairs on the
Tiki Hut door handle. The lockbox codes will be sent to you
in a welcome email or SMS.
