Rental Agreement - Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions clarify The Owner's/Property Manager Obligations to The Renter, The Renter's obligations to The Owner/Property Manager, and in the very unlikely event of any disputes, will be used as the basis for any resolution.
Please read them carefully before confirming your booking.
Check-In: From 4:00 PM
Check-Out: Before 10:00 AM
(Any check-out after 10am will occur in extra charge)
An earlier Check-In and later Check-out may be possible upon request, on a case by case basis.
Acceptance of these Terms and Conditions binds a contract between the following two parties:
The Rental Applicant (The Renter) and the property Owner/Property Manager (The Owner).
1. Party Members
All persons listed on the Rental Agreement or added subsequently by The Renter will be bound by the terms of this agreement. Occupancy of the property is restricted to those names listed on the Agreement or added subsequently by The Renter. The Rental Applicant is considered to be the Lead Renter and will assume full responsibility for all members of the Rental Group throughout the rental period. Information or instructions relating to this rental will be communicated to the Rental Applicant only and not to any third-party member of the Rental Group.
2. Payments
A Reservation will be confirmed by The Owner once the application has been approved and initial or full payment has been processed.
For reservations of one day or more, if the reservation is made 30 days or more before the rental commences, an initial rental deposit payment of 20% of the rental fee will be due at the time of booking. If a reservation is made less than 30 days before the rental commences, or the reservation is less than a full week’s duration, the full rental fee must be paid at the time of booking. In the event of a reservation not being accepted by The Owner, all fees paid will be refunded immediately.
No reservation may commence without full payment being cleared.
Once a reservation is received and accepted by The Owner, The Renter is liable for payment of the balance of the rental fee 30 days before occupation of the property. Non-payment by the due date will be treated as a cancellation and the deposit will be forfeited.
There is an extra charge for Barbecue Grill and pool heating. This must be requested at the time of booking.
3. Protection Fee
A Protection Fee is required for all bookings.
All bookings/reservations are required to include protection for accidental damage to the interior of the vacation rental home or condominium. The Damage Protection Fee provides protection for accidental damage occasioned by guests and/or their named occupants during their stay.
It provides protection against any accidental damage to the interior of the vacation rental home or condominium unit, including furniture, furnishings, and fixtures. Coverage becomes effective on the confirmed guest arrival date and at the confirmed guest check-in time, and coverage terminates at 10:00 AM on the confirmed guest departure date. Any accidental damage must be both, reported immediately to the assigned Intteli Fun Rentals guest relations representative by the registered guest during their stay, and acknowledged in writing by Intteli Fun Rentals for coverage to be effective. The Accidental Damage Protection Fee combined coverage is limited to payment for covered damages not exceeding U$500.00, and the registered guest is responsible for payment of any amount exceeding U$500.00. The Accidental Damage Protection Fee is provided by and administered through Intteli Fun Rentals and is not an insurance policy.
