1. BOOKING AND CANCELLATIONS
(a) DIRECT BOOKINGS
(i) To book a property directly with Coffs Coast Accommodation, we require that you pay an initial deposit of 50% of the total booking tariff. If you have not already organised payment with us, your balance payment will be processed automatically 30 days before your arrival. However, if we cannot process the outstanding amount or you fail to make a payment due to us in full and on time, we will treat your booking as cancelled by you.
(ii) If your booking is for a period longer than +31 days, we will split your booking into two or more instalment payments. The initial payment of 50% of the first instalment is due as a deposit, and the balance of the first instalment is due 30 days before your arrival. You authorise us to automatically process each subsequent payment as and when it is due.
(iii) If you make a booking within 30 days from your specified arrival date, you must pay the total amount at the time of booking.
(iv) Once we have received the initial deposit or full payment, you will receive an email confirming your reservation. The contract between us will commence on receipt of your payment. Receipt of a confirmation email is subject to the following booking conditions.
(v) Payment of the deposit constitutes your acknowledgement and acceptance of the Terms and Conditions. Therefore, you should carefully check the details of your booking before making any payment, as well as the confirmation email after payment, and inform us immediately of any errors or omissions.

Note: If you are arranging a booking on behalf of additional guests, you must ensure that every other guest meets all requirements and standards as set by Coffs Coast Accommodation. Before booking the property, all guests should know and agree to these Terms and Conditions, including all rules and restrictions outlined below.

(b) CANCELLATION AND AMENDMENTS – IF CAUSED BY YOU
(i) If you need to cancel or amend your booking, please notify us as soon as possible. A cancellation or amendment will not take effect until we receive your confirmation in writing or via email.
(ii) 30 days or less prior to arrival: No refund will be issued.
(iii) More than 30 days before arrival: 100% refund.

(c) CANCELLATIONS AND AMENDMENTS – IF CAUSED BY US
(i) Coffs Coast Accommodation will make every effort to ensure the property is available as booked. However, Coffs Coast Accommodation reserve the right to make alterations to bookings due to unforeseen circumstances (e.g. fire, flood, structural damage). We would not expect to have to make any changes to your booking, but sometimes problems occur, and we may have to make alterations or, very occasionally, cancel reservations.
(ii) If this does happen, we will contact you as soon as is reasonably practical and inform you of the cancellation or the change to your booking. If we cancel your booking, we will refund you any fees you have already paid to us. However, we will not be liable to compensate you for any fees you may have paid to any third party in connection with your holiday (including, without limitation, costs for travel, entertainment, activities or insurance).

(d) BOOKINGS THROUGH ONLINE TRAVEL AGENCIES (OTAs)
Where payments are made by the guest directly to the OTA, payment and cancellation policies will be as stated within the OTA.

2. FEES AND CHARGES
(a) You agree to pay the accommodation fees in the booking summary without deduction. You also agree to discharge the cost of any damage to the property or contents and to pay any expenses relating to overstaying or breach of house rules.
(b) By accepting these terms, you agree to pay the accommodation fees in total, and you authorise Coffs Coast Accommodation to collect the total amount referred to in the booking summary immediately unless your booking falls under the conditions set out in OTA payments. No-shows will be responsible for the entire accommodation fees for the booking (and you authorise Coffs Coast Accommodation to deduct such sums from the credit or debit card details you supplied when booking).
(c) All transactions are processed in Australian Dollars.
(d) Coffs Coast Accommodation will collect all fees (aside from OTA bookings).
(e) A 3.3% booking fee applies to all bookings.

All properties are available for check-in no earlier than 3 pm on the day of arrival. You must vacate no later than 10 am on the date of check out unless prior arrangements have been made and agreed to in writing before your stay commences.

4. CHECK-OUT
Your check-out time is as stated in the booking summary. Unless you agree to a late check-out with Coffs Coast Accommodation or a further period of occupation, you will be liable for an additional full day's accommodation fee per day (or part thereof) for any unauthorised overstaying. On back-to-back departure days (other guests checking in), should our cleaners arrive at the property to find you have not vacated, we will take action to remove your effects. We will charge you for their time. Should our cleaners arrive after your check-out time and you refuse to leave, we will dispatch security staff to evict you, and you will be liable for the costs.

5. SAFETY AND CONDUCT
(a) You are primarily responsible for your safety during your stay with Coffs Coast Accommodation. Therefore, you must read any fire or health & safety guidance included in the Guest Emergency Information Guide.
(b) If you become aware of anything during your stay that you believe a health & safety risk, you must inform Coffs Coast Accommodation immediately.
(c) You must comply with the House Rules, Community or Strata regulations and any reasonable directions of Coffs Coast Accommodation. We will highlight rules particular to a property in the compendium.

A charge of $500 per night will apply for excess persons at the property at any time not agreed with the owners in advance and may result in immediate termination of the lease.
Each of our properties has a maximum number of guests allowed.

6. CLEANING
The total booking fee includes a standard clean. Additional cleaning charges will apply if we find the property in an unreasonable condition and the actual cleaning costs exceed the standard advertised cleaning fee. For example:
• Dirty dishes and un-emptied dishwasher
• Rubbish not removed from the property and disposed of in the outside bins
• Soiled or stained bed covers, rugs, upholstery etcetera
• Lost or damaged remote controls
• Misplaced keys
• Sand left in the spa or pool
• Excessive handprints and or marks on walls/glass

Please do not wash the bathroom towels or bed linens; we use a commercial laundry service.

