Advance Reservations

Reservations can be made up to one (1) year in advance, however properties are not guaranteed.  In the event that the reserved unit is no longer in our rental inventory, your reservation will be moved to a similar unit at the same rate. Properties are subject to change without notice.  Rates and dates are not guaranteed until the signed rental contract is received by Luxury Villa Collection and a deposit of 50% has been received.  The balance is due 30 days prior to arrival. The advance payment is not a damage deposit. The reservation agent reserves the right to correct errors in pricing and amenities until a signed contract is completed.

Reservations will not be made to students or singles under the age of twenty-five. Underage drinking and/or partying are not allowed in any of the rental units. Parents must accompany their children under the age of twenty-five at all times. Non-compliance of these rules and regulations will result in immediate eviction with no return of any funds paid. Please contact a representative with any questions regarding this policy. The person signing the contract must occupy the premise the entire length of the reservation.

 

Cancellation

If reservations for periods other than the weeks of the Christmas and New Years holidays are canceled at least sixty (60) days before the Check-In Time and Date, then all funds paid by Tenant, including the Advance Deposit, will be refunded.

Luxury Villa Collections does not issue refunds for cancellations made less than sixty (60) days from the arrival date or for reservations during Christmas and New Years without the purchase of Travel Guard Travel Protection Insurance.

Neighborhood Rules / HOA

Most homes reside in residential neighborhoods controlled by a Home Owner Association. These associations have very strict rules that must be respected. Please contact a Luxury Villa Collections representative to ensure compliance, as most violations warrant a fine that the guest will be responsible for paying. Please do not place any towels or clothing on the terrace ralings to dry.  

 

Liability

Use

Any use of the dwelling other than residential use during a family vacation must be approved by an Luxury Villa Collections agent. If the dwelling is to be used for any event such as weddings, receptions, "parties" or large gatherings, the guest agrees to submit a request for approval to the agent and adhere to the agent's determination on that request. If the agent approves the event, the guest may be required to pay an additional deposit. If the guest misrepresents an event to the agent (said misrepresentation to be determined by the agent), the guest agrees that the agent may refuse occupancy or have the dwelling vacated and that the guest will not be entitled to a refund. Equipment occasionally malfunctions and cannot be guaranteed one hundred percent (100%) of the time. A Luxury Villa Collections agent will correct the problems as soon as possible.
