Arrival and services

1️⃣ YOUR TRIP AND ARRIVAL
We recommend the Acapulco-Zihuatanejo bypass from the last 'La Venta' toll booth — Google Maps/Waze will direct you that way. You save the macro-tunnel and Acapulco traffic. Highway to the coast, then 15 km by road.

Welcome!
During your stay
Welcome to Villa Rincón del Mar 🌅
🔥 Water heater / hot water
The water heater is normally off — the water arrives warm due to the hot climate. If you prefer hot water: turn on the heater located behind the kitchen, in the service area.
🔒 Safe boxes
Each bedroom has a safe box. Karina, our manager, gives you the access code at check-in. We are not responsible for cash or valuables not kept in the safes.
🏊 Pool
Infinity pool, facing the ocean. Maintained daily. No diving depth — enjoy swimming.
🍳 Kitchen
Fully equipped: 6-burner stove, oven, large refrigerator, microwave, blender, coffee maker. Chef Celene and team manage the area during your stay.
🧹 Cleaning
Daily room service. Weekly sheet change. Towels every 3 days.
🚿 Towels
Bath and beach towels included — find extra towels in the closet of each bedroom.
🛒 Last-minute shopping

🚨 Emergencies
Karina available during your stay for any need — find her on the property or via Airbnb message.
House rules
🏡 RINCÓN DEL MAR · HOUSE RULES
PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING
Simply put: treat our home as your own. Respect for staff, neighbors and other guests. These rules are short and we enforce them. Accepting them is part of your booking — Airbnb's policies are clear and I use them, even when uncomfortable.
📋 CAPACITY AND GUESTS
Airbnb allows 16 guests in its system. We charge $300 MXN/night per additional person up to full capacity — ask for a quote before booking. Unannounced guests or pets are at host discretion only: charge + possible cancellation. Non-overnight visitors: max 3/day with prior notice, no access to bedrooms or services.
👥 STAFF · ZERO TOLERANCE
Staff works 8 AM–6 PM. To extend, arrange directly with them. Respect for the team is non-negotiable: shouting, harassment, disrespect or filming without consent = immediate eviction without refund + report to Airbnb under Ground Rules. Conflicts: escalate to the host in writing — do not confront staff.
🌊 OPEN SEA · SERIOUS WARNING
Open Pacific, outside the bay. December–March: sea generally calm. April–November: unpredictable swell, ground swells with waves up to 5 meters — real risk. We have lost two guests in past years. We don't want a third. ALWAYS follow staff recommendations — if they say "don't go in," don't go in. For year-round safe swimming: the infinity pool.
🌀 WEATHER EVENTS AND CANCELLATION
Hurricane season: June–November (peak risk August–October). Rainy season: mid-May–September. Ground swell: any month. Free cancellation only if authorities issue mandatory evacuation. Storms, swell, power outages or heavy rain are NOT grounds for refund. US Travel Advisory for Guerrero: by booking you declare you know and accept the advisory. Cancellation for "extenuating circumstance" related to the advisory does NOT apply.
🐾 PETS · STRICT LIMITS
Max 2 pets per booking, $300 MXN per pet per stay. We have had three biting incidents and once guests arrived with 5 unannounced puppies (8 dogs total) — not happening again. Firm rules:
— Notify at booking. Unannounced pets: cancellation or extra charge at discretion.
— NOT in the pool, NOT on sofas, NOT on beds, NOT on towels/sheets. Violation = $500 MXN sanitation fee.
— Pets are NOT left alone inside bedrooms.
— Clean up after them.
— If they show aggression toward people, other animals or children: leashed or confined in a covered space for the ENTIRE stay. No exceptions.
— Owner is 100% liable for bites, attacks or damage. No debate.
💰 DAMAGE AND AIRCOVER
Damage is documented with timestamped photos by Alex, Karina or staff when detected. Any damage or missing items — glassware, fixtures, infrastructure, equipment or furniture — is billed at host discretion via AirCover (Resolution Center, 14 days post-checkout). Sheets or towels with vomit, urine, feces, permanent stains, pet hair or dyes: you pay replacement cost and take the soiled items with you. Violating these rules may void your AirCover coverage and result in a direct charge. Unresolved major damage: report to Airbnb + possible account suspension.
🥃 GLASS NEAR THE POOL
Glass is prohibited on the terrace, in the pool and on the beach. A break in the pool requires a full water change and deep cleaning: $2,000 MXN charge.
🪑 FURNITURE AND SPEAKERS
Do not move mattresses, sofas, chairs, loungers or tables out of their assigned spots — especially to the beach. We have plastic chairs you're welcome to take to the beach. House speakers stay in the house — not on the beach or the street. Hammocks and palapas: return them where you found them.
🎵 MUSIC AND NOISE
Moderate volume always, out of respect for neighbors. After 10 PM: no amplified music, no DJ, no outdoor speakers. Exception: formal events with prior WRITTEN host agreement and full compliance with agreed-upon hours.
❄️ AIR CONDITIONING
Your AC works like a refrigerator: a fixed-speed compressor. Dropping it to 16°C does NOT cool faster — it just doubles your power use and can make you sick. The range is limited to 23–27°C; set cooling and fan to auto. Turn it off when you leave the room — staff will turn it off if you forget.