7. EVENTS
We prohibit weddings, functions, and parties in all properties listed on Coffs Coast Accommodation unless you have received written consent before the event approving the nature of the event and the number of allowable guests. Any breach of this term will result in immediate termination and eviction without refund. In addition, we will apply additional charges for security, cleaning, rubbish removal, willful damage and repairs against your Security Bond.

8. NOISE AND BEHAVIOUR
In addition to complying with the House Rules and all reasonable directions, you also agree that you will:

(i) not do or permit to be done in or to the property anything which is or which may be or become a nuisance or cause damage, annoyance, inconvenience or disturbance to Coffs Coast Accommodation, any of its guests, or neighbouring properties, including (but not limited to) playing loud music or musical instruments, shouting, entertaining in the property;
(ii) not conduct any illegal or immoral activity on the property;
(iv) not conduct any business or commercial activity whatsoever from the property;
(v) not make any alteration or addition whatsoever to the property or its contents;
(vi) not use the property for any commercial or media ventures without prior approval.
(vii) not have any gathering of more people on the property without prior written consent from Coffs Coast Accommodation;
(viii) Do not use the property for any purpose other than for private accommodation.
Coffs Coast Accommodation reserves the right to access the property during your stay, with or without your consent, for any matter deemed operational necessity.

9. DAMAGE AND REPAIRS
(a) You must notify Coffs Coast Accommodation of any damage to the property, contents, fixtures or fittings which occur during your stay, even if you regard the damage as fair wear and tear or if you do not believe the damage is your fault.
(b) If you do not notify Coffs Coast Accommodation of any such damage, you will be fully liable for such damage on a full replacement basis.
(c) We will take any deductions for property damage from the credit or debit card details you have supplied for payment of the security bond. To avoid doubt, you will be liable for the total amount of any damage and not just the security bond amount.
(d) If any key or remote to the property is not returned upon check-out, you will be charged for changing all related barrels and a complete set of new keys.

10. STATE OF PROPERTY
(a) We will endeavour to ensure that all appliances in the property are working correctly, there is no damage to the property, and the property is spotlessly clean.
(b) If you notify us of a faulty appliance, the property is not clean, or if something is wrong with the property, we will take all reasonable steps to have the fault corrected as soon as possible. Likewise, when you notify us after hours, we will endeavour to have the fault rectified as quickly as possible on the recommencement of business hours.
(c) The existence of a faulty appliance or another issue with the property will not entitle you to any discount on the booking fee.
(d) If you are booking an apartment, please note that we are not responsible for the building maintenance. In the event of a fault in the common area, e.g., the lift not working or there is no hot water, we will notify the body corporate of the defect immediately. However, the existence of the fault will not entitle you to any discount on the booking fee. We assure you that all our apartments are in quality buildings and that common area faults are always attended to by the body corporate promptly.
(e) Scheduled and Unscheduled Maintenance, Trades and Repairs: We arrange regular maintenance and repairs on all properties. When possible, we try to schedule these services outside of bookings; however, during busy periods or circumstances outside our control, this is not practicable. Therefore, you agree to allow repair and maintenance services during your stay. Examples may include but are not limited to pool cleaning and maintenance, garden maintenance, electrical repairs, appliance repairs and replacement, and other services. If you refuse a service that has been booked as scheduled or unscheduled during your stay, you agree that you are liable to pay the service call-out fee.

11. SECURITY BOND
Before your arrival, Coffs Coast Accommodation will pre-authorise a security deposit payment using the credit card provided.

To bring your pet to a "Pet-Friendly Property", there is an additional Pet-bond of $500.

The Security Bond will be credited to your card within seven days following your departure, less any deductions per the conditions listed below. Once the property has been inspected and considered, at the absolute discretion of Coffs Coast Accommodation, to be in the same condition as when you arrived.

Compensation for damage, loss or theft, any excess cleaning that may be necessary after your stay or payment of penalties for overstaying or breach of house rules or for any other breaches of these Terms & Conditions will be applied against the Bond. Coffs Coast Accommodation will be entitled to make further deductions from this credit or debit card over and above the pre-authorisation should such charges be required. Furthermore, should the cost of repairs or replacement caused by damage exceeds the amount of the Bond or the credit available, Coffs Coast Accommodation has the right to pursue you for the entire amount plus expenses.

In the unlikely event a property sustains an insurance event that precludes the availability of a property, the owners of the booked property reserve the right to alter or amend any scheduled reservation before the check-in date. We will offer you the opportunity to rebook another property if one is available, rebook alternate dates or provide you with a full refund. Please refer to the annexure in this document for the Security Bond Agreement.

12. PETS
Pets are permitted only by prior arrangement with the management of Coffs Coast Accommodation via payment of a Pet Fee on our Guest Interface GetDuve. A Pet Fee is applicable per pet, per booking. There is also the additional Pet Bond of $500. Upon booking confirmation, you will receive a link to GetDuve, where you can select to bring your pet.

13. LIABILITY AND CLAIMS
