Stipulation, entering into a contract and payment conditions. Bookings can be made by phone, through a travel agency or directly with Interhome. You will receive a written confirmation. Within ten days of receipt the booking confirmation a deposit of 30% must be paid, and full payment made four weeks prior to start date. The contract will be considered binding upon receipt of the deposit. Should there be differences in details on your booking statement and the catalogue, the details shown on your booking statement will be deemed valid and confirmed automatically upon receipt of the first payment. The booking will be cancelled, if payment has not been received within twenty days. If the booking takes place within 29 days to the start date then payment must be made immediately for the contract to be confirmed. Upon full payment of your booking statement amount, you will receive your travel documents which must be passed to the key holder. Any other requests (for example, accommodation near to each other for groups etc.) must be confirmed in writing. A booking fee of Euro 30 will be charged for each reservation. Interhome offers you its unique Cancellation Guarantee. It costs 3% of the rental fee and covers you against cancellation charges on the accommodation only if you are forced to cancel within the penality period until 2 days before departure due to illness or death of any member of the travelling party or close relatives. Valid proof must be supplied to make a claim. 3. Services and Prices The listed prices are on weekly basis relating to periods indicated in the prices column. The minimum stay period in the peak season is 7 days with arrival and departure on Saturday.

The information shown in the leaflet regarding structures present in the locality (transport, shops, restaurants, sports centres etc.) have been supplied by third parties, therefore it’s possible that any changes will not be communicated to us. The supply of water, gas and electricity can be subject to interruption. In these cases, and for adverse weather conditions, Interhome cannot be held responsible. 4. Changes to Prices and Services The apartments description and prices have been prepared with great care, however they can be subject to change, which will be communicated on booking and confirmation.

Departures, arrivals and stays cut short or extended The guest must arrive between 16.00 and 19.00, and depart by 10.00. If you are unable to arrive within this time period, contact immediately the key holder on the number shown on the travel documents, who can then, at his/her discretion, arrange another appointment. No refund will be made if the guest is unable to occupy the apartment on the correct day or time due to travel difficulties, strikes or personal reasons. The same applies in the case of early departures. To extend a stay, contact your booking office in good time. 6.

The key holder may forbid entry to outside people who are not mentioned in the contract. The tenant will occupy the apartment respecting all the rules of the good neighbour. The cleaning of kitchen utensils and materials must be done by the client, as it is not included in the departure cleaning. On departure, your deposit will be given back in full, on condition that there isn’t any damage in the apartment. 9. Complaints and Refund Requests If on arrival or during your stay, you are unhappy with the differences to the apartment which you initially booked, we advise you to resolve the problem with the key holder. If this person is unable to resolve the situation in the short term, then contact your booking office. In any case, the key holders who welcome the clients cannot decide on any refunds due. All complaints must be received by the booking office within four weeks from the last day of your stay. If this is not done, you will lose the right to claim compensation. 10.
