Rental Charges

Rental charges are quoted per property per week for holidays taken in 2012 unless otherwise stated and are printed below each property description. In some cases they are quoted in the local currency. Although a pound sterling equivalent is also quoted, this is based on an example exchange rate. The final sterling cost will be determined when the final invoice is issued 12 weeks before departure. The conversion will be based on the Pound Spot Rate as quoted in the Financial Times on the Saturday preceding the week in which the invoice is issued. This means we do not have to build in an extra cost to cover the currency risks of quoting a fixed sterling price.

INCLUDED IN THE RENTAL CHARGE ARE:

• Maid Service (as specified)

• Bed Linen and Towels (changed once or twice per week as specified)

• Gas and Electricity charges (unless otherwise stated)

• Pool Maintenance and Cleaning where relevant

If there are any additional charges such as for air-conditioning and pool heating, this is stated alongside the Rental charge box. It is often possible to reserve cots, high-chairs, fans, food packs and extra beds for which there may be a supplement which is usually payable locally; please ask at the time of booking or see the relevant Site Guide.

N.B. Week numbers are used to determine Rental Charges and are quoted in the relevant price panels along with a departure date range. Please click onto the week number calculator by each price panel.

SHORT BREAKS

It is sometimes possible, particularly in the UK, to book a 3 or 4 night stay and charges are quoted in the relevant price panels. Unless otherwise stated, 3 nights run, Friday to Sunday and 4 nights, Monday to Thursday. In most of our overseas properties we usually quote a weekly charge but there may be some flexibility on request.

SECURITY OF PAYMENTS

All payments are made to HSBC Trustee (Guernsey) Limited, part of the HSBC Group. HSBC Trustee (Guernsey) Limited holds all funds separately from the various companies in the HPB Group. Therefore, in the unlikely event of any HPB Group company getting into financial difficulties, such funds would not be available to their creditors.
