1. Summary/Overview This User’s Guide details how to register for and use the online Calypso Towers and Resort
Guest Registration System. Once registered owners/managers can create and manage
Guest Registration passes for the north parking garage. The guide details the experience
of both the owner/manager and the guest.
Summary
With growth comes change! The Calypso Towers Resort Community Association, Inc.,
believes it is important to develop systems and processes ahead of time to effectively
manage the property to ensure that all owners and guests have a pleasurable stay at
Calypso.
As part of the community’s long-term growth plan, we recognized the need to create a
modern, Guest pre-registration system to allow access in and out of the north parking
garage. By putting the system online, owners and rental managers can easily manage
their guests 24/7 while providing administrative control to the association during high
occupancy periods, when that is necessary.
Parking located directly underneath Tower I and Tower II is reserved for those owners who
have purchased a parking space. This parking area is managed separately from the
north parking garage. At this time, pre-registration for those spaces is not required.
Each guest will be charged a registration fee for each vehicle they plan to use while at
Calypso. The fee is inclusive of all taxes which the association is responsible for reporting.
Funds collected by registration will be used to cover the initial cost and annual
maintenance of the system. Additional funds may be deposited to the annual operating
budget or used for future growth of the community.
This User’s Guide details how to register for and use the online Calypso Towers and Resort
Guest Registration System. Once registered owners and management companies can
create and manage guest registration passes for the parking garage.
Overview
• Each unit will be mailed one radio frequency identification card (RFID card)
to use as a credential to enter and exit the garage during their stay.
• Vendors, including management companies and housekeepers, are
required to register in the association office. Vendors will be charged $10
per RFID card. Owners and Management Companies are required to notify
the association office in the event you terminate a vendor so their RFID card
can be deactivated in the system.
• Temporary visitors will park outside the north parking garage and pick up a
temporary pass. If a temporary pass is required for entry into the garage,
Please contact the Property Patrol 24x7 at 850-866-2101, or the Association
Office from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM at 850-636-5004.

ease of use. The decision to pay on behalf of the Guest and what card information
to use can be made on each individual registration creation.
H) The Guest Registration fee includes the associated taxes.

printing.

in one of two ways:
1) Follow the procedure in Section 7, Page 14, and create the multiple passes
separately. The guest will pay for each pass individually and the guest (or guests) will

The owner or manager can view all passes that have been created. Filters are available
to reduce the list of passes being examined.
You can enter “Valid Between” dates and/or “Pass identifier, Room, or Name” to search
and filter passes.

Paid Created and paid by owner/manager , No guest confirmation
Confirmed Created by owner/manager, Paid (by either party), guest HAS confirmed.
Canceled

11. Cancelling Registration Passes The owner/manager can cancel Guest registration passes that have been created and
are pending usage (Start Date/Time has not been achieved). Cancelling a pass that has
been paid for will result in a refund back to the credit card used to make the payment.
To cancel a pass, click on the pass number from the list of passes (See Section 9) and
then click CANCEL/REFUND PASS. After this action the status of this pass will be indicated
as “Cancelled.”
Revision 1.0 Page 22 of 22
12. Pre-Expiring Guest Registration Passes Should the need arise to cancel a pass that is currently in use, such as the unfortunate
event as an eviction, a pass can be prematurely expired by changing its end date. This
effectively cancels the pass and does NOT issue a refund.
To Pre-Expire a pass, click on the pass number from the list of passes (See Section 9), edit
the pass (See Section 10), and then set the EXPIRATION DATE and TIME to be some
date/time prior to the current date/time.
Example: It is presently 4/20/2018 - 6:20 PM and the EXPIRATION DATE of this pass was
originally 4/27/2018.
To Pre-Expire the pass set the EXPIRATION DATE/TIME to a value prior to 4/20/2018 – 6:20
PM and then click on “UPDATE.”
