Reservations
By using this Website to make reservations with a Property, you agree to be bound by all of such Property’s standard terms and conditions and by any other policies, terms and conditions that may apply.
By using this Website to make reservations, you hereby authorize the Property to collect and process your name, contact details, and payment information solely for the purpose of fulfilling your reservation.
This website may contain typographical errors or inaccuracies and may not be complete or current. The Property therefore reserves the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice. We apologize for any inconvenience.
You may only make reservations through this Website for yourself and your guests. If you intend to book more than nine (9) rooms at the Property for the same period of stay on behalf of one or more guests, you must contact the Property directly to make the reservation. You are prohibited from using this Website for the purposes of reselling, posting, advertising or marketing reservations (whether online or otherwise) to third parties including online agents, third-party owned websites, or travel agents.
The Property reserves the right to require proper proof of identity (e.g. passports or national identity cards) from all persons checking in. The Property has the absolute discretion to refuse to check in if the identity does not match with the person mentioned in your reservation or if anyone refuses to provide the requisite proof of identity to the Property. We reserve the right to cancel or modify at our sole discretion any reservations that have been made in breach of the Terms and Conditions or for false, fraudulent or unauthorized purposes.
Cancellation Policy
The cancellation policy of any reservation may vary depending on the room rates, occupancy levels, availability or other Property requirements. The cancellation policy will normally be provided to you along with the confirmation of your reservation. Any cancellation of your reservation through this Website must comply with the cancellation policy applicable to the reservation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is our standard cancellation policy that in the event of a cancellation of your guaranteed reservation less than 24 hours prior to 6:00 pm of your scheduled arrival date (according to the local property time), or in case you fail to show up without a valid reason, the Property has the right to debit a one-night cancellation charge and any associated service fees, taxes and other charges as required by applicable laws and regulations, from the credit/debit card provided to secure the reservation and/or saved in your account.
For special rate product offers, additional cancellation terms published on the offer booking page will apply. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the special rate product offer terms and the standard terms, the special rate product offer terms shall prevail.
Credit and Debit Cards
Guests are required to provide valid payment card details—including the cardholder’s full name, card number, expiry date, card type, and verification details—solely for the purpose of fulfilling the contractual obligations of your booking, guaranteeing your reservation, and processing payments. The Property reserves the right to validate this information prior to confirming a booking. No charges will be made at the time of reservation unless prepayment, advance purchase, deposit, or a specific cancellation/no-show condition is stated in the confirmed booking terms.
The Property may place a temporary hold (pre-authorization) on a credit or debit card to secure charges for the room, incidentals, deposits, the estimated total stay amount, and applicable taxes/service charges. This processing is necessary for the performance of the contract to which you are a party. The release of the hold is subject to the cardholder’s issuing bank’s policies and processing timelines.
By providing card details, you provide your specific and informed consent for the Property to process this sensitive personal information and charge the card for: confirmed room charges, prepaid/advance purchase bookings, applicable taxes and service charges, cancellation fees, no-show fees, outstanding balances, and any damages or additional charges incurred during the stay, all in accordance with the confirmed reservation terms.
Card payment refunds, where applicable, will be processed within the Property’s standard internal processing timeframe. The actual posting time to the cardholder’s account is dependent on the policies and processing time of the issuing bank. The Property is not responsible for any bank charges, foreign transaction fees, or processing fees imposed by the card issuer.
The Property strictly protects all personal and payment information as sensitive personal information in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Cardholder information is used solely for legitimate business transactions related to Property services and is protected by reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards against unauthorized access or disclosure. Your card information is retained only for as long as necessary for transaction verification, the fulfillment of the booking purpose, or the establishment or defense of legal claims. You maintain your rights as a data subject, including the right to access, correct, or object to the processing of this information at any time.
Payment
Where applicable, you may charge the purchase of goods and services including airport shuttle arrangements, spa services or other activities to your room during your stay. You are personally liable for the full payment of all such charges which may include any applicable service charges, duties, taxes, or tariffs. You are required to pay and settle all such charges fully upon receipt of the folio during check-out.
All payments made by you are subject to your respective bank’s charges for foreign transaction fees, where applicable. Additional foreign exchange fees may also apply if any other currency, which is not from your originating issued card’s country, is selected to be charged.
If you choose to check out of the Property without settling your bill in full, you expressly and irrevocably authorize us to charge to your credit/ debit card, which was used at the time of check-in, provided to secure your reservation, or saved in your account (whichever is available), all charges you and your guests may have incurred including any damage or loss caused by you or your guests to the Property during your stay.
