Driftwood has Noiseaware monitors installed in the home and by the pool to monitor noise levels to ensure our property does not violate the local ordinances. These monitors, recommended by VRBO, do not record or transmit any sound. Therefore Driftwood (and really all of HHI) is not a good place to have your spring break/graduation party. -- CAMERAS & MONITORING -- Driftwood has two Ring cameras at the front of the property in plain view to monitor cleaning, pool services, HVAC services, repair services, garbage collection, etc. One camera is the doorbell located at the front door.
