Hello. We own a unit at the Villas. Service animals are covered by the ADA for public establishments, but not for rentals by private entities. The HOA has a rule against guests with pets, but that does not apply to owners. Your best bet is to reach out to the owner or realty agency and let them know you have a service animal. Exceptions can always be made.
I doubt they can legally deny you if the papers are legit.
