Terms and Conditions for Short-term Rentals

Booking any of our short-term rental units means agreeing to the following terms and conditions.

  1. RESERVATION FEE

    We require a reservation fee in order to reserve the unit and make it exclusively available to the Guest during the dates booked. In general, the reservation fee we require is equivalent to the security deposit. But our marketing staff and booking managers may require a different amount on a case-to-case basis.

    In consideration of your reservation payment, PPE Inc. shall make the subject Property available exclusively to the indicated Guest(s) on the dates specified. Once the reservation payment has been made, any subsequent and conflicting booking requests from other persons will be turned down.

  2. RESERVATION CONFIRMATION

    Upon confirmation that we have successfully received your reservation payment, you will be issued an electronic document in PDF format entitled “BOOKING CONFIRMATION” which contains the pertinent details of your reservation. This electronic document serves as your proof of payment of the reservation fee. You will be required to show this document either in electronic form or in hard copy, by our personnel who will facilitate your checking in when you arrive at the Property you booked.

    The time it takes for our payment verification process depends on the payment method you used. For payments made using credit cards and Paypal, verification is almost real-time. For payments made via direct bank deposit and online transfer, it may take up to three (3) banking days.
