For Client:
If a client wants to cancel a booking that has been confirmed (meaning the online deposit has been payed and the confirmation voucher of said payment received by the client), the Cancellation Policy is applied according to the case:
-If the cancellation of the booking is made with less than 7 days before the arrival of the client, the online deposit for the services will NOT be reimbursed to the client.
-If the cancellation of the booking is made 7 to 29 days before the arrival date, the Cleaning and Booking Fees (around 10 % of the online deposit) will be reimbursed to the client. The rest of the online deposit will not be reimbursed.
-If the cancellation of the booking is made with 30 days or more before the arrival of the client, the total amount of the online deposit will be reimbursed to the client.
-If the hosts cancels a confirmed booking, before the arrival date, our team will make a new accommodation offer to the client, if the offer is not accepted, full online deposit will be reimbursed.
We will always try to assist you if you wish to change your booking details, although we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. All amendments are subject to availability. We will always try not to be unreasonable in the implementation of these conditions.
Therefore, if you wish to change your booking after your online deposit you will have to make a new booking and let us know so we can cancel the first one. We then will compare the difference of the online deposit already paid and the new deposit and arrange it from there.
For Host:
If the host needed to cancel a booking he/she must let Casa Particular .com team know 15 to 30 days before the arrival date of the client so we can make new accommodation arrangements for the client. If the host doesn’t notify Casa Particular .com Team within this time frame (unless an emergency situation occured and they are incapable of notifying within this period of days) a sanction will be applied to said host on our website.
