Pets/smoking Deposit
The apartments are not suitable for pets and hence pets are not allowed. Likewise we ask that any smokers only smoke on the balconies of the apartments and not in the apartment. If an apartment smells of smoke at the end of the week then the security deposit will be withheld.
Cancellation (your part)
If you need to cancel your holiday then I will endeavour to re-let the apartment as soon as I have emailed confirmation of the cancellation. If the apartment is successfully let then amounts paid will be returned to you except for the initial deposit of £100 and less further costs of sale. If you have booked more than one apartment then £100 will be retained per apartment per week for cancellations and can not be offset against other bookings.
Cancellation (our part)
If, for reasons beyond our control (that is Force Majeure such as fire or flood affecting the building or its occupation), we are unable to let the apartment to you, then we will return any and all amounts paid for the rental of the apartment. We will inform you as soon as any situation arises. In addition we will endeavour to help you find alternative accommodation. However we do not accept liability for any travel costs or other costs incurred beyond the original rental amount.
Cancellation (Covid)
If the French authorities close the resort because of Covid then we will reimburse the apartment rental on a pro-rata basis for nights unused. If the resort is open and the apartment is available for occupation but you are thwarted from reaching the resort through restrictions imposed by your country of origination then the rental amount will not be refundable unless the apartment is re-let.
Insurance
It is a requirement of the booking that adequate ski holiday insurance must be taken out at the time of booking. Please check your policy covers you in the event you have to cancel the holiday. As the apartments are let out on a regular basis to clients we cannot guarantee the security of the apartments or the ski lockers and the best thing is to obtain adequate holiday insurance.
