Single-Night Stays and
Last Minute Discounts
Most B&Bs Require a Minimum 2-Night Stay. We Make Some Exceptions.
While most B&Bs require a minimum of a two-night
stay, we accept Single-Night Stays Sunday - Thursday for a single night stay fee
of $10 ($25 for Penthouse). Friday or Saturday stays must be at
least two nights (Thur-Fri, Fri-Sat or Sat-Sun). We sometimes allow
a single night Friday or Saturday stay:
(1) THE WEEKEND "BOOKEND"
STAY: If the nights before
and after your single-night stay are
already booked (when you book your room)
we will allow a single night stay on Friday or Saturday. Use our reservation
calendar to check availability (single night stay fees apply, see
below).
(2) THE LAST-MINUTE
SPECIAL STAY: Beginning on Tuesday of each week you may
also reserve a single night stay for the upcoming Friday or Saturday
nights (single night stay fees apply, see
below).
AND NOW.... A WORD ABOUT OUR
RATES
Equality. All of our guests
receive the same low rates. That's right: AAA
members, active military, AARP, Costco members, astronauts, fire-fighters,
police officers, retirees, life guards, CEOs, retired military, travel
agents, politicians.... EVERYBODY enjoys the same low rates.
Single Night Stay
Fees. Sometimes we're asked why we charge a single night
stay fee. Well, we are not a commercial hotel. Time and effort go in
to greeting and orienting our guests and preparing rooms after a guest
departs. Our costs and time investment are higher for a single night
stay. So, while many B&Bs don't allow single night stays under any
circumstances, we allow them for a small additional fee. The fee is higher
for the Penthouse because of the time necessary to explain hot tub spa operation
and other Penthouse amenities. That's why a single night stay fee is always
charged - it's simply more work, time and expense for us. Our online reservation
system does not automatically add the single night stay fee, so it will not appear on your initial confirmation - the Moonlight elves will add it manually prior to check
in.
Last Minute
Discounts: Just like the airlines reduce the prices of
their unbooked seats shortly before the flight, the Moonlight elves reduce the prices of our
unbooked rooms a week or two ahead of time. The closer the day, the lower the rate (the airlines actually copied our idea - and we invented the
internet, not Al Gore). You will see those lower prices reflected on the
reservation calendar.
Our rates are based on single or double occupancy.
Third and fourth occupants are $15.00 per person. Note:
only the Beach Suite (three beds) can accommodate more than 2 guests
(don't try to sneak anybody in, the Moonlight elves will find out - they know
everything).
Rates vary by
the room, day of week and time of year - makes sense, right? - but
some folks wonder, so we thought we would note that rates are higher on the
4th of July than on a Tuesday in February. Anyhow, it's easy enough to
check rates and availability by using the calendar on our on-line
reservation system.
