Booking Details:

Check in and out times: Regular check in is from 2.00pm. Check out is 11.00am. Further, we cannot guarantee that a property will be ready at the check in time. We will endeavour to have the property ready, however, circumstances may sometimes cause

delays. There will be no refund or credit if a property is not ready at the said time. We may be able to offer an early check in or late check out – this will attract a charge. Paying however, does not guarantee that this agreement can be honoured. If we are unable to honour early check in or late check out due to a back to back booking or unforeseen circumstances, a full refund of the extra fees charged will be provided. Unauthorised early

check in or late check out will be charged at a minimum of $50.

Changes to Booking: The tariff is for the maximum occupancy number or upon prior agreement the number of guests detailed on our confirmation email. If there is a change or discrepancy, you will need to contact us to make changes and ensure that those changes are documented. By paying a deposit, the guest is reserving for specific dates. The dates and the property cannot be changed, doing so would effectively cancel the original reservation and cancellation terms will apply. However, we may be able to transfer your booking to different dates or reduce the stay, at our discretion.
