FAQ

Checkin/Checkout Procedures

All our apartments operate on an automated self checkin process, full details are provided after your reservation is confirmed. Our standard checkin time is 3pm and checkout is 11am. We are flexible with these timings if we do not have other incoming or outgoing guests arriving on the same day. Late or early timings can be arranged but only confirmed 2 days prior to the arrival/departure date.

We do offer an assisted checkin service where someone will meet you and give you an explanation of the apartment facilities and amenities. This service incurs an additional charge of 50 Euros which is paid in cash on time of arrival.

Upon booking and payment for your stay, we send you a rental agreement which needs to be completed in full and returned to use by fax or scanned copy via e-mail.

The credit card authorisation form attached to the rental agreement is a form of security deposit for your stay. We do not charge your credit card unless there is damage to the apartment and only after discussing this matter with you personally.
