FAQ

Can I check in yet?

We know you’re exhausted from travelling and that’s why we let you check in as soon as the property is ready. Unfortunately we are unable to give you the house or apartment while it is still occupied by the previous guest, but everything is usually ready by 14:00.

If you would like to guarantee an early arrival, we will book the property off the night before and there will be an early arrival fee of 50% of the daily rate. If you wish not to pay the early arrival fee, you can take a chance to see if the house or apartment is available earlier on the day of your arrival. Please note that during season we often have back-to-back bookings.

When do I have to leave?

We wouldn’t dream of forcing you to leave, but if you’ll be traveling on we ask you to check out by 10am to make room for incoming guests.

If you would like to guarantee a late departure, we will book the property off for the following night and there will be a late departure fee of 50% of the daily rate. If you wish not to pay the late departure fee, you can take a chance to see if the villa or apartment is available on the day of your departure.

What does the rate include?

The rate includes taxes but excludes guest laundry, telephone calls, the internet usage over 1 gig and airport transfers. A 4% credit card surcharge is levied on credit card payments at Ebb Tide and Dunkeld Village.
