Once we have received your provisional booking request, we will respond with an email or other channel (as specified by you on the booking form) confirming or otherwise your booking, specifying complete cost and giving instructions as to how to proceed with any due payment such as booking deposit. An invoice for the transaction will be issued and sent to the party leader. This will make your booking official. Please check this invoice carefully as soon as you receive it. Contact us immediately if any information which appears on the confirmation or any other document appears to be incorrect or incomplete as it may not be possible to make changes later. We regret we cannot accept any liability if we are not notified of any inaccuracies in any document within 5 working days of our sending it out.
Verbal bookings will be held for 5 Days ONLY, or as agreed with us.

3. PAYMENT
In order to confirm your stay, a deposit of 25% of the full payment (or full payment if booking within 56 days of departure) must be paid at the time of booking.
This deposit is not refundable in the event of your cancellation or failure to pay on time as set out below.
The balance of the cost of your stay must be received by us not less than 56 days (8 weeks) prior to the booking date. This date will be shown on the confirmation invoice. If you have not paid in full and on time we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you. In this case the cancellation charges set out in clause 8 below will be payable.
4. SECURITY DEPOSIT
You must pay a security deposit of £100.00 56 days before the start of your stay (or at the time of booking if this date has passed). The cost of any damage to the property or to any items in and/or at the property caused or any service charges incurred by you or any member of your party (for example telephone calls), will be deducted by us from the security deposit at the end of your stay. If no deductions are required your security deposit will be refunded in full to you 14 days after your departure from the property. If the security deposit is not sufficient to cover any damage caused or service charges incurred by you, you will be responsible for paying us any additional monies required immediately on request from us.

5. YOUR CONTRACT
A binding contract between us comes into existence when the deposit payment is paid (see clause 3 above). If you cancel after paying the deposit our normal cancellation charges will apply. This contract and all matters arising out of it are governed by Cyprus law. We both agree that any dispute arising out of or connected with your holiday will be dealt with by the Courts of Cyprus.
6. THE COST OF YOUR STAY
The price of your stay will be confirmed at the time of booking, subject to the correction of any errors. We reserve the right to correct errors in both advertised and confirmed prices. We will do so as soon as we become aware of any error.
7. CHANGES BY YOU
Should you wish to make any changes to your confirmed booking, you must notify us by email as soon as possible. Whilst we will endeavour to assist, we cannot guarantee we will be able to meet any such requests. Where we can, an additional fee may be required for any costs incurred by ourselves.
TOP
8. CANCELLETION BY YOU
Should you need to cancel your stay after the contract has begun (see clause 3 above), the party leader must immediately advise us either by cancelling online or advising us in writing. Your notice of cancellation will only be effective when we receive it in writing at our offices. As we incur costs from the time we confirm your booking and may be unable to re-sell your period of stay, the following cancellation charges will be payable. Where the cancellation charge is shown as a percentage, this is calculated on the basis of the total cost of the booking excluding amendment charges. Amendment charges are not refundable in the event of cancellation.

Special Requests: If you have any special request, you must advise us at the time of booking and clearly note it in the Special Requests section of the booking form. *Although we will endeavour to meet any reasonable requests we regret we cannot guarantee any request will be met. Failure to meet any special request will not be a breach of contract on our part. We regret we cannot accept any conditional bookings, i.e. any booking which is specified to be conditional on the fulfilment of a particular request. All such bookings will be treated as 'standard' bookings subject to the above provisions on special requests.
Medical Problems: If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability that may affect your stay, please tell us before you confirm your booking so that we can advise as to the suitability of the chosen arrangements.

18. ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE
Visitors must clearly understand that the accommodation might NOT BE AVAILABLE BEFORE 3.00p.m on the arrival date. This is because there might not be enough time for cleaning and getting the property ready for you. This might conflict with your arrival time. If this is the case, we will not object if you need to gain access to the property before 3.00pm, since we do not want to inconvenience you. If this is the case we would ask that you confine yourselves to parts of the property that are ready, so that the cleaning staff can continue with their work. Once everything is ready the property is available for you and your party.
On the day of departure the visitor normally must arrange to leave NOT LATER THAN 11.00a.m. unless otherwise agreed with the villa management/owners. This might be possible if there is a gap in the change over rental period and quests may be able to stay in the villa until a later time. Again this has to be pre-arranged with the management/owners.

19. BREAKAGES AND CLEANLINESS
The accommodation is made available for letting on the dear understanding that it is left in a THOROUGHLY CLEAN AND TIDY CONDITION at the time of vacating by the visitor. The visitor must also ensure that all waste is removed from the premises. The visitor will be held responsible for any damage or breakages that occur and such incidents must be reported to the Owner and the required compensation paid. Visitors are not permitted to move furniture or equipment without prior consent of the Owner. If approval is given to move anything, it will be the visitors responsibility to return the same to the original position before departure. Equipment must not me moved from the premises for use outside.

21. LIGHTING
You must ensure that all indoor and outdoor lightings around the villa are switched OFF at night before you retire. In addition to eating up electricity they will attract unwelcome insects and mosquitoes. Make sure to do the same before leaving the villa.

22. BUILDING WORK
Any building work which may commence in the local area is outside of our control, and we cannot be held responsible for any resulting disturbance. However, should we become aware of any building work which may reasonably be considered to aversely affect the enjoyment of your holiday we will notify you as soon as possible, and wherever possible, will offer you the opportunity to transfer to an alternative property at the advertised price. Whilst we assure you of our best endeavours to minimize any inconvenience we regret that we cannot accept any liability in this case.
23. ACCURACY OF PRINTED MATTER
While every possible care is taken in preparation of the accommodation details advertised, the visitor will fully appreciate that the human element cannot be disregarded and the Owner will not accept any liability for any loss incurred. Should an error be made and later noted all those concerned will be notified.
