Terms and Conditions

These Terms & Conditions refers to “the client”, “you” and “your” include the first named person on the booking and all persons on whose behalf a booking is made or any other person added to a booking or to whom a booking is transferred.

By making a booking, the first named person on the booking agrees on behalf of all persons detailed on the booking that:

1. He/she has read these terms and conditions and has the authority to and does agree to be bound by them;
2. He/she consents to our use of information in accordance with our Privacy Policy;
3. He/she is over 18 years of age and where placing an order for services with age restrictions declares that he/she and all members of the party are of the appropriate age to purchase those services.

In our relationship with you we, Villa Olivo & Villa Oliveto, act as the Principle. We sell villa accommodation (“Accommodation Services”) as a Principal and our obligations are those of a Principal.

We may agree to provide you separately with individual holiday experiences and extras and if that is the case then in relation to those elements (“Extra Services”) we act as an Agent on behalf of the suppliers. Our various and differing obligations are set out below, in three separate sections.

• Section A – contains the conditions which will apply to all bookings.
• Section B – contains the conditions which will apply when you make a booking with us for Accommodation Services.
• Section C contains the conditions which apply to Extra Services.

You may decide to just purchase Accommodation Services, or you may decide to purchase Accommodation Services and Extra Services (e.g. Yoga classes, cooking classes etc). Whatever you decide, we will treat each element as a separate booking so that the price charged in total for the booking of more than one element will always equal the prices charged separately for each individual element. In our invoicing we will separate out Accommodation Services where we will be acting as a Principal from any Extra Services where we will be acting as an Agent.

1. Reservation

1.1 When you make a booking, you confirm that you have the authority to accept and do accept these conditions on your behalf and on behalf of all members of your party and further, if you are making a booking for more than one person, that you are responsible for all payments due from each and every member of your party. It is your responsibility to ensure that any information which you give us is accurate and that information which is given to you by us or any of our suppliers is passed on to all members of your party.

1. 2 When you make your booking, you must pay in full, specified at the time of booking. No contract will come into existence until we accept your booking and we receive full payment in cleared funds and issue you with a written confirmation invoice.  We act as principal in the provision of Accommodation Services and it is in our discretion whether to accept any booking from you and the price you pay is determined exclusively by us.

1. 3 Please check that all names, dates and timings are correct on receipt of all documents and advise us of any errors immediately, as changes cannot be made later and it may harm your rights if we are not notified of any inaccuracies in any document immediately.

1. 4 The booking information and identity documentation that you provide to us will be passed on only to the owners of the villas (“Villa Owners”) and relevant suppliers of Extra Services or other persons necessary for the provision of your travel arrangements. The information may therefore be provided to public authorities such as customs or immigration if required by them, or as required by law. This applies to any sensitive information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities, or dietary and religious requirements. Certain information may also be passed on to security or credit checking companies.

2. The Party Leader

The “Party Leader” is the person in whose name the booking is made and to whom all correspondence and invoices are addressed and as such is responsible for the rental. Spouses’ names are not considered interchangeable.

13. Complaints

13.1 Where we are acting as a Principal (in the sale of Accommodation Services), please inform us immediately in the event of a complaint and contact us on the numbers listed on our website or on your confirmation documents. If your complaint is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of your return home by writing to us giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. It is strongly recommended that you communicate any complaint regarding the services in question without delay and complete a report form whilst at the Villa.  If you fail to follow this procedure, we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and address your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under this contract.

13. 2 Where we are acting as an agent i.e. in respect of Extra Services, the contract for your arrangements is between you and the supplier and any queries or concerns should be addressed to them. If you have a problem whilst on holiday, this must be reported to the supplier or their local representative or agent immediately. If you fail to follow this procedure there will be less opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint. The amount of compensation you may be entitled to may be reduced or you may not receive any at all depending upon the circumstances.

14. Force Majeure 

Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by any event which we or the supplier of the service in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. These events can include, but are not limited to war, threat of war, civil strife terrorist activity and its consequences or the threat of such activity, riot, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster and all similar events outside our or the concerned supplier’s control.

17. Correspondence

For all correspondence, it is agreed that both parties accept documents transmitted by electronic means.

18. Our Responsibilities 

(1) Subject to the remainder of this clause 18, we have a duty to select the suppliers of the services making up your booking with us with reasonable skill and care. We have no liability to you for the actual provision of the services, except in cases where it is proved that we have breached that duty and damage to you has been caused. Therefore, providing we have selected the suppliers/subcontractors with reasonable skill and care, we will have no liability to you for anything that happens during the service in question or any acts or omissions of the supplier, its employees or agents.

(2) We will not be responsible or pay you compensation for any injury, illness, death, loss, damage, expense, cost or other claim of any description if it results from:

(a) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected; or

(b) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party; or

(c) unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond ours or our supplier(s) control; or

(d) an event which either ourselves or suppliers could not have foreseen or forestalled.

(3) We limit the amount of compensation we may have to pay you if we are found liable under this clause:

(a) Loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions and money.

The maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is an amount equivalent to the excess on your insurance policy which applies to this type of loss per person in total because you are assumed to have adequate insurance in place to cover any losses of this kind.

(b) Claims not falling under (a) above and which don’t involve injury, illness or death.

The maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is twice the price paid by you in total for your booking with us. This maximum amount will only be payable when you have not received any benefit at all from your booking.

(4) It is a condition of our acceptance of liability under this clause that you notify any claim to ourselves strictly in accordance with the complaints procedure set out in these conditions.

(5) Where any payment is made, the person(s) receiving it (and their parent or guardian if under 18 years) must also assign to us or our insurers any rights they may have to pursue any third party and must provide us and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require.

(6) Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss or expense or other sum(s) of any description:

(a) which we could not have foreseen you incurring, on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it; or

(b) relate to any business.

(7) We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of our agreement or where they are not advertised in our advertising material.

The Party Leader is liable for any damages caused to the property, its contents or grounds by any member of the party or the loss of any articles belonging to the property.

Charges for breakages or repairs caused by the party staying at the villa will be noted during the final inspection. Charges that can be calculated on the spot will be added to the Final Bill. However, the charges that cannot be quantified immediately will be calculated and billed to Party Leader at a later date. These charges include (but are not restricted to) for damaged or lost articles and other damages for which the repair/replacement estimates are not available. These charges can be taken from the damage deposit taken on arrival.

Under extreme circumstances, the amount shown on the Final Bill may be invoiced and paid through Villa Olivo & Villa Oliveto on the understanding that a Euros 75.00 administration fee will be added to the amount due. The amount of the Final Bill in Euros (€) will be invoiced in the same currency of the booking, at the rate given by the Financial Times of London on the Monday following departure.   

In the event of a disagreement regarding the extent of the damage or the cost of the repairs or lost articles, clients must call Villa Olivo & Villa Oliveto immediately and speak directly with a staff member before leaving the property.
