Transfers (to another week in the same unit or to another unit) are commonly treated the same as a cancellation, unless we agree to move you to another location and another date which may have a rate increase if in other peak seasons or different date ranges and agreed increase of rental rate can be determined. The initial rental deposit and rate change will not be refunded, and dates rented. The size of the guest sleeping capacity would try to match but not guaranteed. The property may or may not be in the same area and may or may not have same amenities. The dates may be exactly the same or different from original dates pending availability. We offer a waiting list that you can join as our algorithms determine the optimal scenario. Currently, from May 1st to September 30th, we require a 3 to 6-night stay for bookings of any weekend night made more than 3 months in advance, and a 2 to 3-night stay for weekend bookings made less than 2 months prior to your desired dates. One-night stays are considered on a case-by-case basis, usually accepted during weekdays in the peak season, and almost always approved during the off-season. Please note the house rules: an additional guest rate of $25 per person, per night, with a one-time preparation and cleaning fee of $20 per person. Deduct any amount already billed to determine the accurate rate once the final count of guests staying and those visiting past 9pm, who are considered overnight guests, is confirmed. This can be adjusted due to our open-door policy, ensuring we have the most accurate guest numbers possible. The platform does not provide these figures to us. Typically, we add $20 per person or a set amount upfront for a base preparation fee, but as we do not yet know your final guest count, we can finalize the number of guests upon arrival or shortly before. A damage deposit is required for all properties before arrival unless waived by the owner. Property access is granted once the damage deposit and any remaining balances are settled. The deposit amount depends on the property and group size, averaging between $20-$25 per person, with a minimum of $100 and a maximum of $2500.
