Terms & Conditions

These terms apply to every booking of a short-term let operated by AK Getaways. By making a booking you accept them.

Booking and payment

A booking is only confirmed once we have received payment and you have completed the booking requirements set out below. Until both are done, a booking is provisional and we are not obliged to hold the dates.

We take payment at the time of booking. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm accepted payment methods.]

Check-in requirements

All guests must complete our online check-in form, upload valid photo identification, and sign our short-term rental agreement.

These must be completed at least 48 hours before arrival. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm the 48-hour cutoff.]

Failure to complete them by that time may result in cancellation of the booking under our Cancellation Policy.

Cancellations

Cancellations, refunds and no-shows are governed by our Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these terms.

We offer both a standard flexible rate and a discounted non-refundable rate. The rate that applies to your booking is the one shown when you book.

Check-in and check-out times

[PLACEHOLDER: state your standard check-in and check-out times.]

Where we can, we are happy to discuss early check-in and late check-out. Any such arrangement must be agreed with us in advance and is subject to availability.

House rules

  • No parties or events.
  • No smoking inside the property.
  • Please respect our neighbours and observe quiet hours.
  • The maximum occupancy is strictly as booked. Guests must not exceed it.
  • You are responsible for any damage caused during your stay.

Damage and liability

Guests are responsible for damage to the property or its contents beyond fair wear and tear.

The guest who made the booking is responsible for their whole party, including any visitors they invite during the stay.

Right to refuse or cancel

We may refuse a booking, or cancel one already made, where the booking requirements are not met, where these terms are breached, or where we reasonably believe the property would be used in breach of them.

Liability limitations

Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.

Subject to that, our liability to you is limited to the total amount you paid for the booking.

Personal belongings are left in the property at your own risk. We are not responsible for loss or damage to them. We recommend that you arrange your own travel insurance.

[Recommend legal review of this clause. The wording above is a reasonable starting point for a short-term let, but a solicitor should confirm it is appropriate for your circumstances before you rely on it.]

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and any dispute arising from them is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Company details

[PLACEHOLDER: trading name, and company registration number and registered address if a limited company, or the operator's contact details if a sole trader.]
