Bookings

Each owner will describe their own booking process. But expect to pay a booking deposit of between. 10% - 50% of the total rental.With the balance due usually 8 weeks before the start of your holiday.
It is standard practice for them to request a damage deposit. This is refunded after your holiday, less the cost of such things as breakages, lost keys, metered charges if not included in the rental rate.
Usually booking deposits are non refundable and a sliding scale of charges for last minute cancellations after the balance has been paid.

Make sure you have the property address and directions. Know if the owner will send you a key in advance or arrange for you to be met and welcomed by a local representative or neighbour.
 
Problems
Contact the owner or local agent immediately should you encounter a problem with the property. This gives the owner chance to put things right. Don’t save complaints until you return home.
 
Check in/out times
Accommodation is usually available after 3pm on the day of arrival and vacated by 11am on the departure. This is to give cleaners, pool men etc time to prepare for incoming guests. Please check times with the property owner.
