Clear & Fair Policies

Know your rights when plans change

Last Updated: July 2026

Our Promise to You

We understand that plans change. Whether it's a work emergency, a family situation, or simply a change of heart—we've got you covered. Our cancellation and refund policies are designed to be fair, transparent, and straightforward.

In plain English: The earlier you cancel, the more you get back. Cancel 30+ days before check-in = full refund. Cancel within 30 days = no refund. It's that simple.

Cancellation Policy

Here's how our cancellation policy works:

30+ Days Before Check-In Full refund (minus 5% processing fee)
Less Than 30 Days Before Check-In No refund
Partial Payments No refund whatsoever
Refund Processing Within 7 working days

Important Notes:

  • Full refund is subject to a 5% cancellation fee + applicable GST.
  • If the full amount is not paid at check-in, the booking will be cancelled and no partial payment will be refunded.
  • Refunds into your bank account usually take 7 working days to reflect.

Reschedule Policy

Can't make it but still want to visit? Rescheduling is available under these conditions:

15%
Reschedule charge if done 7+ days before check-in
50%
Reschedule charge if done 2-7 days before check-in
Reschedule not permitted if less than 2 days before check-in

Reschedule Terms:

  • Bookings can only be rescheduled at the same property.
  • If the tariff for the new dates is higher than the original, the difference is payable to confirm the new dates.
  • Rescheduling is allowed only up to 7 days prior to check-in.
  • Rescheduling charges apply every time a booking is rescheduled.
  • Taxes are applicable on all rescheduling charges.

Relocation Policy

Relocation to another property is not permitted once a booking is confirmed.

If you wish to change properties, the standard cancellation and rebooking process applies.

Early Check-in & Late Check-out

Our standard check-in is 1 PM and check-out is 11 AM. Need flexibility?

Early Check-in (by 9 AM) 10% of nightly tariff
Late Check-out (up to 3 PM) 25% of nightly tariff
Late Check-out (up to 6 PM) 50% of nightly tariff
Beyond 6 PM Full night charges apply

Note: Early check-in and late check-out are subject to availability at the Owner's discretion. Please check with our team before your arrival.

Refund Terms & Conditions

  • All refunds are processed within 7 working days of receiving a valid cancellation request.
  • A 5% cancellation fee + applicable GST is levied on all refunds to cover payment gateway charges and minimal processing charges.
  • Refunds are initiated only after the cancellation request is approved.
  • Bank processing times may vary — please check with your bank for exact timelines.

  • Pool Etiquette: No drinks or food in the pool. Pool timings are 8 AM to 9 PM. The pool is unguarded—children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
  • Noise Policy: Outdoor music allowed until 10 PM. After 10 PM, music should be kept indoors at low volume.
  • Damage Policy: You're responsible for any damage caused by you or your guests during your stay.