🚭 PROHIBITED
Smoking inside bedrooms and enclosed areas (terraces OK). Smoke odor is documentable damage under AirCover 2026 policy: professional cleaning charge + Airbnb report. Illegal drugs: immediate eviction without refund + report to authorities. Commercial shoots (fashion, music video, film, ads) or drone filming without authorization: cancellation + charge.
🎉 EVENTS AND PARTIES
Birthdays, quinceañeras, weddings, bachelor/ette parties, corporate events: REQUIRE prior WRITTEN agreement + separate quote. External catering, professional DJ, decor or outside staff: only with prior host authorization. Unauthorized parties or events without written agreement: immediate cancellation + damage charge + Airbnb report.
🍽️ KITCHEN AND SERVICES
Chef and cook included during operating hours. If you choose NOT to use the staff kitchen, you are responsible for leaving the kitchen, ovens, refrigerator, pots, plates, glasses, silverware and utensils clean and undamaged. Paid optional services:
— Grocery shopping: 5% over cost + $450 MXN minimum
— Extra night staff: cook $500 MXN (3 PM–10 PM), server/bartender $650 MXN (5 PM–12 AM). 1 week prior notice required.
— Events and special meals: prior written agreement.
— Recommended transport providers: pay them directly. We are not a travel agency. Damage or complaints with third parties: resolve with the provider.
🧹 CLEANING
Common areas: daily cleaning. Bedroom trash: daily. Beds: made at check-in, not daily. Towels: changed every 3 days. Sheets: changed every 4 days. Stays of 7+ nights: weekly sheet change.
🔌 POWER AND UTILITIES
We're in Pie de la Cuesta, a coastal area. CFE supplies electricity with frequent outages — beyond our control. Average: 1–3 outages/week in high season, typically 15 min–2 hours. We have emergency lighting in common areas; closed refrigerators keep food safe up to 12 hours. Water and wifi may be affected during prolonged outages. Power outages are NOT grounds for refund or AirCover claim. Booking Pie de la Cuesta means accepting local utility reality.
📶 INTERNET
Residential Starlink — good for video calls, social media and standard streaming. During CFE outages internet drops too. If your work requires guaranteed 24/7 professional connection, this is NOT the right property.
🏖️ BEACH AND PALAPA
Private palapa on the beach with loungers — no need to bring extra umbrellas for our spot. If you visit other beaches, bring your own. Umbrellas for sale: $500 MXN (fragile in wind, no guarantee).
🌴 PALMS AND COCONUTS · WARNING
The property has 14 palm trees. Coconuts fall without warning — day, night, with or without wind. For your safety:
— DO NOT stand, sit, sleep, park vehicles or leave valuables under palm trees.
— DO NOT climb, shake, hit or try to bring coconuts down.
— DO NOT let children play under or near palm trees.
As owners we maintain the palms within reasonable practices, but falling coconuts are an unpredictable natural event. We are NOT liable for damage, injury or loss caused by coconuts or objects falling from palm trees. By booking you accept this warning and assume the risk.
👶 CHILDREN
Property suitable for children with active supervision. Pool without fencing, beach with variable surf, stairs without child rails: adults are 100% responsible. We have a high chair and crib available — request at booking. Babysitter: separate quote. Children over 2 count toward total capacity and pay full rate.
🚙 PARKING
Gated parking for 2 vehicles. Safe area and wide streets — additional vehicles can park outside without issue. We accept passenger vans with prior notice. We are not liable for vehicle damage from wind, branches or third parties.
🔒 SECURITY
Safe available for valuables — use it. Alarm system and CCTV cameras at entrances (locations shown by the manager, not in private areas or bedrooms). We are not liable for lost objects.
🏥 HEALTH AND EMERGENCIES
Medical clinic, lab and pharmacy 15 minutes away. Private hospital in Acapulco center: 30–45 minutes. Staff are not medically trained — in emergency we call 911. Basic first-aid kit available. Specific medication: bring your own. Food allergies: notify the chef AT BOOKING.
🕐 CHECK-IN AND CHECKOUT
Check-in 3 PM. Checkout 11 AM SHARP. New guests almost always arrive the same day — cleaning time is critical. There is NO "late checkout without prior agreement": if you don't vacate on time without prior arrangement, we report to Airbnb to have you leave immediately + $2,000 MXN/hour charge. Late checkout arranged in advance: free if real availability exists, $300 MXN/hour if cleaning was already scheduled. Early check-in: subject to availability + charge per case.
💬 COMMUNICATION DURING YOUR STAY
Any issue: notify us IN WRITING via Airbnb message DURING your stay, not after. Most issues resolve quickly when communicated in time. Post-checkout complaints without prior notice during the stay: hard to resolve via Airbnb. Response time: 4 hours during operating hours (8 AM–8 PM); emergencies 24/7.
✍️ ACCEPTANCE
By confirming your booking on Airbnb you accept these House Rules, the cancellation policy visible on your reservation, the weather and Travel Advisory disclaimer, the AirCover damage policy, and the published costs of optional services. Airbnb support is available 24/7 for mediation.
Enjoy your stay.
