Coronavirus - COVID-19 Cancellation Policy 

Last updated 02/07/2021 @ 09.36hrs GMT

From 2 July 2021, the Spanish government requires all arrivals to Spain from the UK (excluding children under the age of 12 years old) to present on entry one of the following:

• Documentation issued within 48 hours prior to arrival in Spain, certifying that you have undertaken a COVID-19 test, e.g. PCR, TMA, LAMP or NEAR, and tested negative. Antigen tests are not currently accepted.
• Proof of being fully vaccinated at least 14 days prior to arrival in Spain (date(s) of vaccination must be specified), with a vaccine authorised by the European Medicines Agency or by the World Health Organisation

As you are preparing a trip to Spain, you must know that due to the COVID-19 health crisis, it is mandatory to fill out a Health Control Form which can be accessed from the page spth.gob.es or by downloading the app on your mobile from the same page.

The Spanish Government has introduced new restrictions and entry requirements for passengers traveling into Spain. All passengers must complete the FCS health control form / locator form before travel. Additionally, if you are traveling from a designated 'risk area', this must include evidence of a negative COVID-19 PCR test obtained within 72 hours of the flight arrival time.

It's your responsibility to check local government restrictions and requirements before travel. Failure to do so could result in being refused travel or denied entry to your destination.

If you're worried about booking your holiday amid all the news reports surrounding the Corona virus, you're not alone. We are with you and we would like to send you a message of calmness, so you can book your holiday with total confidence with our new flexible Booking & Cancellation Conditions

Booking a Property is very different from booking a regular hotel room or a package holiday, especially with regards to payments and cancellations,

In order to address the understandable concern and uncertainty caused by the Corona virus, and to provide some re-assurance to our guests who have already booked, or are considering booking, we have adjusted our standard Terms & Conditions .

Existing Bookings for all guests whose travel is prevented or seriously disrupted by the Corona virus and have a check-in date on or before May 24, 2021

If you are not covered by travel insurance, we will endeavour to convert your booking to a Credit Note which will allow you to re-book the same Villa or Apartment, within 12 months of your original booking.

Rescheduling your dates after your final payment

In these times of uncertainty it’s reassuring to know there’s some flexibility if the worse happens.

Should your booking be cancelled by us or the accommodation owner, or if you need to cancel your booking because the government public health measures means that it is unlawful to travel then you will be entitled to transfer all monies paid to a later date. If the alternative date is more expensive then the difference in cost will be payable and if it is cheaper, the accommodation credit will remain on account subject to the booking/arrival dates stated below.

You will need to cancel with us as soon as possible and we will require proof of circumstances e.g. in the case of a positive COVID-19 test, we will require a copy of the test result before we can action the transfer of your booking

1. We can re-book your entire stay within the same property to a future available date, outside of the declared restriction period, within 12 months of the end of your original booking (subject to any additional cost being paid by you).
2. If you are unsure of the future dates you require, we can provide you with a voucher to the value of the monies paid to date for your holiday, to be used against a holiday in the same property outside of the declared restriction period and within 12 months of the end of your original booking (subject to the property owner’s agreement).
3. Be aware that if you reschedule to dates that are more expensive than your original holiday dates, you have to pay the price difference.
4. If you choose to change your dates, the balance of the rental charge will have had to be paid on or before the date of the original booking confirmation
5. You can, of course, also choose to simply cancel your holiday. In this case, we can provide you with a proof of cancellation which you can use to put in a reimbursement request with your travel insurer.
6. Please note, that quarantine after stay and the requirement of a Corona test do not justify rescheduling your dates
7.  *This only applies if there is a travel ban between your country and Spain if you are restricted from crossing the borders (you can't leave your country)

Cancellation By You

Unless the cancellation is caused by Force-Majeure Covid-19 related, it is agreed between us that should you wish to cancel all or any part of your booking, or that the booking is cancelled by us due to non-payment, then we shall be entitled to the following percentage of the holiday cost:

If no official governmental notices such as "do not travel" is in place at the time of your departure but you wish to cancel your holiday with us due to concerns about Coronavirus, unfortunately we will not be able to reschedule your booking and our normal cancellation policy will apply. Again, in this situation, we would recommend you first contact your travel insurance provider.

A. 8 weeks or more before your arrival date = 100 % (non-refundable reservation deposits)

B. If a cancellation occurs within the 8 weeks prior to arrival, any funds paid (deposit or balance etc ) are non-refundable

C. All cancellations must be sent to us by email by the digital signatory of the booking form. Security damage deposit will be fully refunded.

If you cancel the flights, it is unlikely you will recoup the money from the airline as they generally only issue refunds to trips that they have canceled themselves.

Luckily you have travel insurance but it can also be the case your insurer might not pay out, as not choosing to head abroad when your flights are still available is known as disinclination to travel which in nearly every case is not covered.

Notes

• Please note that we will have no liability for any refunds, compensation, costs, expenses or other losses of any kind incurred by you (including, where applicable, the cost of medical treatment), in the following circumstances:
• Cancellations made because of the Corona virus crisis and not for any other reasons during the quarantine period, If the EU borders are closed, your flight is cancelled by the flight company or the area is inaccessible for local reasons, we will endeavour to provide suitable alternative arrangements or if not possible, In case of Cancellation, you will be able to change the dates. The new booking must be the same villa or apartment, of equivalent or greater value as the original and be made to the start date of the first stay (applicable weekly rates for new dates apply )
• If not possible, we will give you a credit for the amount of the deposits or rental cost paid for a future Booking in 2021/22 in the same Villa or Apartment. Valid for 1 Year from your Original rental start date
• Supporting documents will need to be provided. for example copy of email from your airline confirming cancellation of your flight due to Covid-19
• Payment adjustments may be necessary where stays are re-booked into a different seasonal period than the original booking.
• Although modified as above, the standard  Terms & Conditions set out continue to apply.
