Book direct. Skip the fees. Talk to a real person.<\/h1>\n

Same suite. Same dates. Same heated pool. Booked direct on sundialsuites.com, you’ll pay roughly 12-18% less than the same listing on Airbnb or Vrbo after fees and taxes settle.<\/p>\n

We don’t run a complicated rewards program. We just took the OTA fee off the price.<\/p>\n

\n

How the math actually works<\/h2>\n

Here’s a real example. A 4-night stay at Tropical Tides over a typical summer weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/th>\nAirbnb<\/th>\nVrbo<\/th>\nDirect on sundialsuites.com<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Nightly rate<\/td>\n$295<\/td>\n$295<\/td>\n$295<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
4 nights<\/td>\n$1,180<\/td>\n$1,180<\/td>\n$1,180<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Cleaning fee<\/td>\n$135<\/td>\n$135<\/td>\n$135<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Service fee (OTA)<\/td>\n$182<\/td>\n$145<\/td>\n\u2014<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Taxes<\/td>\n$105<\/td>\n$103<\/td>\n$99<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Total<\/strong><\/td>\n$1,602<\/strong><\/td>\n$1,563<\/strong><\/td>\n$1,414<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
You save<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n$149\u2013$188<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The cleaning fee and the nightly rate are the same. The difference is the OTA service fee. We’d rather you keep that money.<\/p>\n

\n

What direct guests get<\/h2>\n

Best Rate Guaranteed.<\/strong> If you find your dates priced lower on Airbnb, Vrbo, or anywhere else, send us a screenshot and we’ll match it. We don’t make you do the homework \u2014 but if you do, we’ll honor it.<\/p>\n

No service fees, no booking fees, no surprises.<\/strong> The price you see at checkout is the price you pay. Florida law requires us to display all-in pricing; we go a step further and bake the math into the rate so it’s clear from the moment you pick your dates.<\/p>\n

Talk to the owners.<\/strong> Reanna picks up. We’re three minutes from the door. Texting Reanna gets you a real human inside business hours, and a fast response after.<\/p>\n

Welcome perks.<\/strong> A small thank-you on the counter when you arrive. Early check-in by request when the calendar allows. Late check-out the same way.<\/p>\n

Repeat-guest discount.<\/strong> Booked with us before? Your second direct booking is 10% off, no code-hunting required \u2014 we’ll send the link in your post-stay email.<\/p>\n

\n

Why we run it this way<\/h2>\n

We don’t have anything against the OTAs. They’re how a lot of people first find a place. But once you’ve stayed somewhere and you trust it, paying an extra $150 to a third party doesn’t make sense for anyone except the third party.<\/p>\n

So we made our direct site the better deal. Lower price. Faster contact. The same property, the same owners, the same standard for the stay. If we did our part, you’ll come back. If you come back direct, we’ll keep the price gap honest.<\/p>\n

That’s the whole arrangement.<\/p>\n

\n

    Best Rate Guarantee \u2014 fine print<\/h2>\n

    If you find an identical booking (same suite, same dates, same guest count) at a lower all-in total on Airbnb, Vrbo, or another OTA, send us a screenshot before you book. We’ll match the lower rate and add the direct-only welcome perks. Offer good before booking \u2014 we can’t refund the difference after a direct reservation is confirmed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
