1: Contract
The hiring contract is between Secret Places and the party leader or third party agent who must sign a booking form accepting the booking conditions on behalf of all persons named on the booking form including any names substituted or amended on the form by written agreement.
A contract exists when the required deposit has been paid and Secret Places have acknowledged the same by issue of a booking confirmation. The renter understands and consents to the use of the credit card details provided on the registration form or booking form without original signature, serving in place of an original signature and that the credit card authorisation cannot be revoked and will not terminate until 60 days after the rental property is vacated.
The contract is subject to United States Law and the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. Courts.
2: Confirmation
On receipt of the required deposit payment and the signed booking form a confirmation will be issued. Accommodation is reserved only for the persons named on the booking form. Any alterations, substitutions or additions to these details must be notified and agreed in advance of the commencement of the rental in writing. A charge may be levied for this service if notification is less than eight weeks before the rental commencement date. Bookings may not be assigned to another party except by express agreement with Secret Places in writing.
Once a confirmation has been issued the hirer is responsible for the total price of the property rental as shown on the confirmation. Signing of the booking form constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions by the client.
3: Balance of Payment
The balance of payment will be required in full before the hire is due to commence. This date will be communicated in writing to the hirer on their confirmation.

Bookings made within 30 Days (USA/International) 60 Days (UK/N.Ireland) of the rental commencement date must be paid in full at the time of booking.
4: Price guarantee

On arrival at the property the managing agent will require a security deposit. This security deposit may be made in the form of a credit card imprint (VISA or MASTERCARD only)
Refusal to provide a security deposit may result in access to the property being denied or delayed.
This deposit will be held as security against loss or damage to the property, excess cleaning costs or other attributable charges. The hirer will not refuse legitimate charges made against the security deposit. Charges may be incurred for
* Property damage, staining and / or breakages

The property is subject to regular insecticide treatment and as far as possible is screened against insect incursion. These treatments may leave some dead insects inside the property and this shall not be taken as a sign of any infestation.
For the benefit of all of our guests the property is designated as NON SMOKING and hirers should note that any contravention of this injunction will render them liable to excess cleaning charges associated with ridding the property of smoke, ash and odours that may have permeated the furnishings.
The rental property is situated in a mixed residential area and guests are therefore requested and expected to behave appropriately by avoiding noise or nuisance to other residents. Under State and Local laws nude or topless sunbathing is not permitted.

16: Compensation
Any claim for compensation, including for "loss of enjoyment" must be reported whilst the clients are still in occupation. No claims will be entertained unless reported directly whilst the clients are still in occupation and good evidence exists that the managing agent have been given reasonable opportunity to rectify any issue giving rise to complaint.
The managing agent will endeavour to help guests with any problems they may encounter, however clients must be aware that the owners are not representatives or agents of any third party, including their tour operator and car hire company, and cannot be held responsible for any aspects of their vacation not directly related to the property rental.
In any claim for compensation the liability of the owner/agent shall not exceed the total amount paid by the hirer for the rental of the property.
