Section 1
Completely renovated in 2014 with recent updates, this unit will accommodate up to six people, but is best suited for four people. I normally occupy the unit personally from November through mid-April; so, this is a fully-functional home with more small appliances and amenities than you would find in most short-term rentals making it very suitable for a business traveler or someone relocating and needing a home for a few months.

This is a quiet end unit that is quite close to the hot tub, but just a minute's walk from the pool. I find this location preferable to many other buildings throughout the complex as it is away from the hustle-and-bustle of the pool. If there's a bit of fun at the hot tub in the evening, you have the option of descending the metal shutter to block out any annoying noise.

Living/Dining Area with dedicated Work Station
The living room has a 55-inch LED Smart TV with a Bose sound bar. There is an advanced Cox cable package that includes Movie and Sports channels, and you can just talk to the remote. There is also a Bose radio with a remote, or touch the top to turn it on and off. For seating, there is a three-seater couch, a two-seater and a big comfortable chair - each seat reclines separately. Hi-speed wifi is also included and there is a four-port USB charging station.

To the right of the entertainment area, there is a work station for your laptop or paperwork. Upon request, for longer stays, a wired laser printer can be made available. If you require use of the printer (and a shredder), please contact us and we will let you know the model number so that you can order a toner cartridge.

The bar-height dining table seats six, with the use of two additional stools at from the breakfast bar.

Kitchen
The kitchen has been beautifully laid out and is well-appointed with dishes and cutlery for six. All the necessities are included, even an ice and water dispenser in the door of the fridge.

We provide Keurig pods and ground coffee for your first morning, and will tailor the pods to your preference for tea or coffee. There is a drip coffee maker in addition to the Keurig one-cup system. There is non-dairy creamer and packets of cane sugar, sugar substitute and honey. If you prefer milk or cream, you'll want to stop at Sprout's across the road or Fry's at Indian School Road and Miller on your way to the unit.

Salt, pepper and a variety of spices are also available, as well as dish-washing liquid and dishwasher tabs (3). The kitchen is also stocked with a limited supply of the following: tin foil, plastic wrap, cooking oil, and cooking spray. Please appreciate that these sundry items are here as a courtesy and convenience, and only meant to get you started, not to last your entire stay. Please note, open containers may be contaminated by previous guests and you use these items at your own risk.

Bedrooms
The master suite has a king-size bed; the guest suite has two full-size beds. Each bedroom has a private bathroom, and a 42-inch LED Smart TV. Each bathroom has a hair dryer; curling iron, bathing and pool towels are supplied. Please ensure that only the red-and-white striped towels are taken to the pool or spa. The solid-colored linens are strictly for use in-house.

The master en suite is a three-piece and the shower has a bench. The guest en suite has a large vanity area with two sinks, and the tub and toilet separated by a door. All of the beds have hypoallergenic mattress pads and the pillows also have pillow protectors which are cleaned regularly. Bedsides have four-port USB charging stations.

The unit is cleaned just before your arrival, including fresh linens obviously. If you desire additional housekeeping services during your stay, my property manager can arrange this for you and you pay the housekeeper directly. A set of extra sheets is supplied for each bed. If you need to use these, there is a $10 surcharge per set for the housekeeper's extra work.

Patio
The fenced ground-floor patio has an automatic screen and a security door which is operated by controls on the wall inside the unit. Please be very careful when descending the screen or shutter because, if they close with something in their way, the damage/repair will require a service call which must be charged back to your security deposit.

The patio is furnished with four comfortable chairs, as well as two loungers. There is a side gate that provides quick access to the hot tub area about a hundred feet away. I had new patio doors installed. The configuration is a center-opening with two doors that gives a six-foot entry, almost making the patio part of the living area itself. These doors are easy to open and close, but you will never want to close them.

The patio also has a wall-mounted fireplace which is operated by remote control or manual switch on the top right-hand corner. Settings include low heat, high heat, just visual, and of course off. The addition of the fireplace on the patio makes this a complete extra room year-round, no matter how chilly an evening may become. Put the roller shade down and you can enjoy it all evening. I have also added a bike stand that will store two bicycles; however, you will need to bring your own locks/chain (and bikes...rentals available in plaza across the street).

Laundry ** price increase pending as of June 2021 **
There are laundry rooms about a minute away on the second and third floors (stairs or elevator) or ramp, and very-reasonably priced. A wash is $1.25; the dryer is a dollar. You will need the security FOB to enter the laundry rooms. Two Tide laundry tabs are provided for your convenience. You will find these in the front bedroom closet. There is also a broom, dustpan, vacuum, wet/dry mop, as well as cleaning products if you need them.

Sundries
We also provide liquid hand soap, air freshener (spray), four rolls of toilet paper, two rolls of paper towels and other sundry items.

Common Areas
Just to the south side of the clubhouse (before you get to the hot tub gate), there are two gas bar-b-ques. Bar-b-que tools can be found in the slim cabinet to the left of the stove (please remember to bring them back). In the pool common area, you will find a ping-pong table; there is also a sauna, a shower, washrooms, and fitness facilities in the clubhouse (cardio on the main floor, weights upstairs). There is also a billiards table on the upper level.

We include plastic wine and drinking glasses for use when outside the condo-proper. Glass is absolutely not permitted in the common areas and we ask that you respect this policy. Taking glass to the pool or spa compounds is a violation which will incur severe monetary penalties. There can be no drinks or food within four feet of the pool or hot tub edge. These areas are monitored by security cameras and you can be identified by the FOBs used when you entered. Fines for violations will be charged back to your security deposit; so, please follow the rules.

Area Information
You will find Sprouts Food Market within an easy (2 or 3-minute) walking distance, just across Miller Avenue; as well, there is a Bread Basket bakery and several restaurants and a sports bar in that same plaza. There is a Fry's Grocery on Miller at Indian Road, about a mile south on Miller (turn left out of the driveway). And there's a CVS Pharmacy across from Fry's.

Cab rides are very inexpensive if you don't want to walk, and the golf-cart shuttles are always available for the trip home. The Miller Road Trolley stops mere steps from our driveway and their phone number and schedule is in an information binder provided in the unit. The Maya Condominium is very close to the entertainment and fashion districts. It is a wonderful community with many activities going on where you will make friends, or you can keep to yourself as you wish.

There are numerous golf courses nearby, car races, spring training, hiking, and walking trails. And there's shopping, lots and lots of shopping to do with Fashion Square so close by.

Please Note:
Our standard check-out time is 10am. This allows staff an opportunity to thoroughly clean and inspect the unit before the next visitor, particularly if someone is arriving later the same day or the next day. If possible, we will accommodate late check-out at a rate of $25US per three hours or part thereof. This must be pre-arranged, preferably at the time of your initial booking, but we will happily work with you to try to accommodate any last-minute arrangements you may need to make.

I have tried to give you all the information that I can think of, but if there's anything else that you need to know, please don't hesitate to ask.

It's very important to us that we provide you with an enjoyable stay, and it's just as important that we do not disrupt our neighbors. Please be polite and respectful to all that you meet, and do not hesitate to let us know if you have any problems. We hope to see you soon.
