Booking T&Cs
1. BOOKING:
Once a provisional booking of accommodation has been made, the signed Booking Form, together with the appropriate deposits, should be received within four days following the date of the booking form being issued. Only after the booking form has been received by the owner, either on email or by post, will the booking of accommodation become valid. Email confirmation of your booking will be sent to you once the form and reservation deposit has been received and a confirmation email will also follow once full payment has been taken.
All relevant documentation will be sent to you via email, it is important to check carefully all the details of your booking once you receive it. The owner will not be responsible for any information you do not receive as a result of your failure to provide a valid email address.
2. TERMS OF PAYMENT:
The Booking Form must be accompanied by a non-refundable deposit of 25% of the total booking price, with a minimum deposit of £200.
The balance of payment must be received not less than twelve weeks before the date of arrival. The owner reserves the right to regard the booking as cancelled if the balance of the price remains unpaid after the due date, and shall be entitled to retain any deposit paid. For bookings made less than twelve weeks prior to arrival date, immediate payment of the total holiday cost is required. Payments can be made by cheque or direct bank transfer. Payments can also be made via PayPal – please note that payments via this method may also incur a surcharge. Please note, that cheques are not acceptable. Remittances made by Eurocheque, or by sterling draft or cheque on a foreign bank will incur a charge of £25 to cover collection charges.
All bookings will be subject to a security deposit of £200 payable at the time of the balance payment. Guests can also opt to pay a non returnable £20 waiver fee to waive the breakage deposit. The Security Deposit will be returned to you within one week of your return on clearance by local agent.
The payment of the security deposit/waiver fee does in no way exclude you from your responsibility to take every care of your holiday accommodation. The property will be presented in good order and should be left as such. If any damage occurs (accidental, wilful, reckless or otherwise) or the property is left in an unacceptable condition, then this should be paid for by the Guest residing in the property at the time.
3. PRICES:
Prices may be increased should accommodation costs increase due to changes in the exchange rate, but no additional payments will be requested following settlement of the Final Invoice. Should surcharges imposed after the date of confirmation of the booking exceed 10% of the total accommodation cost the Client has the right to cancel the booking and we will refund in full any monies paid.
4. CANCELLATION BY THE CLIENT:
Any cancellation must be made in writing by the person who signed the Booking Form. Cancellation of accommodation will apply from the date of receipt by the Owner of the written cancellation advice. The following charges will apply: If cancellation is 12 weeks or more before departure – forfeit of deposit. If cancellation is within 12 weeks of departure or if the booking is cancelled by us due to nonpayment – 100% of total cost
5. CANCELLATION BY THE OWNER:
In the very unlikely event that specific accommodation ceases to be available as booked and the Owner is unable to offer the Client acceptable alternative accommodation on behalf of the Owner or another Owner, the Owner will refund the Client all the money paid (including the deposit), and shall be under no other liability.
6. ALTERATIONS BY THE CLIENT:
If the Client wishes to change the composition of his or her party, or to alter any arrangements pertaining to accommodation, transfers, car or bike hire, or any other arrangements undertaken on their behalf by the Owner a fee of £25.00 per alteration/per person will be charged to cover administrative costs incurred.
Should a client wish to add an additional member of the party to reside in the accommodation after the price and booking have been agreed, this will incur a charge of £50 per person per week which covers cleaning expenses and linens etc.
7. INFORMATION:
While we make every effort to ensure that descriptions supplied are accurately reproduced, we cannot accept responsibility for errors contained therein or the results thereof. Minor differences between photographs and text and actual property may arise. If we have been informed of material changes after your booking has been confirmed we will advise you before departure.

14. ‘OUT OF SEASON’ BOOKINGS:
The ‘Season’ in Kalkan runs from 1st May to 31st October. During this time building and construction work is prohibited in Kalkan. If you wish to make a booking outside of these dates, it is possible that construction projects may be going on in the area. The Company will endeavour to inform you of this and the Company will only take bookings at properties where there is no known building work going on in close proximity or any known building work expected to be completed by the holiday start date. The Company cannot be expected to know about all building projects in Kalkan and so bookings outside the ‘season’ cannot be guaranteed to be unaffected by construction works.
TERMS & CONDITIONS
The essential 'small print’. Please take the time to read these booking terms and conditions. This information is important.

COVID 19
If there is lockdown in either the UK or Turkey or if either government forbids or imposes ‘significant’ restrictions on travel at the time of your holiday, meaning no flights are available, then we can postpone your stay to, either: a) later dates in the same year or b) similar dates in the following year, in the same accommodation, subject to availability. The original booking rates will apply in the latter instance (again, subject to these terms being agreed with the property owner).
Please note - if you simply decide not to travel and there are no significant government restrictions in place at that time, moving your booking will be entirely at the owners' discretion.
The booking deposit paid is not refundable under either circumstances above, therefore you should take out adequate travel insurance at the time of booking your accommodation (see above.)
Furthermore, should international travel to Turkey not be permitted by the time your balance payment is due, we may, at our discretion, delay the balance payment date until the situation becomes clearer, rather than having to refund you the balance if it later transpires that you are unable to travel for the reasons detailed above.
