Reservations for short term holiday accommodation are accepted by Private Properties Booking Agency of PO Box 505, Cottesloe, WA 6911 (“the Booking Agent”) as agent for the Owner of the Property and to which bookings the following terms and conditions shall apply:
CHANGES TO HOLIDAY BOOKINGS: Where possible, PPBA will accept certain changes to a booking after a booking has been confirmed with a deposit. Changes such as moving from one property to another after the final payment has been made will only be possible under exceptional circumstances. In such cases an administration fee of $50.00 may be charged.
CANCELLATION: Once your booking has been confirmed and receipted by PPBA your deposit is non-refundable. If the booking is cancelled in writing more than six weeks from the date of commencement of your holiday you will be released from the liability for the full balance of hire. The deposit is non-refundable.
If we receive written notice of cancellation less than six weeks prior to the date of commencement of your holiday and we are successful in finding guests to fill your place at the holiday home you will be released from the liability for the full balance of hire. The deposit will not be refunded.
The Booking Agent recommends that the Guest takes out comprehensive holiday cancellation and protection insurance with a reputable insurance company to cater for any unforeseen circumstances, as once the booking has been made and confirmed, the Guest will be responsible for payment of the full rental whether or not occupation of the Property occurs.
RENTAL CONTRACT The rental contact is between the Guest and the Owner of the Property for which the accommodation booking is made and is subject to the terms and conditions herein. The contract for accommodation shall not be effective until the Booking Agent sends the Guest written confirmation of the booking. The Guest acknowledges that the Booking Agent acts as a booking agent for the Owner only and not as a principal.
DEPOSIT The accommodation booking will not be confirmed by the Booking Agent until the Guest’s deposit payment is received and cleared. If the accommodation booking is made within six (6) weeks of the date of commencement of the Guest’s proposed holiday, the full rental payable for the Property is required together with any bond, credit card information and any other payment applicable.
FINAL PAYMENT The full amount payable in respect of the Property rental shall be paid at least six (6) weeks prior to the date of commencement of the booking. If the full payment has not been received by the Booking Agent at least twenty eight (28) days prior to the start of the rental period, then the Booking Agent and the Owner reserve the right to cancel the booking without notice and the Guest will forfeit the Guest’s deposit which will be non-refundable in such circumstances.
GUEST’S OBLIGATIONS IN RESPECT OF THE PROPERTY The Guest shall be responsible for the Property during the Guest’s stay. The Guest shall take all reasonable care of the Property and at the end of the stay shall leave the Property including all utensils, fixtures, fittings and equipment on, in or about the Property in a clean and tidy condition. The Guest shall be liable for any breakages or damage caused to the Property or any part thereof or any of the chattels therein that may occur during the Guest’s occupation of the Property and all costs of repair and replacement thereof shall be payable to the Booking agent or the Owner upon demand. Any damage or breakage to any part of the Property or any of the chattels therein shall be reported to the Local Agent, Booking Agent or Owner as soon as practicable after the damage occurring thereto.
GUEST’S PROPERTY All personal belongings, baggage, vehicles and other property of the Guest of any description shall be the risk of the Guest at all times and neither the Booking Agent nor the Owner accepts any responsibility for any loss or damage thereto.
PARTY SIZE The Guest may only allow the Property to be occupied by the number of persons nominated in the Guest’s application and under no circumstances shall the number of people occupying the Property be greater than that appearing on the Guest’s application or the booking confirmation whichever is the lesser. The Booking Agent and Owner reserve the right to refuse occupation of the Property to the Guest if the condition on the number of people intended to occupy the Property is not observed.
RIGHT TO REFUSE OR REVOKE BOOKINGS The Booking Agent and the Owner reserve the right to revoke or refuse to honour any property accommodation booking which may in the opinion of either party (and at their sole discretion) be unsuitable for the Property concerned.
REPRESENTATIONS The Guest acknowledges that the Booking Agent has used its best endeavours to describe the Property to the Guest within the limited extent of the communications between the Guest and the Booking Agent and the Booking Agent shall not be liable to the Guest in any respect should the Guest consider the Property to be unsuitable for any reason whatsoever.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY All information in respect of the Property contained in the Booking Agent’s website is believed to be correct, at the time of the printing, however all details are subject to change by the Booking Agent and/the Owner without notice. The Booking Agent will not accept any responsibility for any alterations to the Property or any part thereof beyond the Booking Agents control or any liability for any matter or occurrences beyond the Booking Agents reasonable control including damage caused by extreme weather conditions, break down of appliances, wiring, plumbing, invasion of pests, or any act or omission on the part of the Owner causing loss, accident or injury to the Guest or any one or more of them.
AVAILABILITY OF PROPERTY The short term accommodation contract negotiated by the Booking Agent and made between the Guest and the Owner is made on the understanding that the Property and its facilities as stated in the booking confirmation will be available as represented to the Guest. Should any events whatsoever arise beyond the reasonable control of the Booking Agent which render the Property uninhabitable (for example flood, fire, storm, tempest, etc) then the Booking Agent may have to cancel the Guest's booking for the Property. Should such circumstances arise then the Booking Agent will endeavour to relocate the Guest to a holiday home of similar standard to the property in the same area. Where this is not possible, the Booking Agent will refund all monies paid by the Guest in respect of the Property. Upon refund of the monies paid, the guest shall have no further claims whatsoever against the Owner of the Property or the Booking Agent.
