BOOKING
CONDITIONS For
the purposes of reserving, booking and payment all correspondence and
confirmations will be made by e-mail unless an e-mail address is not available.
In that case confirmation will be made in writing, by mail. 1.
RESERVATIONS, BOOKING AND PAYMENT When you have
confirmed availability of the dates you require you may make a Reservation. We
will hold the Property for you for 7 business days from the date of the
Reservation to allow you the time to fax or mail the Booking Form to us. If your
Booking Form is not received within 7 business days, we will release the
Property for rental by others. At the time of
making the Reservation please confirm the Rental Price of the property with us.
If your Booking spans two seasons, the Rental Price that applies is the
appropriate seasonal rate for the beginning of each week of your vacation. The Rental
Price is payable in U.S. Dollars and will be confirmed in our initial response
to you. Although it is rare for Rental Prices to be altered after having been
set for the year, these prices can be changed without notice. To confirm your
booking we must receive payment of a 50% deposit (if you are booking more than 8
weeks in advance of your vacation) or the full holiday rental amount (if you are
booking less than 8 weeks before the vacation begins) within 7 days of the date
of your Reservation. Kindly send a check
written to E. P. Fenik to: Casa
d'Oliva Once we have
received your completed Booking Form and the payment into our account, we will
confirm your Booking. If you have omitted any details on the Booking Form we
will ask you to send that information. Failure to provide all the details
by the due date of the final rental payment could result in cancellation of your
Booking and the Cancellation Policy (outlined in below) will be put into effect. If you are Booking
more than 8 weeks in advance of your vacation, we will send you a reminder for
the second 50% payment which is due 8 weeks prior to the beginning of the
rental. We will send you confirmation when this payment is received. If the
balance due is not received 8 weeks prior to your rental, we reserve the right
to cancel your holiday and apply the Cancellation Policy detailed in Section 2
below. Shortly before your departure, we will send you directions to Casa
d’Oliva as well as other information about your rental. 2. CANCELLATIONS -If
your wish to cancel your vacation, you must notify us in writing or by e-mail.
We will try our best to re-rent the Property. If we are successful, we will
return your monies less a charge of 15% of the total vacation rental amount for
advertising and communications. If we are unsuccessful and you have given
us at least eight weeks notice before the beginning of your holiday, then only
your Booking deposit will be forfeited. Should we not have success and you have
given us less than eight weeks notice before the beginning of your vacation, the
entire amount will be forfeited. Although it is
highly unlikely that we will have to make changes to confirmed Bookings, it may
happen and we will inform you at the earliest possible date of any alterations
to your Booking. If for any reason beyond our control we are unable to provide
you with the rental we will cancel your booking and the full amount paid for the
Property will be refunded. Neither the Owner nor the Keyholder are liable for
any cancellation charges for travel arrangements such as transportation or any
other costs. 3. DAMAGE DEPOSIT The property owner
recognizes that accidents happen, and therefore require a deposit of 400.00
Euros (payable in cash in European Euros or US dollars). This will be given directly to
the Property Owner or Keyholder when you arrive. You may be denied access to the
vacation property if you do not have these funds on your arrival. The deposit
will be refunded on your departure after an inspection, unless any deductions
have to be made for items that must be replaced or repaired. Please advise the
Keyholder immediately if any damage occurs. 4. THE REST
