The different configurations of absolute maximum guests allowed per flat is indicated below, with any other configuration we must get aproval from the respective flat's owner via www.inyonirocks.co.za before the booking can be made. Even if quoted on other configurations, the owner has to approve first before the booking can be made.

Please note again that what is indicated on your booking confirmation is the maximum adults and children allowed. Any deviation from this might cost more than what you paid for and must be settled before entering the complex.
Children are generally defined as persons younger than eighteen up and until the departure date.
Tariffs / Rates include DSTV with the premium subscription, one undercover and one open parking as well as the usage of two safes, one per bedroom.
(At the time of writing the DSTV Premium subscription is the full subscription, excluding any specialised or non standard add-on channels.)
Inventories must be checked and any discrepancies reported within 24 hours of arrival. If no shortages are reported by the guest of the unit, it will be regarded as correct and guests will be held responsible for any shortages or breakages on vacating the unit.
Check in time is strictly after 14h00 on the day of arrival and the unit must be vacated at 10h00 on the day of departure.
Check in time is after 14h00 on the day of arrival, however you are allowed to arrive from 10h00 onwards but must get permission from us in writing beforehand.
The flat MUST be vacated at the latest 10h00 on the day of departure.
If arriving before 14h00 you accept the fact that departing guests have until 10h00 to vacate the flat, you being there whilst cleaning are in progress and the fact that we cannot know in what state the departing guests leave the flat, all have an effect on the cleaning.
When vacating the flat guests are required to leave the flat clean and to make sure that all doors and windows are closed.
The unit is serviced daily except for Sundays and Public Holidays. This is also dependant on other factors, such as transport, sickness, strikes etc.
Beach towels are not provided and if any bath towels are provided, they may not be used as beach towels.
Please note that no braaing (barbequing) is allowed on the patio or balcony. This is only allowed at the communal braai facilities situated on both sides of the sea facing block of flats.
Hanging of clothes on the balcony walls and windows are not allowed. Washing lines are available in the complex.
The owner can and will not be held responsible or liable for any loss, inconvenience, injury, death etc. to the guest or accompanying parties.
There are stairs, pools, wet floors, sharp objects, balconies, non shatterproof glass windows and many other highly dangerous areas on the premises and inside the flat. Whether made highly visible or being warned about it or not, we can and will not be held responsible or liable for any loss, inconvenience, injury, death etc. to the guest or accompanying parties.
The premises and flats are not at all suitable for people with disabilities.
Absolutely no pets are allowed inside the flat or complex grounds. Though we do not allow pets or any other animals, we unfortunately cannot be held responsible for any person bringing these onto the premises for whatever reason, whether given special permission or not.
Under no circumstances may furniture be moved around.
The right of admission is reserved.
You are not allowed to give the access code, keys, electronic discs or any other items used to gain access to the complex and flat to anyone other than the guest(s) indicated on your confirmation email received from www.inyonirocks.co.za.
Please read and adhere to any house-rules provided.
The loss of keys is a costly event and unfortunately has to be dealt with immediately. You accept any and all responsibility with the keys and other access control items.
The guest has to immediately inform us in which case we will make arrangements for a locksmith to replace all locks for the guest's account, to be paid to the locksmith on
arrival. Other access control items like discs etc. also has to be replaced and costs at least R250.00. The guest is required to stay inside the flat until a locksmith can
attend to the matter. As such it is of utmost importance and only for your protection as well that the guest take care of the keys.
Deposits
Failure to deposit required fees within the stated period or late payment thereof will result in the reservation being cancelled and the required period becoming available on a first come first serve basis.
Note that this applies to confirmed bookings. (No initial deposit as per written procedures received from us means no booking / reservation at all.)
Deposits per cheque can take seven plus banking / business days to clear in our account and as such puts you at risk of loosing your option to book or confirmed booking during this time. This also applies to any other means of payment involving delays. It is thus to your best interest to ensure payments are cleared in our bank account as soon as posible. For us to do allocations, confirm, complete or keep bookings, any monies owned or requested must have been cleared in our account.
The booking system releases the balance on your key and breakage deposit fourteen plus days after your departure date after which we can do an electronic funds transfer if you have supplied us with your banking details. Failure to supply us with the details will result in the deposit being credited to your account on our booking system for a maximum of one year after which it will not be refundable.
Important notes about deposits and securing a booking:
- We provide multiple guests with quotations as requested and in most cases the first deposit cleared with our bank secures the booking. Should you have made
your deposit but for whatever reason be unsuccessful in securing the booking, we will return your deposit. In most cases their will also be no administration costs deducted.
- The closer it gets towards the required accommodation period the more important it is to pay the securing deposit as soon as possible in order to avoid disappointment.
- Note also that paying by cheque will in most cases cause the money to be cleared with our bank in at least 5 work days, you will thus run a greater risk of someone else securing the required period before your cheque clears.
- Though we do understand that guests would like to secure bookings far in advance so as to not run a risk of not having a booking. This unfortunately also increase the likelyhood of an increase in our tariffs within the period leading up to the arrival date. This difference will be added to your booking cost and are payable by guests.
What this in effect means is that after you have indicated your interest in or requirement for booking accommodation with us, the period required will still
be available to other potential guest's requests, even after we have provided you with a quotation. You can thus only be assured of your accommodation booking
being secured once your deposit have been received AND cleared in our bank account AND we have sent you a confirmation for the secured booking.
Race conditions like these are more likely to occur when making a booking for in season periods, however, well deserved holiday accommodation is not something to
loose out on...
Cancellations
Please note that cancellations are handled on a case by case basis and that you remain responsible for paying the full amount. However, we try our best to find replacement bookings and if successfull it is very likely that you will get a refund.
It is thus also important to rather secure bookings once sure about your holiday, and not make the booking just to ensure no-one else does and thereby denying someone else the oppertunity and causing us risk in financial damage should you not follow through.
Notes:
Cancellation will only be initiated once written notice of the cancellation has been received in addition to the details required by us to cancel the booking.
In most cases where we are unable to find a replacement booking we unfortunately will not refund guests due to the loss encountered with the flat not generating income.
Refunds can only be done electronically and to the account where payment was received from, for this we will need your proof of payment.
Any additional costs above the normal encountered might also be subtracted before any reimbursement, in most cases this is limited to overseas transfers that cost in excess of ZAR100 in most cases.
Paying the first deposit is construed to be acceptance of these conditions and binding on all.
We reserve the right to change any tariffs, services, rules or terms and conditions without prior notification to any party.
Please also see Rates for additional information.
Adhering to the terms and conditions and following all policies and procedures can enhance and ensure a trouble free holiday!
Although we have tried to make the terms and conditions as clear as possible, trying to not use legal terms etc. unclear to the man on the street, you should contact us if anything is unclear or raises some questions so that we can provide you with a definite answer or decision.
Ensuring the safety of everyone booked into the flat as our guests rests solely on your shoulders and is thus entirely your responsibility.
