Terms & Conditions
- These terms apply to everyone who uses our Website. By using our Website, you agree that you are bound by these terms.
- When you make a booking, you consent to our use of your personal data in accordance with all applicable data protection laws and you warrant to us that you are authorised by every member of the Renter’s Party to consent on his or her behalf to our use of his or her personal data, in either case in accordance with the terms of our Cookies and Privacy Policy, a copy of which can be found here.
- You must ensure that all data that you load onto our Website is complete and accurate and not misleading, including, but not limited to details of all names and contact details and payment data.
- You must keep your log in and account details secret and not share them with any other person.
- Every visitor who posts comments on our Website must ensure that the comments are true and accurate and not misleading or offensive in nature.
- Although we do our best to ensure that our Website functions properly, we make no representation or agreement that it will be available at any particular time or times, or that it will function in any way. You agree that neither we, nor any of our officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents and subcontractors shall be liable for any loss or damage that you may suffer or incur if at any time our Website crashes or is unavailable, or if our Website does not function properly.
- You agree to access our Website only of the purpose for which it was designed, namely to enable us to advertise Properties for rent on a temporary basis to Renters. You agree not to take any action that is intended to or may harm the efficient running of our website or infringe our rights or of any visitor to our Website.
- With whom are you dealing when you rent a Property?
- When you rent a Property by means of our Website, you make a contract with the Owner. It is for you to satisfy yourself that the terms of the Booking Contract are appropriate for the purposes for which you use it.
- We recommend that you read the terms of the Booking Contract carefully and ensure that they are suitable for your purposes. An example of the Booking Contract can be found here.
- The Owner, is responsible for:
- complying with the terms of the Booking Contract that apply to the Owner;
- ensuring the accuracy of the photographs and description of the Property that are posted on our Website;
- delivering the services agreed to be provided to you when you book; and
- delivering any additional services that are agreed to be provided to you after you book.
- The Owner specifies:
- the accommodation cost;
- the times at which the Property is available for rent;
- Whether or not the Property is available for immediate booking (so that, if it is not, the Owner must confirm availability before the booking is made);
- Whether the Owner requires, and if he does, the amount of any cash deposit you must pay (which we call a “Refundable Breakage Deposit”), or whether he is willing for you to pay for our Non-Refundable Breakage Waiver instead of a cash deposit.
- the terms on which the Renter may occupy the Property during his Stay (which will be on the basis of our Booking Contract); and
- any additional services that he is willing to offer during the Stay, such as cleaning services, welcome packages, subscription television and other services and the like.
- Prices
- The Owner sets the accommodation cost and the prices for the other services that are offered.
- Occasionally, an Owner may update the prices before a booking is made. You should always check the website for the prices at the time of your booking. Very occasionally, an Owner may change the prices for your Stay after your booking is made. In this case, you may have a right to cancel in accordance with the terms of the Booking Contract.
- In addition to the prices set by the Owner, you may be liable to pay other charges to the Owner when you make your booking. You can see these charges before you book by logging in to your account. They may include charges for additional services that you agree to buy from the Owner when you make your booking, such as charges for cleaning, airport pick-up, in-Property chef, pool heating and the like, and charges we make to the Owner when the booking is made.
- You may be liable to pay the Owner, in addition, for other services that you use during your Stay.
- If your booking is cancelled, you may, nevertheless, be liable to pay any charges that the Owner is liable to pay to third parties (including us).
- Making payments
- Our Website allows you to make a booking only if the Owner has confirmed that the Property is available for instant booking or, if, after you have made a booking request, the Owner has confirmed that the Property is available for booking.
- When a Renter makes a booking, the Renter becomes liable to pay all sums payable under the Booking Contract when they become due. If the Renter is sharing the costs of the booking with other members of the Renter’s Party, it is, nevertheless, the responsibility of the Renter to make those arrangements. The Renter alone is responsible for performing the obligations in the Booking Contract and for ensuring that all monies are paid to the Renter. If the Renter is changed, using our System, the original Renter agrees to ensure that the original Renter and any subsequent Renter are jointly and severally liable under the Booking Contract.
- We act as the agent of the Owner to receive payment of the Deposit, rent due under the Booking Contract and any Refundable Breakage Deposit that you pay. We consider it important for your protection that you do not pay these sums directly to the Owner, but rather to us. We hold the sums you pay by way of accommodation cost for the Owner and release them to the Owner only when we consider, in our sole discretion, that it is safe for us to do so. We hold any Refundable Breakage Deposit until the period for making claims against the Renter has expired, or, if a claim for loss or breakages has been made, until the claim has been agreed or determined. You agree that we may pay to the Owner from the Refundable Breakage Deposit the amount of any loss or breakages and return any balance to you.
- We do not pay interest on any sums paid to us.
- Sometimes you may agree to pay for additional services (such as cleaning and laundry services, pay per view tv services, entertainments and the like) for which payment is to be made directly to the Owner. We recommend that you take care to ensure that you make payments to the Owner or his duly authorised representative and that you obtain a receipt for these additional payments.
- What means of payment do we accept?
- Our Website shows the symbols of the payment service providers whose cards and payment systems we accept.
- What happens when you make a booking?
- When a Booking is made, the Renter becomes liable to pay all sums payable under the Booking Contract and the Owner becomes liable to make the Property available for a Stay in accordance with the terms of the Booking Contract.
- Cancellation and changes
- Under the Booking Contract, the Owner and the Renter may be entitled to cancel the booking. On occasion, an Owner may need to change the terms of the Booking Contract. Please refer to the terms of the Booking Contract, an example of which may be found here.
- If you cancel a Booking Contract, the Booking Contract should state whether you are entitled to a full or partial refund. You agree that if the Owner has incurred or is liable to pay costs to a third party (including us), such costs may not be refunded when you cancel.
- If the Owner cancels a Booking Contract, or if you do not agree with any changes that an Owner makes to a Booking Contract and then cancel the Booking Contract, you may be entitled to a full refund.
- Our liability to the Renter and the Renter’s Party
- To the fullest extent permitted by law you agree that:
- Neither we, nor any of our officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents and subcontractors shall be liable to the Renter and/or any member of the Renter’s Party for any loss or damage suffered by such person as a result of the use of our website or the services provided pursuant to it, except to the extent that such loss or damage is proven to be caused by our negligence or that of our officers, directors, shareholders and agents;
