These Terms & Conditions govern all bookings with sbs-villas.co.uk ("the Company"). Any booking made or order placed by you, whether through the Company's website or otherwise, shall be deemed an offer by you to rent the relevant accommodation subject to these terms & conditions. All bookings through our Company and all matters arising from them are subject to English law and to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. The person who makes the booking accepts these conditions on behalf of all members of the party and is responsible for all payment due from the party. Booking services with the company are currently only available to persons who are at least 18 years old. By submitting a booking you warrant and confirm to us that you have read these Terms & Conditions and agree to comply with them.

Liability:
In consideration of the fact that the Company acts only as a booking agent, the Company accepts no liability whatsoever for any aspect of the arrangements and, in particular, accepts no liability for any loss, personal injury or death however incurred. Although the Company uses all reasonable endeavours to ensure the accuracy of all information provided and the quality and facilities of the villas, we cannot accept any liability whatsoever for any problems that occur while guests occupy the villa of their choice. All information has been provided in good faith and no liability is accepted whatsoever by the Company for any misrepresentation of villa material or accommodation.

Payments:
Full payment for all villas and products including any promotional offers is required at the time of booking regardless of the product arrangements being confirmed. In the event that the Company is unable to obtain final confirmation of availability for the selected villa a full refund of the deposit paid will be made. The Company will not accept responsibility for cash sent through the post. Payment can be made by cheque or by bank transfer to our bank account. Booking confirmation together with location map for the villa will be sent by email or if requested, by post.

Where an initial deposit is paid, the balance must be paid within 2 months of the commencement date of the booking, weather demanded by us or not.  If this is not paid within 7 days of it being due, then we reserve the right to cancel the villa booking without any refund.

Cancellation by you:
In the event that you cancel the booking at any time, no refund is made whatsoever. Travel Insurance is therefore strongly recommended.

Air-Conditioning:

Weather the cost of any air-conditioning is included in the villa price, or paid for as a supplement, the units must only be used while you are in the property, with all windows and doors kept closed.  Under no circumstances must the units be left on continuously while the property is unoccupied.

Breakages & Cleanliness:

Our accommodation is made available for letting on the understanding that the property will be left clean and tidy at the time of checkout and all personal waste must be removed from the property. It is not our policy to take any security deposit however the customer will be held responsible for any damage or breakages to the property, caused by the customer and in the event of such occurrence, the incident must be reported to the villa owner or their representative immediately and appropriate compensation made. Customers are not permitted to move any furniture or equipment without prior written consent from ourselves or the villa owner. In the event of such permission being granted, it is the customers responsibility to return the same to its original position before checkout. Under no circumstances must any property for use inside the property, be moved outside.

Complaints:
Once a villa has been booked and paid for in full, the owner/s details will be provided and thereafter guests will be liasing directly with the villa owner/s upon arrival at their villa. In the unlikely event of a problem with your villa occurring, whilst you are abroad, you must inform the villa owner/s so that the matter can be put right.

Alterations by the Company:
Although the Company makes every effort to ensure that advertised descriptions are correct, it does not own any of the villas and therefore cannot control or prevent changes. Although changes to villas advertised are infrequent, the Company reserves the right to change the description of any villa or service at any time, in which case we will endeavour to notify you of all changes before commencement of the booking date, if it is practical to do so. No compensation will be payable by the Company in such cases. No claims will be accepted for costs or additional expenses incurred as a result of any changes.
