BOOKING CONDITIONS


Bookings are made with Theme Park Holidays S.L. trading as Vacation Villas and yourself.

1. Your booking

Once you have made a provisional reservation with us, we require you to complete our booking form. This must be signed by the first named person on the booking form (the party leader), who must be at least 18 and authorised to make the booking on the basis of these booking conditions by all the persons named on the booking form. All correspondence is sent to the party leader who is responsible to us for all payments in respect of the booking.

On receipt of the booking form and deposit as referred to in clause 2 below, we will send written confirmation of your reservation to you. Accommodation is reserved only for the use of persons named on the confirmation invoice, so please check this carefully, notifying us immediately if any detail is incorrect.

2. Payment

A deposit of 30% of the total of your accommodation rental must be paid at the time of booking. If you book within eight weeks of departure the full amount is due immediately.

The balance of your holiday cost is due not less than eight weeks prior to departure. This date will be shown on the confrimation invoice. If all payments due are not paid in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your holiday as cancelled by you, retain the deposit held and require you to pay the cancellation charges as specified in clause 4.

3. Your holiday accommodation

This is reserved exclusively for the people named on the confrimation invoice and no other persons whatsoever are permitted to stay there unless this has been agreed with us in writing and appropriate payments made.

Local communities expect certain standards of behaviour; clients are required to observe them.

You must vacate the property during the morning on the day of departure to enable cleaning and preparation to be completed prior to the arrival of new guests. This is normally 10am but the exact timing will be shown on your confirmation invoice.

Should you be responsible for breakages, loss or damage of any item at the property during your stay, a charge will be made locally or on your return home to cover the cost of replacement.

4. If you cancel your holiday

If you or any member of your party cancels the booking, this must be done in writing by the party leader and sent by registered post or fax. All cancellations are subject to a charge payable by you. This is expressed below as a percentage of the total accommodation rental. Cancellation received before departure:
More than 56 days Deposit only
56-43 days 30%
42-29 days 50%
28-15 days 75%
Less than 14 days 100%

5. If we change or cancel your holiday

It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your holiday, but occasionally circumstances beyond our control might make it necessary to make changes both before and after bookings have been confirmed. If we have to change your accommodation for any reason, we will always do our best to provide an alternative of at least a similar or better standard to that booked. If we have to make a significant change we will tell you as soon as possible and if there is time before departure, we will offer you the choice of the following options:
(i) accepting the changed arrangements, or
(ii) purchasing another available holiday from us with you paying or receiving a refund in respect of any price difference, or
(iii) cancelling, in which case you will receive a full and quick refund of all monies you have paid to us.

In addition, wherever there is a major change to your accommodation caused by anything other than a force majeure (see below), we will pay compensation as follows:-

More than 56 days Nil
56-43 days £10
42-29 days £15
28-15 days £25
Less than 14 days £30

Compensation is per person on the booking form, excluding infants.

Important note: Compensation will not be payable if we are obliged by force majeure to change or cancel your holiday. In these booking conditions, force majeure means war, threat of war, riot, civil strife, industrial dispute, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, flood, adverse weather conditions or any other circumstances beyond our control. Please note that we cannot be held liable for loss of main services such as electricity or water supplies, nor any actions taken in the vicinity of your accommodation by any authority over whom we have no control. Similarly, you should be aware that there may be occasions when an advertised facility is either modified or not available. Such situations may be dictated by local circumstances, necessity for maintenance (eg swimming pools), unsuitable weather conditions and other circumstances beyond our control. If we are advised of this, we will endeavour to inform you in advance, but cannot be held liable in such circumstances.

6. Insurance

We consider travel insurance to be so essential that it is a condition of booking that you have taken out comprehensive insurance cover. Please read your policy details carefully. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have adequate cover.

7. If you have a complaint

In the unlikely event that you have a complaint whilst on holiday, it is a legal requirement that you immediately inform the relevant supplier (eg villa manager) who will endeavour to put things right. If you are not completely satisfied with the solution offered or provided, you must immediately make this known in writing to the villa manager. If you fail to follow this simple procedure, your entitlement to compensation, if any, will be reduced or cancelled because you will not have taken reasonable steps to mitigate your loss and we will not have been given a full opportunity to investigate and rectify the problem.
