Terms & Conditions of Rental

The Booking Form must be completed and signed by the party leader (hereafter called the Guest(s)). who must be over 18 years of age. The signing of the booking form shall be deemed to constitute the acceptance of the Booking and Payment Procedure plus Terms & Conditions by the Guest and shall be a warranty by the person so signing that they have the authority to act on behalf of the persons named on the booking form including any substitutions or additions by any subsequent agreed amendments to the booking.

The procedures and conditions will still apply even if for any reason the booking form has not been completed by the client, e.g. in the case of a late booking requested by telephone which necessitates immediate commitment.

The booking is not accepted until the completed and signed Booking Form together with the appropriate deposit has been received and the Acknowledgement/Receipt has been issued. If the booking is not accepted for any reason the deposit will be refunded in full. Amendments to, or cancellation of a booking by the Guest will be subject to the provisions of sections 6 and 8 of these terms and conditions.

The accommodation cannot be shared, assigned or sublet and only the persons shown on the booking form are permitted to stay in the property. Persons/children under the age of 18 years are not acceptable unless accompanied by parents or an adult.

No pets permitted

Deposits and Payments are to be made in accordance with the Booking & Payment Procedure. Failure to comply with the payment procedure will be deemed to be a cancellation by the Guest and will be subject to the cancellation charges as detailed in Section 8.

Reservations normally run Saturday to Saturday and are for a minimum of 7 nights.

The Condominium is available for occupation from 4.00 p.m. (local time) on the day of arrival until 10.00 a.m. (local time) on the day of departure. Vacating after 10.00 a.m. may incur charges equivalent to one day’s accommodation cost.

The Guest is solely responsible for any damages or breakages that may be caused to the property or to its contents and also for any loss of items in the inventory during their stay. Therefore a £200.00/$350 refundable security bond payable with the final balance, will be held against such an eventuality. The Condominium is inspected both before and at the end of each occupation and upon confirmation that all is in order, this deposit will be refunded in full.

Charges for damages / losses or any maintenance / repairs to the Condominium, equipment, amenities or fixtures necessitated by misuse will be at the discretion of THE OWNERS and will be deducted from the Security Bond. In the event of any damage / loss which is assessed to be in excess of the Security Bond, the Guest will be held responsible for full reimbursement of the outstanding amount within fourteen days of notice of such costs.
