What do I need to do to Book?
We’re so glad you found our Book Direct site — where you can save on fees and enjoy the peace of booking directly with our local team. Every reservation goes through a simple verification process to keep our guests and homes safe.
✅ How to Book
1. Primary Guest Must Be 25+
You’ll need to be at least 25 years old to reserve one of our homes.
2. Complete Your Contact Info
Please fill in your full name, phone number, and email address so we can reach you if needed.
3. Quick Identity Check
We’ll just need:
A photo of your government-issued ID (driver’s license or passport).
A selfie so we can confirm you’re the same person.
The name on your ID, credit card, and reservation must all match.
💡 Why we do this: It protects our wonderful guests and ensures our homeowners know exactly who’s staying in their home.
🏠 Prefer to Book Through a Platform?
No problem!
If you’d rather skip our ID verification, you can easily reserve through our [Airbnb] or [VRBO] listings.
Just scroll down and click the Superhost icons at the bottom of this page.

💫 Flexible Cancellation Policy
We understand plans can change — and we do our best to make it easy.
Cancel within 24 hours of booking: Full refund, no questions asked.
Cancel 30+ days before check-in: You’ll receive a 100% refund.
Cancel 15–29 days before check-in: You’ll receive a 50% refund.
Cancel within 14 days of check-in: Unfortunately, refunds aren’t available at that stage.
💡 Tip: For extra peace of mind, we highly recommend adding travel insurance during checkout — it can protect your trip against unexpected changes.
💙 Booking With Confidence
We completely understand — booking directly can feel like a big step. That’s why we make it easy to trust who you’re booking with.
At Chic Beach Vacations, transparency is everything. We also list all of our homes on Airbnb and VRBO, where we’ve proudly been Airbnb Superhosts since 2018 and VRBO Preferred Partners.
You’re always welcome to book through those platforms and pay their service fees — but when you book directly with us, you’ll save those extra costs without sacrificing peace of mind.
Rest assured, you’re in great hands. 🌴
🗓 Flexible Cancellation Policy
We know plans can change, so we’ve made our cancellation policy as fair and simple as possible:
Within 24 hours of booking: Cancel for free, no penalty.
30+ days before check-in: 100% refund.
15–29 days before check-in: 50% refund.
14 days or less: Unfortunately, no refunds can be given.
💡 Tip: We strongly recommend adding travel insurance at checkout for extra peace of mind — especially for longer stays or group trips.
⏰ Early Check-In & Late Check-Out
We know flexibility makes travel easier — that’s why we offer early check-in and late check-out options after your reservation is confirmed.
You’ll receive a text message with available options and pricing once your stay is booked.
You can also find these choices anytime in your Digital Guidebook under the “Services” tab.
💡 Tip: Availability depends on cleaning and inspection schedules, so be sure to reserve your preferred time as early as possible.
