Please do not be intimidated by our booking conditions -
although there are 10 clauses, they are perfectly straightforward
and they put your booking with us on a business-like basis
and ensure that both you and we know what we are agreeing
to and give protections to both parties. If you do not understand
or disagree with any of them - please ask and we will happily
explain.

BOOKING CONDITIONS
These conditions apply to all bookings
made as from 1 January 2007 until further notice.
They are intended to be interpreted and determined
according to the provisions and practice of English
law.
The owners and the hirers agree to be bound by the
following conditions of hire:
- Holiday Use only: The apartment is hired
on the strict understanding that the accommodation
is for holiday use only and that no right to remain
in the accommodation beyond the period booked and
paid for exists for the Hirer or anyone in the Hirer's
party. The Hirer is responsible for ensuring that
his or her party is fully aware of the conditions
of hire.
- Deposits & Payment: When you book,
a deposit of £100 is required. This is nonrefundable
so we recommend you take out travel insurance with
cancellation cover. The full rental due is payable
not less than two months before the commencement
of your holiday. The booking deposit then acts as
a key/security deposit which is held until after
your holiday and, provided the keys have been returned
in working order and undamaged* and there has been
no loss or damage at the apartment** during your
stay, is then refunded in full within 28 days of
the end of your holiday. If accommodation is booked
two months or less before the start of the holiday,
the full rental and booking/key/security deposit
is payable at the time of booking. If the full amount
due has not been paid two months before the start
of the holiday the owners reserve the right to treat
the booking as cancelled and to seek to relet the
accommodation - in these circumstances no refund
of monies paid will be made.
* The keys to the perimeter gates and swimming pools
area are electronic keys which can be damaged, if
care is not taken, physically or electronically
by immersion in water, especially sea water.
** We do not count the accidental breakage or damage
of the odd cup or glass etc.
- Booking Form & Conditions: Provisional
bookings will only be confirmed when the booking
deposit (or payment + deposit) has been received
accompanied by a completed and signed booking form
and acceptance of these Conditions of Booking by
the Hirer.
- Arrival & Departure Times: Apartments
are normally available from 3.30 p.m. on the first
day of the holiday and normal departure time is
by 11.00 a.m. on the final day. Where the departure
of previous visitors and/or the arrival of subsequent
visitors permits, we will allow some flexibility
in this - e.g. to allow clients whose flight does
not depart until the evening to stay in occupation
until a convenient departure time if the subsequent
visitor is not arriving until the following day
- providing this allows time for the cleaning and
servicing of the accommodation.
- Maximum numbers: The Hirer agrees that
the property will not be occupied by persons other
than those listed on the booking form, except by
written agreement. No more than two persons may
stay in a one bedroom apartment or four in a two
bedroom apartment. In the two bedroom apartment,
the bedroom not required and paid for may be locked
off and not accessible to hirers.
- Loss or Damage: The Hirer undertakes on
behalf of his/her party to take good care of the
accommodation and all facilities and the keys for
the duration of the tenancy, to leave the accommodation
clean and tidy as found and to act with all reasonable
consideration for other guests and to reimburse
us for any loss or damage at the apartment or to
its furniture or contents during their stay. The
Hirer is responsible for the care and insurance
of his/her luggage and personal effects etc. We
do not provide safety deposit boxes or other secure
storage for valuable items, money etc. The Hirer
undertakes to follow the security advice set out
in the advice and information folder in the apartment
to minimise the risk of loss of any of the Hirer's
possessions or the furniture, equipment and other
contents of the apartment.* We recommend all clients
to take out travel insurance which includes cover
for cancellation and delay, luggage, medical costs
and public/civil liability.
All apartments are fitted with rejas (security
bars/gates) which are traditional in Spanish
properties and if used as recommended provide a
high level of security as well as enabling good
ventilation in hot weather.
- Community Rules and Use of Facilities: Residencial
Bahia de Vera is a naturist community and it is
expected that Hirers and their parties will live
a naturist lifestyle whilst there according to the
normal standards of naturism. Naturism is permitted
at all times, but there is no requirement to be
naked except when using the swimming pools. Hirers
and the members of their party agree to comply with
the rules and norms of the community including the
rules concerning conduct and behaviour as a naturist
community (The Community's Rules are quite
straightforward and are concerned with owners and
visitors acting reasonably and in neighbourly ways
- e.g. not disturbing neighbours with noise during
siesta time or late at night - a copy of the Community
Rules is in the Information Folder in each apartment).
Subject to complying to the community's rules and
norms, Hirers are entitled to use community facilities
such as the indoor and outdoor swimming pools. The
operation of the community facilities, such as the
swimming pools is outside the control of the owners
of the apartments who cannot guarantee their availability
or operation at any particular period (However,
it is most unusual for these facilities not to be
operational). Users of the swimming pools should
be aware that lifeguards are only employed by the
Community in the high season (late July and August)
and even then are only on duty at the hours posted
outside the pools. Persons using the pools at other
times do so entirely at their own risk.
- Naturist Etiquette: Hirers and their accompanying
persons undertake to follow the normal naturist
hygeine etiquette and to provide and use suitable
towels to avoid soiling chairs, sofas and other
furniture when naked. (If visitors are not sure
what constitutes normal naturist etiquette, we can
provide more information or guidance can be found
on www.veraplaya.info).
- Smoking (New for 2007): Hirers agree not
to smoke inside the apartment or to permit visitors
to do so.
- Pets: Dogs or other pets will only be accepted
by written agreement at the time of booking.
- Our obligations: We undertake to make accommodation
available to the Hirer in a clean and tidy state
and to maintain services and facilities in a proper
workable condition. Where exceptionally a problem
or fault occurs, we shall make every effort to keep
delay or inconvenience to a minimum. If, for any
reason, we are unable to comply with this contract,
by providing the holiday home of the Hirer's choice
or an equivalent or larger property (defined in
terms of cost of rental), we are liable forthwith
to refund to the Hirer the full amount of the monies
paid and our total liability is limited to the refunding
of such monies. If for any reason outside the control
or responsibility of the Hirer - such as fire, storm
or natural disaster - the apartment booked cannot
be inhabited after the holiday has commenced we
will use our best endeavours to find alternative
accommodation as nearby as possible for the Hirers
for the remainder of their holiday.
