I see an extra charge on my credit card. Why?

We can assure you we did not charge you extra! This is a temporary pre-authorization that our Point of Sale system, Toast, requires. If you open a tab, a temporary hold will be placed on your credit card for the amount of your initial order. This will fall off your statement once the real charge goes through. Some banks drop this off the statement immediately, but others can take 4-5 days for this to happen, especially after a weekend, so please be patient. Thanks for understanding!

What is your Lateness Policy for Cabanas?

PLEASE PLAN TO ARRIVE 10 MINUTES BEFORE YOUR START TIME on your cabana rental! You can always grab a drink or put in a food order if you are early.

If you do arrive late and there is another reservation after yours, your time will be shortened to end at the original end time.

Birthday Parties, Baby Showers, Corporate Parties, Bachelor(ette) Parties... are they hard to arrange?

We make it easy! If you only need one cabana or a double cabana, you can rent it yourself online without contacting us HERE. You can bring store-bought (per health code) cupcakes or a cake for your event without notifying us in advance (NO ice cream cakes, please!). Please contact us for groups of 20+.

For larger parties and events, connect with us HERE. Packages & pricing for Special Events can be found HERE. For groups larger than 20, our Special Events department can assist you with food or bar packages or a multi-hour session. For weekend events, contact us as far in advance as possible!

Do you have a dress code?

We do have standards for venue entry on weekend evenings:

No attire with foul or graphic language or images (unless we think it's funny... just kidding. Save it for the grocery store.)
No attire that does not cover your private areas appropriately (keep them covered, for all our sakes!)
Backpacks – please leave them at home or return them to your vehicle (because some things you could have in there; alcohol - which puts our liquor license at risk; weapons; enough space to steal our ceramic pineapples - oh, it's happened!). If you have nowhere to put your backpack, please note that a search will be required.
A Valid Photo ID with your birthdate
A great attitude & an open heart that's ready for some fun!

*We reserve the right to wand everyone on weekend evenings & for large events.

*We do not deny entry to anyone unless they are underage (we take this VERY seriously); are visibly intoxicated; have the above dress & refuse to change it; refuse to put their backpack away or have it searched; or we are at capacity.

Are you handicapped accessible?

Yes, and yes!

Once inside, can we leave the venue and return without paying the Cover Charge fee again ?

There is NO guest re-entry into the venue after 9pm on Friday & Saturday nights. If you leave the venue during this time, you must pay the cover charge again.

**This rule includes Cabana Rental guests who haven't paid a cover charge and guests coming up from Kick Axe® Throwing (located downstairs) who have participated in axe throwing.**

Is there a designated smoking area?

There is a designated smoking area located outside on the rooftop deck by the Corn Hole boards. Marijuana smoking is illegal in public spaces in Washington, DC, and is strictly prohibited and grounds for removal from our venue.
