Rental Policies

(Proprietary since 2005)
What you need to know when booking with us.

RESERVATION AND PAYMENT POLICY
Payment (in Canadian dollars) by cash, cheque, email money transfer, or money order. A Rental Deposit of 50% of the total fee is required immediately upon signing to confirm a reservation. The balance of the fee is due 31 days prior to check-in. A refundable Security Deposit of $500-$1500 is also required prior to check-in, The Security Deposit can be submitted separately with your final payment and will be held (up to 30 days after the end of a rental) until the unit has been checked after departure, all keys have been returned and no noise complaints have been issued. The Security Deposit may be held against (but not limited to) loss, damage, excessive noise, extensive or additional cleaning or late check-out. As legislated by the Province of BC and as of October 1, 2018, all rentals less than 27 consecutive days will be subject to PST (8%) and MRDT (3%) taxes.

CANCELLATION
If cancelled 31 days or more prior to initial arrival date, any rents paid including cleaning fees will be fully refunded less a $25 cancellation fee. If cancelled 30 days or less prior to arrival, 100% of the reservation including any cleaning or other service fees is non-refundable unless an alternative rental is made by another guest for the same dates. Any refund will be proportional to the re-booking and a $75 service fee will be applied. 7 days or less, the reservation is 100% non-refundable and non-transferable. In case of an extended ALL-MOUNTAIN closure due to lack of snow, we will attempt to move guests to an alternate date within the same season at the same rate (excluding Christmas Holidays and the Family Day Long Weekend – these reservations will be firm). Should there not be an available date within the same season, guests will receive a credit toward a future reservation that can be used at any time of year. All re-bookings must be completed within one month of the original reservation. DISCLAIMER - Klahanie Vacation Getaways shall not be held liable for weather-related issues occurring during or affecting a guest reservation.

GUESTS
Please keep in mind that you are renting someone's home. Guests are expected to respect the property AT ALL TIMES. Reservations are for a set number of guests and we must be notified of any increase in the size of your party. We reserve the right to refuse or interrupt service to any guest who no longer meets the Terms of the rental agreement. Renters under the age of 25 must be accompanied by an adult of 25 years or older and who must occupy the property for the duration of the stay. Any reservation made under false pretenses will be subject to forfeiture of advance payment of rent and deposit and the party will not be permitted to check-in, or the party may be required to leave the property.

WHAT IS PROVIDED
All units are fully furnished with full kitchens. Each unit may provide the same basics such as bedding; towels; paper products (toilet paper & paper towel); cleaning cloths & products; garbage bags; vacuum bags; laundry, hand, dishwasher and dishwashing soap; flashlight (& batteries); lightbulbs; & some basic dry goods (coffee, tea, salt, pepper…). If renting a “self-clean” unit, all linens and towels are to be washed and put away (as found) prior to departure. Items such as food, personal toiletries (toothpaste, shampoo, body soap, etc) will not be supplied.

CLEANING
Klahanie offers 3 tiers of cleaning service: Full, Basic and Self. Each tier has an associated fee. Minimum service is the Basic Clean and is available on all rentals 7 days/week. Full Clean Service is available on Sunday's and Holidays only. Self-cleans may permitted upon approval by Klahanie and will not be available for first time guests. Any of the Cleaning Services must be booked and paid for at the time of reservation. Cancellation Policies (as listed above) apply to the cost of cleaning. Basic Clean is "shared cleaning" between the Guests and Housekeeping. Self-cleans are the sole RESPONSIBILITY of the guest and guests are required to thoroughly and completely clean the entire unit prior to departure. Full Clean guests will have minimal responsibilities prior to departure and Housekeeping will fully clean the unit. Washer, dryer and laundry soap are available in most units. Linen Service is provided in some units and not in others. For those units without linen service, guests may be required to wash sheets and towels prior to their departure. Guests will receive instructions at time of arrival including a Departure Checklist to help guide with the check-out process.

CLEANING, DAMAGE & EXCESSIVE NOISE SECURITY DEPOSIT (referred to as Security Deposit)
Depending on size of unit and number of guests, renters are required to pay a MINIMUM of a $500 and up to a $1500 Refundable Security Deposit prior to entry and separate from their rent. A minimum of $200 will be withheld if the unit is NOT left in satisfactory condition as determined by staff, management and/or owners. $200 may be withheld if any noise complaints are issued against a guest and who does not adequately limit their noise between 10pm and 7am. Please be considerate and keep the noise to a respectful level. Please, do not walk heavily in the units! It is very disruptive! Please note that all Self-Clean Guests will automatically have the full cleaning fee for their unit withheld from their Security Deposit and that amount will only be returned if the unit is PROPERLY cleaned (as per housekeeping services) and guests return the unit to the SAME condition in which it was received. All units are inspected prior to arrival so the opportunity to report any unit damage or un-cleanliness is upon arrival; otherwise it is assumed that everything is in good order. ($35) We do expect the occasional, accidentally broken glass, plate, etc. Please be sure to tell us if something breaks, so that we can replace it promptly.

PARKING
For underground parking, guests are limited to one parking spot marked with the unit number. DO NOT park in any other spots.

All instructions for each unit will be provided prior to arrival.
