Terms & Conditions

Please read our Booking and Cancellation policy carefully, as it is not common for us to make an exception for it. To avoid any misunderstandings, we would appreciate your paying attention to the following:

Property and Cancellation Policies: At the time of booking as our guest you will pay a 20% non-refundable deposit for your room reservation. The non-refundable balance is due 10 days prior to your arrival. We are a small operation and canceled rooms are not always easy to re-book at short notice. We encourage our guests to book only once you are sure of your travel dates. We thank you for planning ahead.
