| A
contract between the person who makes the booking and JaveaHolidays
comes into existence when the deposit has been paid and accepted.
The person in whose name the booking is made (the lead booker)
acts on behalf of all the persons in the party, and JaveaHolidays
accepts payment on the basis that all members of the party agree
to these conditions and terms. Payment
can be made by cheque sent to our agent/associate in the UK,
or by bank/electronic transfer directly into our bank account.
Details will be supplied at the time of booking. Alternatively,
payment can be made by credit or debit card. If you are paying
by credit or debit card, we will ask you to add an additional
charge to your payment, to be agreed at the time, to cover
bank and credit card company merchant fees.
A Surety Deposit is payable in cash (GBP sterling or Euros)
on arrival. The amount will be advised with the confirmation
of your booking. The deposit will be refunded in full upon
your departure from the property, less deductions for any
breakages, damage and/or loss of keys. The lead booker agrees
to pay the owner for the cost of repairing or replacing (as
decided by JaveaHolidays or the owner) any item belonging
to the property that is damaged due to negligence or wilful
default of the guest party during the occupation period. JaveaHolidays
has the right of access to the property at any time, for the
purpose of inspection and maintenance.
When completing the guest booking form all the names of the
party must be included together with the ages of children
and infants. The total number of guests must not exceed the
number of persons indicated on the completed form, unless
agreed in writing, in advance. If the number of guests exceeds
the maximum number specified for the property, any extra guests
that were not notified to, or agreed by, JaveaHolidays, will
be subject to expulsion from the property.
In
extraordinary cases, JaveaHolidays reserves the right to change
the property booked. Whenever possible such a change will
be notified in advance of your arrival. The alternative property
offered will be equal to or superior to the property booked.
Should the alternative property not be acceptable a full refund
of monies paid will be made. We regret we cannot pay any expenses,
costs or losses incurred by you as a result of any change
or cancellation made necessary by circumstances beyond the
control of JaveaHolidays.
JaveaHolidays
do not permit pet animals at any of their properties unless
arranged and agreed in writing in advance. There may be an
extra charge in cases where such an arrangement has been made.
JaveaHolidays
(and the property owner) promise to provide the accommodation
facilities that you have booked, and perform the services
contracted, with reasonable skill and care. We do not accept
responsibility for death, personal injury, or any failure
or deficiency in respect of your accommodation arrangements
that are not caused as a direct result of any fault on our
part, nor for failures to local power and water supplies.
It is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and
care has not been used if you wish to make a claim. In the
event of any faults or problems, you must make JaveaHolidays
aware in a timely fashion, if necessary, in writing. You are
obliged to give us the time necessary to resolve the problem.
If no complaint has been made, and you leave the property
prematurely and without the explicit agreement of JaveaHolidays,
you forfeit your rights to a refund on the rental price paid,
unless the terms of this contract have been breached. Complaints
that are not received until the end of the stay will not be
taken into consideration and no refunds will be given.
The property may not be available for occupancy until 16:00
hours on the day of arrival, although every effort will be
made for it to be ready as early as possible, subject to cleaning
and preparation being complete. At the end of your stay, the
property must be vacated by 10:00 hours on the day of departure,
unless a later departure has been agreed in advance with JaveaHolidays.
If
it becomes necessary for the reservation to be cancelled,
we require notification in writing from the lead booker. JaveaHolidays
will then acknowledge the cancellation, confirming the value
of the deposit or full payment that is forfeited.
We
expect all guests to show consideration for other people.
If, in our opinion, or the opinion of any other person in
authority, any member of your party behaves in such a way
as to cause, or be likely to cause danger, upset or distress
to any third party, or damage to the property, or in any way
damage the reputation and/or goodwill of the owner and/or
JaveaHolidays, we are entitled, without prior notice, to terminate
the occupation of the person(s) concerned. In this situation,
the person(s) concerned will be required to leave the accommodation
and we will have no further responsibility towards such person(s).
No refunds will be made, nor will we pay any expenses or costs
incurred as a result of the termination.
Some
of our properties offer TV with English speaking channels,
transmission being obtained by various means, according to
local facilities and laws. Due to circumstances such as distance,
methods of transmission, satellite positioning, signal strength,
on occasions weather, and local licence procedures, we do
not guarantee the availability of these facilities, although
we will always do our best to restore any failures that may
occur.
The
properties that we let are private dwellings, rather than
tourist residences. They therefore reflect the personal taste
of the owners and, in some cases, also the culture, traditions
and standards that make each property distinct. It is possible
that such differences may result in minor inconveniences which
cannot be accepted as complaints. Windows and patio doors
in Spain are not necessarily fitted with safety glass.
JaveaHolidays
is based in Javea, Spain. Therefore Spanish law governs this
contract and all matters arising from it. Any dispute arising
from, or connected with, your contract with JaveaHolidays
will be dealt with by the courts of Spain. |
