WHEN AND HOW LONG YOU MAY OCCUPY: Your occupancy will commence
on the check-in date and terminate on the check-out date. Check-in time is
3:00 pm and check-out time is 11:00 am. If these times do not fit your
schedule, please let us know in advance, so that other arrangements can be made,
if possible. Bookings are often "back-to-back" and these times may be critical
in order to allow sufficient cleaning of the unit.
PAYMENTS:
If you are paying by check, please make check payable to David Shaw and send
to:
13-3444 Luana St. Pahoa HI
96778-8416
If you are paying with your Visa or MasterCard, you must supply the card
number, the expiration date, the name of the card holder, and the security code
on the back.
You may supply this information by telephone, USPS mail, or by
email. Credit card
information sent by email should be split between two different emails for your
protection: one with the card number and the other with the expiration and
security codes.
BOOKING DEPOSIT: A payment of
the minimum three-day stay is required to secure your reservation.
SECURITY DEPOSIT: You must
include a $200 security deposit check with your advance rental payment unless
you are paying with a credit card.
If so, you are authorizing the credit card to be used as a guaranty; it will not
be charged unless there are damages such as those listed below.
Similarly, your check will be held, not cashed, and returned to you
if no issues arise.
ADVANCE PAYMENT OF RENTAL FEE: The rental fee for the entire term of your
stay must be paid in full 30 days prior to your arrival.
If you paid your booking deposit with a credit card, your card will
be charged with remaining amount of the rent (less the booking deposit) 30 days
prior to your arrival. If you are paying by check or money order the remaining
rent and the separate security deposit check must be received 30 days
before arrival.
Otherwise, if the occupancy fee is not received on or before the due
date, your reservation is subject to cancellation and the cancellation fees
would apply.
CANCELLATION FEES:
Reservation date to 31 days from rental start date – 50% of the booking deposit.
30-14 days – 100% of the booking deposit.
Less than 14 days – forfeit of the entire rental amount.
This is due to the fact that we are unable to re-book on such short
notice. If we can re-rent at the same rate, any difference will be credited back
to you. The security deposit will be returned if your reservation is canceled at
any time.
FORFEITURE OF THE SECURITY DEPOSIT:
The guest signee understands and agrees that violations of the house rules
could result in a forfeiture of the security deposit as indicated in this
agreement. If you pay the deposit with a
check, the check will be held for no more than 45 days after your departure.
This will allow us to determine if there are excessive utility or
cleaning charges, or any expenses for repairs, missing items, or any other
damages as may arise. If you use a credit card deposit as your guaranty
for repairs, any charges will be made no later than 45 days after departure.
You will be provided will a full accounting of any amounts of the
security deposit forfeited.
