Regulations must be posted on the back of the entry door.
Emergency Contact
Owners must post an emergency contact number for rental-related problems.
Renters are not to use RPV staff for this purpose.
Security Gate Access
Owners who rent their units need to supply the renter with a remote control or a security card for the gates. These can be obtained from management at a specific cost to the owner.
Laundry Machines
The owners need to inform their renters that the laundry machines require tokens.
Damages
Owners are responsible to remediate all damages to RPV property caused by their tenants.
Restricted Areas
Renters are not permitted access to Ambassador’s Club, Gym, or Rooftop Patio.
Barbecue Grill Use
Renters are not permitted to use grills on balconies or in units. RPV does not provide grills for rental use.

1. Fun, Health, Happiness and Respect are the most important rule for guests.
2. RPV rules and regulations are required to be followed by all persons staying in a
rental unit.
3. No Smoking is allowed in any common area(s), ie Pool area, inner courtyard
walkways and building stairways. It is also NOT ALLOWED in limited common
areas, ie balconies. Smoking is allowed in designated areas only.
4. No items may be hung on the railings of balconies or stairways.
5. Renters are not allowed to have pets within the unit or on property.
6. Renters are to use only the designated parking space for the unit.
7. Renters should use laundry and trash facilities in their designated area.

8. No loud music, television, or personal yelling or screaming is allowed at any time

gym or rooftop patio.

1. Safety is most important and the door needs to be locked upon leaving. Doors
are not to be propped open at any time. Keys need to be supplied both to owners
and renters.
2. Cleanliness is also very important. All garbage needs to be in proper plastic bags
and placed directly in the large plastic trash cans. All cardboard boxes need to be
broken down and placed on the side of the trash cans, as not to take up room for
garbage bags.
3. Major appliances such as refrigerators, dishwashers etc., are not to be stored in
the laundry room and the owners need to make arrangements for the removal at the
same time a replacement appliance is installed. This is not the responsibility of
RPV employees.
4. Fans need to be running during washer/dryer operations. This can help keep the
heat at a reduced level. It can also reduce possible injury.

As RPV Owners (you will be held responsible for your renters), failure of either
party to follow and adhere to these stated Renter Rules and Regulations will be held
in violation of said policies and rules. Penalties and fines for failure to follow, will
be administered as outlined in Regatta Point Villas’ “General Fine Schedule for
Association Rules & Policy Violations”
