Extra Guest Rates & Rules

Having extra guests on the property to attend any gathering costs an additional $2,000-$5,000. This fee can be paid on arrival and includes access to the
3,000 square feet of outdoor covered space including the big tiki hut,
3 stall luxury restroom trailer equipped with AC, stereo, paper towels, and TP,
Silent disco equipment,
Industrial fridge,
15...... 6 foot long rectangle tables,
15..... 5 foot long circle tables,
75 tan banquet chairs,
75 white folding chairs,
400 sq. ft dance floor,
outside custom tiki bar,
outdoor lighting in the tiki hut and backyard, and our parking lot for 30+ cars.


Here is a short list of rules we have for having extra guests and renting premium amenities.

All outside music must be off by 10pm. You can play music in the game house after 10pm

75 people is the max limit for any gathering.

Occasionally parties have gotten out of control, so to help you prevent this issue, an off duty BPD Officer must be hired for security. Having this nonintrusive officer standing at the end of the driveway relieves your duty to unnecessarily deal with police being called during your special day.

If you are serving liquor you must purchase a liability policy you can buy online for about $150. Internet search K and K insurance for coverage options. Email me your certificate of liability insurance 30 days prior to arrival with Don Power as the beneficiary.

An additional $1,000 deposit will be required for having extra guests at the home. If any house rules, extra guest rules, local noise ordinance laws, or excessive wear and tear on the property and home occur, your deposit may be forfeited. If no rules are broken, the deposit will be returned within 5 days of check out/visual inspection of the property.

All set up and take down of tables, chairs, decorations, etc. are your responsibility.

IMPORTANT All events and extra guests must be approved first before booking

    My extended family and I stayed at this property for a funeral (16 of us). We were so fortunate to find such an amazing place at this location. I have stayed at many, many short term rentals but this one really stands out, there is so much to do for a large group both day and night that we never left the property. A nearby contact can really come in handy...especially when you accidentally set of the smoke alarm. lol! We are considering having a reunion each year here since everybody came from far away (SoFlo, Jax, Texas and North Carolina).

    What a wonderful time everyone had. We arrived a couple days in advance for a wedding, on site, and no one wanted leave. The littles were able to swim, middles kayak, and adults prep and then relax. Plenty of room to spread out for various activities. Kitchen was well stocked for us to enjoy cooking on site as well. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!

    Step into a world of wonder and thrill at this extraordinary venue, a true paradise for our spirited boy's soccer team. Within these walls, remarkable experiences and indelible moments were crafted, leaving an everlasting mark on their hearts. It's no wonder that we have already made up our minds - this sanctuary will undoubtedly be our chosen haven once again, eagerly awaiting next year's highly anticipated tournament.

    Very well appointed estate with plenty of room for our family gathering. We found everything we needed for our family of 16. The highlights include the excellent pool and hot tub with waterfall, the manatees that hung out by the dock, kayaks and paddleboards, one incredible massage chair, the game and theater room. Martin was readily available when we reached out with questions but allowed us to enjoy the property without intruding during our stay, perfect! Very peaceful location, plenty of parking, lots of space, plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained....easy property to recommend. We loved our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again should the opportunity arise.

    We stayed at shangri la for our annual summer family vacation. 14 total age 3 months to 70 years old. We had an outstanding time! The pool is spectacular! You can control the waterfalls, temp, Lights and hot tub jets with an app. We keep the hot tub a moderate temp and the little kids were able to enjoy it like a kiddie pool. The sunsets off the dock were amazing every night and there was plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. The common areas in the living room and dining room worked out perfectly for our group. Plenty of shopping and sing choices to order in or drive to within 20 minutes or so. Also numerous golf courses within 15 minute drive. Coltin was a gracious host and responded promptly to any questions. We were unable to take advantage of the kayaks or paddle boards because there was so much else to do. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a large home with plenty of amenities.
