By signing the booking form and paying a deposit, the client accepts the terms and conditions set out below, both personally and on behalf of all persons intending to occupy the premises, whether or not they have signed the booking form. The client undertakes to inform all such persons of the terms and conditions and ensure that they abide by them
Terms
Acceptance of Terms and Conditions
The contract is made when the owner confirms the booking. The client will make full payment no less than 10 weeks before the arrival date and must include the full rental amount (minus the booking deposit) and a security deposit of £200/$300. If the client has not paid the balance of all monies by the due date, the owner reserves the right to give notice in writing that the booking is cancelled. The deposit that has been paid will not be refunded.
Payment of Balance
Cancellation by the Client
If the client wishes to cancel at any time, they must do so in writing. If the cancellation is received by the owner more than 60 days before the arrival date, the client will lose their deposit. If cancellation is received by the owner between 30 and 60 days before the arrival date, the client will be charged 50% of the rental price. If cancellation is received less than 30 days before the arrival date, the client will be charged 100% of the rental price.
A security deposit of £200/$300 must be paid no later than 10 weeks before the arrival date. This deposit is refundable provided the owner receives a satisfactory report from the owner's management company confirming that there has been no loss of or damage to the property or its contents. The owner will refund the balance due within 30 days of the departure of the client. The liability of the client is not limited to the amount of the deposit and in the event that loss or damage exceeds the amount paid, this amount will be charged to the client.
Security Deposit
The client agrees to be a considerate tenant, to take good care of the property and to leave the same in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period. Although cleaning on departure is included in the rental fee, the Owner reserves the right to make a deduction from the security deposit if the client leaves the property in an unacceptable condition. The client also agrees not to act in any way that could cause disturbance or nuisance to those residents in the neighbouring properties.
Duty of Care
The client shall immediately report to the Owner or the Owner's Management Company any defects in the property or breakdown in the equipment, plant, machinery or appliances in the property and arrangements for repair or replacement will be made as soon as possible. The Owner will not consider any complaints that are raised after the rental period has ended.
Complaints or Problems
The owners or their agents will not be liable for loss or delay occasioned by any of the following: strikes, riots, political unrest, hostilities, war or threat of war, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, fire, flood, technical/weather problems with transport, aircraft grounding, closure of airports or ports, weather conditions or any other event beyond the owners or their agents control.
Force Majeure
The owners strongly recommend that the client takes out adequate comprehensive insurance, including cancellation cover, to cover their party for all of their personal property and for personal injury however caused. The client accepts that it is their responsibility to insure themselves in all respects and that the owner will not accept any claims whatsoever.
Holiday Insurance
The rental period begins at 4pm on the first day of rental and ends at 10am on the last day of rental. Whilst the owners will be as flexible as possible in accommodating early arrivals or late departures, but they cannot be guaranteed. The owner is not obliged to offer the accommodation before the time stated and the client is not entitled to remain in occupation after the time stated.
The accommodation is reserved exclusively for the people named on the booking form and no other persons whatsoever are permitted to stay there unless this has been agreed with the owners or their agents in writing. Failure to comply with this requirement will be viewed as a breach of contract and is likely to result in the client being evicted from the property. In this circumstance, there would be no refund of rent paid.

If the Management Company find any evidence of pets during the stay, this will be regarded as a serious breach of contract and the client may be evicted immediately.

This will include but is not limited to, professional cleaning of all soft furnishings, linens, carpets and de-odorising costs.

Games Room - Supervision of children
The client agrees to supervise children at all times in the games room and agrees not to leave children in the room unsupervised. The client agrees to meet the full cost of any repairs to the Games Room itself or its equipment caused by their use or misuse.

Alarms
The client agrees not to tamper with any of the alarms in the property. The smoke alarms are tested regularly (at least monthly). The alarms on the doors and windows that lead to the pool area are fitted in accordance with Florida Law and are there to prevent young children entering the pool area unsupervised.
