Booking Conditions
Reservations made are subject to availability and confirmation of payment.
To confirm the reservation, the guest must make the respective payment, in accordance with the provisions for each accommodation.
The values of the reservation rates, deposit, cleaning fee or others, are those announced at each moment at the page of each accommodation.
In all accommodations, a damage deposit is required to cover any damages caused to the property and/or condominium. The retention of the deposit amount will be made at check-in, when it is in person, or within 48 hours before the start of the reservation, via online, when an express check-in is carried out. No amount will be charged to guests, consisting of a retention that will not allow them to access these funds until the retention is canceled.
If there is no damage to the property during the stay, the deposit will be canceled after check-out using the same credit card, which will take place up to 7 days after check-out.
If the property is not in the same condition, the amount of the deposit will be retained until payment of the damaged elements.
The reservation will be subject to cancellation if it is not possible to make an authorization withholding the amount of the deposit, so it is important that the guest makes sure that his credit card is valid and has sufficient funds. If it is not possible to retain the deposit, you will be notified by email or SMS and will have 12 hours to try to use another payment method.
All prices include VAT at the legal rate in force.
Payment options
Payment for reservations can be made by American Express, Visa or MasterCard credit card.
Guests are also subject to the special rules available in each accommodation.

The Accommodation Bulletin will request namely the time of arrival, the total number of people staying – so that we can provide the right amount of bed linen and bath towels – as well as mandatory information regarding foreign and border services.
Guests must indicate the exact number of people in the Accommodation Bulletin. The number of guests specified in the reservation cannot exceed the number of guests present at the accommodation. If the number of guests exceeds the limit, GuestSPA reserves the right to require guests to leave the accommodation without any compensation or refund of fees paid.
GuestSPA cannot assume any responsibility for the incorrect or non-filling of the Accommodation Bulletin.
Any attempt to alter and/or violate the original information will invalidate the Accommodation Bulletin and will be subject to cancellation of the reservation.
