All cancellations must be in writing. Cancellation results in forfeiture of rent deposit.

Your reservation will be in effect upon receipt of your deposit and the cancellation policy will apply at that time. A transfer to another Property at Guest's request will be treated as a cancellation. No refunds will be given for inclement weather, including hurricanes, or for activities beyond control of Owner/Agent.

Telephones
Due to the unlimited services offered by cell phone providers it is determined that phone service as an amenity is an unnecessary expense. Therefore, phone service is not provided with most of our properties. Reminder: In Maryland, an area code is required when dialing locally.
Swimming Pools
Most pools are open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The opening and closing of pools varies and is at the building’s discretion. Pools are closed periodically for maintenance without notice.

Each property is privately owned and reflects each owner’s personal tastes and requirements. If you have a specific need, please advise us prior to making your reservation, as we will be unable to make substitutions or refunds upon your arrival.

Agency Relationship / Noise Ordinance
Ocean City Weekly Rentals, Inc. has an agency relationship with owners of properties in our rental program. The agent has been hired and paid by Owners for services rendered. In all negotiations regarding these properties the Agent will be representing the best interest of the Owner. We are required by law to inform you in writing there is a "Noise Control Ordinance" in effect. It makes it unlawful to cause or permit noise levels which exceed those established by the Dept. of health & Mental Hygiene of the State of Md. (COMAR 10.20.01). Upon notification that these noise levels have been exceeded as a result of activity on premises, guest shall vacate the premises, and no refunds shall be given.
