As a tenant, you are required to maintain the general tidiness and cleanliness of your holiday rental accommodation. Accordingly, please leave the property in the same condition as you found it on arrival. The property is serviced following your stay, at the owner’s expense. However, if the property requires excessive cleaning, the extra cost incurred may be deducted from your security deposit.
In the event of a breakage or damage to the rental property, please report it to Getaway Rental prior to your departure. Where there is a cost involved, as the tenant, you are likely to be liable for the payment – depending on the extent of the damage.
While we take great care to faithfully manage the availability of our properties, there may be certain circumstances beyond our control where that availability changes (eg. an owner decides to sell the rental property.) We therefore reserve the right to change availability in such circumstances. However, if it impacts on a booking, we will always strive to find an appropriate alternative property or, alternatively, we will refund your rental deposit in full.
Failure to pay a deposit, or the balance of the rental, within the specified dates on your booking form can result in the loss of your booking. In this event, we reserve the right to rebook the property for an alternate tenant.
