WEBSITE DESCRIPTIONS

The information provided on our website and marketing materials represents our honest belief that the details shown are correct. Every reasonable effort has been made to describe each property accurately and comprehensively, and every reasonable attempt will be made to supply what has been described.
All bookings are made and accepted on the basis of these descriptions (or as subsequently varied by us), and we do not accept liability if the actual property does not meet individual expectations.

In the event that guests trigger security alarms, or damage or misuse appliances or electronics, the guest will be responsible for associated call-out fees.
These fees will be deducted from the security bond or charged to the credit card used for booking.

PROPERTY ACCESSIBILITY

Guests are responsible for reviewing all property amenities, specifications, and unique
characteristics-including environmental conditions-prior to booking to ensure the property meets their needs. Some properties may feature stairs, elevated access, or other design elements that limit accessibility.
Guests with mobility challenges or those travelling with young children are strongly encouraged to discuss requirements with us prior to booking to confirm suitability.

PROPERTY UNAVAILABILITY
If a reserved property becomes unavailable due to circumstances beyond our control, we reserve the right to
cancel the booking on behalf of the owner. In such cases, we will:

  • Offer comparable alternative accommodation, if available.
  • Refund or invoice any difference in nightly rate.
  • No further compensation will be payable.

FORCE MAJEURE
We are not liable for cancellations or disruptions caused by events outside our control, including but not limited to natural disasters, government restrictions, transport strikes, or other force majeure events.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
