Booking Procedures, Terms & Conditions

Your Booking:

Once you have made your booking it will be emailed to you so you can check all the details. A deposit will be due and your booking will contain your payment due dates and payment options.  It is your responsibility to read the literature we provide at all stages of your quote and booking process and check every detail and the inclusions on your booking before making payment. If it's not written on your booking, then it's not included. All guests regardless of age must be listed on your booking.  

Deposits:

The full deposit being 50% of the total booking is payable within two (2) business days. If the deposit is not received within 2 days of your booking, the booking may be cancelled without notice. Payment of this deposit will indicate acceptance of the terms and conditions set out herein and any additional terms and conditions specific to your booking. 

Balance:

The balance of the total reservation is due 60 days before arrival. If the deposit due date falls inside the balance due date, payment in full is required immediately. If full payment is not received prior to arrival date, no person will be entitled to receive any services listed on your booking and any prepaid monies will be forfeited.

Cancellations:

Cancellation of a booking can be accepted in writing or over the phone and will only be accepted by the person who made the booking. For cancellations received more than 60 days prior to the booking start date, all moneys will be refunded less 20% of the booking value, in addition to the charges set by the property booked. For cancellations received 60 days or less prior to arrival, no refunds apply. The cancellation fees apply in respect to part cancellation (for example, some members of a group cancel). Any cancellation policy belonging to any property supplier will take precedence over the aforementioned cancellation policy if the cancellation penalty is greater. Please note a change of dates is considered a cancellation for some properties and may attract cancellation fees. A change of property is also considered a cancellation. Please also read below regarding Additional Terms & Conditions. Credit card fees will not be refunded.


Additional Terms & Conditions:

Additional booking terms & conditions may apply specifically to your booking, including but not limited to special cancellation policies. All deals/special promotions are offered with additional terms & conditions. Once the book by date for a deal/special promotion has expired it may no longer display on our website however the additional terms & conditions still apply to your booking. In the event that the additional terms & conditions are not adhered to, your booking may be cancelled or revert to full price.  Relaxed terms and conditions for unforeseen circumstances may or may not apply to your booking, this includes circumstances outside of anyone's control. Regardless of the situation, if a refund or credit is applicable, a minimum fee of 15% of the value of the booking will apply.

Amendments to Bookings:

Amendments/changes made to confirmed reservations will incur a minimum fee of $55 plus any fees imposed by the accommodation house, supplier or service operator. An amendment fee also applies when credits and refunds are issued and is in addition to any other charge that may apply. Moved bookings are non refundable and non transferable and are also subject to an amendment fee. 

Travel Insurance:

We strongly recommend travel insurance to protect you against loss of personal belongings, public liability, cancellation fees and lost deposits in the event of unforeseen circumstances. Unforeseen circumstances may include but are not limited to: injury, delayed or cancelled flights, illness, global pandemic, extreme weather. The terms and conditions of your booking are not negotiable so please consider this when deciding on your travel insurance policy. National Park and road closures can happen; we do not refund for such occurrences, therefore travel insurance may be another option for a safeguard. It is your responsibility to read and understand your travel insurance policy and what you are and are not covered for. Check the insurance policy for any extras that may also be available when heading to the snow. Travel insurance is at your discretion. We do not offer or give any advice.
