Electronics - TV, Chromebook & Atari Game System
There is a large TV in the family room.*
Not that you want to watch a lot of television on you vacation, but there is a Google Chromecast attached to this TV so you could try to connect your electronic devices. There is a reasonable selection of local channels on the TV.
There is a 27" Monitor as well - you can hook up the Chromebook or your laptop (sadly, we know that a vacation doesn’t always mean a complete disconnect!)
There is also an Atari game system - which we hope gives you a chance to win over your kids for a change!
We have also provided a Chromebook (kind of like a laptop) for your use. This will allow you to surf the internet easily. The login is located on the machine.
Internet: the wifi password will be provided to you about a week before your trip - and is also on a sticker on the fridge. The internet quality is fast (>50MB/s) and generally pretty consistent.
Bose Speaker
This speaker is not waterproof, so please keep it away from water and dry
We would ask that you please don’t remove the speaker or Chromebook from the premises and make sure that they are kept inside to protect them from the elements.
Margaritaville Machine
These are delicious!
The full manual is located in the following pages in this binder.
You can make your own mix, or you can buy the mix at a local grocery store.
For best results, take the ice out of the freezer 10-15 minutes before you want to make the drinks - it softens the ice a bit so it can “shave” the ice better.
Laundry
A washer and dryer are located at the side of the home for your use. You may want to bring some soap from home.
There is a clothes line strung across the side of the yard - with strong sun and winds will dry anything faster than the dryer will - but be sure to use lots of clothes-pins!
A Note on Security Cameras (There are NOT any!)
Our cameras are put away when guests arrive. There are no concerns with security - we use these when no guests are there just to keep an eye on things (pool maintenance, landscaping, etc.)
The chromebook does have video on it in case you wish to speak with family or friends, but feel free to keep it closed or put some tape over the camera it if you have any concerns.
If you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask us.
