I'll join the chorus to say that there is no need to worry at all. I've been staying at BSV since 1997 and have always followed this procedure. Drew and Tracy and their entire family are truly honorable people. As Pat said, they go out of their way to always accommodate their guests. Keep in mind, these are their privately owned villas that they rent out. I think of it more like that, than a "business running a resort". Therefore, they do not accept credit cards. At any rate, you will love it there and staying at what a lot of us call paradise.
