- Children, most of our properties have child safety issues and concerns for guests with younger children, such as balconies, split level terraces with steep drops and unfenced pools. Guests staying with children do so at their own risk and are urged to take all due care and attention during their stay.
- Swimming pools, where properties feature a swimming pool, these are to be used entirely at your own risk and unless otherwise advised these are not supervised in any way or equipped with child safety nets or fences. Pools are also not heated (unless advised) so are only suitable for use in summer. Pools are generally serviced at least once a weekly.
- Telephone and Internet service, most of our properties have both telephone and internet access for guests’ use, but please ask before booking if this is important to you. All phone calls you make will be charged and in most properties can be paid for either on departure or will be notified to you within 10 days. Internet service is sometimes charged separately (guests will be notified where this is the case) and data is generally capped. May differ from property to property, please enquire if this is important to you.

Where the managing agent becomes aware of any unauthorised use of the property it shall be entitled to require such usage to cease immediately or terminate the rental and require guest to leave. In these circumstances the managing agent may also be entitled to charge an additional fee for the unauthorised event such fee to be calculated reasonably at its discretion depending on the nature of the event and to be recovered if necessary from the security deposit.

- Behaviour, the person who signs the property registration form is responsible for the behaviour of everyone using the rental property. If anyone in your party or any guest or invitee behaves in an unacceptable manner by civilised standards the entire party may be required to vacate the property without notice. Kindly note it is not considered acceptable behaviour for these purposes to make excessive noise. Playing music loudly especially after 11pm at night will not be tolerated.

We must stress the importance of bringing complaints or problems to the attention of the managing agent or the Property Managers as soon as possible during your stay as we cannot be expected to help if you only notify us following your return. In the event that you vacate the property without authorisation during the rental period, you will lose any rights you might otherwise have had to compensation.
- Emergency Call-outs, you will be given an emergency after hours mobile phone number staffed by the Property Managers to assist with any urgent maintenance work or other emergency issues while our offices are closed.

In the event that you have a client generated emergency requiring after hours assistance, for example losing the keys, locking yourselves out of the property, or if you require assistance with your personal computer settings you may be required to pay an emergency call-out charge.
- Breach of Terms and Conditions, if any of these Terms and Conditions are materially breached by any of the guests or invitees, the managing agent reserves the right to re-enter the property and terminate the rental without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of the managing agent, the Property Managers and/or the property owner.
- Liability, the managing agent, the Property Managers and our property owners will not accept liability for any act, neglect or default for any accident, damage, loss, injury, expense or inconvenience, whether to person or property, which any of the guests or their invitees may suffer or incur arising out of, or in any way connected with, the property rental.
