General terms and conditions of rental

Article 4 – Payment of your reservation:
To validate the reservation, the “Taker” must pay a deposit of 25% of the rental price.
The validation of the reservation commits the “Taker” to pay the balance including the rental price, the participation in the cleaning fee and the tourist tax within the given timeframe, under penalty of the reservation being declared null and void. Before settling any payment in relation to the Reservation, the “Landlord” invites the “Tenant” to carefully read the details of the Quotation or the Reservation Request Form, and to inform the “Landlord” immediately if the “Tenant” believes that the said documents are erroneous or incomplete.

Article 8 – Payment of the balance :
The balance of the price of the stay must be paid at least 30 days before the entry into the premises. If the balance of the rental is not paid at the latest 20 days before the entry into the premises, the rental contract automatically becomes null and void, the deposit paid will be considered as lost by the “Tenant” and the rented property will become free to be rented without any warning from the “Landlord” to the “Tenant”.

Article 9 – Tourist tax :
The tourist tax is a local tax that “the Tenant” must pay to “the Landlord” and/or “the rental platform” which then transfers it to the Treasury
Public Treasury. The tourist tax, amounting to 1.65 € per night and per adult (+ 18 years old), is to be paid by “the Tenant” “to the Landlord” on the day of your departure. If part of the tourist tax is collected by “a rental platform” (HomeAway, Airbnb, Expedia, Booking, TripAdvisor, etc.) “the Tenant” must pay the difference to “the Landlord”. If “the Tenant” makes a reservation via the Website of “a rental platform” (HomeAway, Airbnb, Expedia, Booking, TripAdvisor, etc.) and if the number of travellers is incorrect to the disadvantage of “the Tenant”, “the Tenant” undertakes to pay “the Landlord” the balance of the tourist tax corresponding to the number of travellers indicated at the time of the reservation on “the said rental platform”.

Article 10 – Security deposit:
The term “security deposit” is the correct term, but for the sake of uniformity with all websites, we will use the term “deposit” in the legal sense of “security deposit”.
the legal meaning of ‘security deposit’. A security deposit in the amount of 2,000.00 Euros (Two Thousand Euros) for the rental of the property and for cleaning will be required at the time of booking. The security deposits will be returned to the Tenant at the end of the stay and at the latest one week after departure, after deduction of the indemnities
The security deposit will be returned to “the Taker” at the end of the stay and at the latest one week after departure, after deduction of the indemnities retained for any damage or state of dirtiness noted by “the Landlord”.
In the event of rental damage, the security deposit will be returned within a maximum period of 2 months, after deduction of the expenses incurred in repairing the damage suffered, with justification and invoices. The deposit must be made either by bank transfer (indicating the name of the contract holder). Deposits by cheque or cash will not be accepted. “The Lessor reserves the right to retain part or all of the deposit in the event of damage to the accommodation and its contents and/or equipment. Any broken, damaged or missing object will be charged to the “Tenant”, as well as the restoration of the premises if this should prove necessary.
The retention of the deposit does not exclude additional compensation in the event that the costs are greater than the amount of the deposit. “The Lessor” also reserves the right to deduct a sum corresponding to the additional cleaning costs from the fixed price if the accommodation requires additional costs to restore it to its original state.
Please note! “The Tenant” is obliged to provide proof of insurance in the name of “the Tenant”, indicating that “the Tenant” is insured for holiday cover during the dates and at the location of the rental described in the rental agreement. Failure to provide proof of holiday insurance may result in the cancellation of the rental contract and therefore the non-delivery of the keys by the “Lessor” to the “Tenant”.

Article 15 – Interior and exterior maintenance of the premises and final cleaning :
“The Tenant shall carry out the complete cleaning, independently of the final cleaning carried out by the Landlord.
The complete cleaning to be carried out by the Tenant consists of :
For the interior, to remove all important traces on the windows, doors, furniture and floors, to tidy up the kitchen, to wash and put away the dishes, to remove the remaining food, as well as all the waste, to empty all the dustbins (including cardboard and glass), to remove the sheets (put the sheets at the foot of the bed), to put the towels in the showers, to tidy up so as to be able to give back the house clean.
For the exterior, to remove and put away the swimming pool accessories, to clean, put away and remove the rubbish in the grounds, to empty and clean the barbecue and its accessories, to wash and put away the dishes, to remove the remaining food and all rubbish, to empty all the rubbish bins, to sweep up so as to be able to return the grounds and the swimming pool clean.

For the exterior, in the thorough cleaning of the exterior, the swimming pool and the washing of the floors.

The final cleaning is essential for a complete overhaul of the property to welcome the future occupants of the house. A fixed fee of 500€ is to be paid by the Tenant as a contribution to this final cleaning. Although the final cleaning is provided by “the Lessor”, “the Tenant” is obliged to carry out the complete cleaning. In the event that the complete cleaning of the accommodation has not been carried out prior to departure and/or if the “Landlord” deems the complete cleaning to have been poorly carried out, a minimum fee of 100 € including VAT will be charged to the “Tenant”. This amount will be deducted from the security deposit.
