Booking Conditions

Booking

A deposit of 35% of the lease is required to book the property. The lease contract becomes valid only with the booking confirmation of Villastolove. The balance must be paid at least 45 days before the starting date of the lease period. In case of short term booking, 40 days or less before the beginning of the stay, the total amount is due immediately. If the contract has to be changed or cancelled by reasons of major force, the liability of Villastolove is limited to the refund of the amount paid.

Numbers of people

The number of people must not exceed the number of sleeping place indicated in the web site. Should the key holder find more persons than those stated, it is totally up to his discretion to ask the clients to vacate the house.

Damage deposit

A security deposit is payable upon arrival to the key holder. This is to cover the cost of any damage or breakages during your stay to the property. This amount less any applicable claims, will be returned to you on the morning of departure. Failure to pay the deposit can result in the key holder refusing entrance to the house. Deposit can be given in cash or cheques.

Cancellation policy

  • In case of cancellation 90 days prior to the arrival the deposit paid will be refunded;
  • In case of cancellation from 89 to 45 days prior the arrival the deposit paid will not be refunded;
  • In case of cancellation from the 44 day to the day of arrival the entire paid amount will not be refunded.
