ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Introduction

The terms of sale as set out below form an integral part of the contract between you and Tropical Home. Please read the following information carefully.

2. Registration, signature of the contract and payment terms

Reservations can be made to our services, in writing, by telephone, on our website or through an organization with a collaboration agreement with Tropical Home. A deposit of 25% of the total amount must reach us within 72 hours from the reservation date. The contract will be considered as concluded upon receipt of the deposit. In the absence of payment within 72 hours, Tropical Home will consider that you have cancelled your stay. The balance is due no later than 30 days before the start of the stay. In case of late bookings, less than 30 days before the start of the stay, the entire invoice is due on the day of booking. The conclusion of the contract is therefore subject to receipt of this payment in full.

Any customer who has not paid the balance on the agreed date will be considered as having canceled his stay. Tropical Home will consider itself free from any obligation. The accommodation will be offered again for sale and no refund will be made.

Upon receipt of the payment and before the beginning of the stay, Tropical Home will send you the contact details of the person in charge of welcoming you and all information to go to the accommodation.

3. Prices

Any special services you have requested will be paid on arrival.

Tropical Home endeavor to ensure that all the information on his website is accurate, however occasionally changes and errors occur and Tropical Home reserves the right to correct details in such circumstances. Tropical Home makes every effort to make sure that descriptions, photographs of furniture and fittings etc. are accurate, however there may sometimes be changes Tropical Home is unaware of, and therefore vary from his website copy and photographs.

9. Complaints and claims

If, on arrival, the tenant finds that the rental is not in conformity with what was foreseen, or if he finds any defects, he must immediately inform the person in charge of the reception. Should this person not be able to remedy the situation within a reasonable time, the tenant should inform the Tropical Home office. These same rules apply for defects observed during the stay. The person in charge of the reception can receive your complaints, see them and try to remedy them but is never able to judge the merits of the claims and the possible compensation.

Complaints and claims for compensation are only admissible if they are submitted in writing, with supporting evidence, within a maximum of eight days after the end of the stay and directly to the Tropical Home office.

If these rules are not respected, the tenant loses all right to compensation.

Should the alternative holiday home be of a lower price, the price difference will be refunded. Should it not be possible to find a satisfactory solution due to a lack of available properties or due to the non-acceptance of the alternative holiday home by the tenant, the total rent or a part of the rent will be refunded according to the degree of liability determined by Tropical Home.
