5. Cancelation or Modifications

5.1 Requested by the customer

In case the Guest wants to change or cancel the reservation, it always has to be done in writing (via e-mail. The changes may include: the number of people, the names of the guests, another date of the holiday beginning or ending (needs to be reported at least 90 days before arrival). The first reservation change is done without any additional charge, if possible. Each subsequent change will be charged in the amount of 15 euro/change. In case that the reservation change is not possible, and the Guest gives up on the already confirmed reservation, the terms listed below are applied. The date when the written cancellation notification is received by the Agency represents the basis for the calculation of all the cancellation charges. In case the written cancellation was not received within the working hours of the Agency, the cancellation date is considered to be the next working day:

• If the Guest cancels a reservation before paying the rest to the total reservation amount, he/she is not obliged to that remaining amount to the total price.
• If the Guest cancels the reservation after paying the rest to the total price, the money of all the deposit payments will not be refunded, but used to cover the costs of the late cancellation.

Any of the paid deposits, as well as the one which confirms the agreed reservation, are not refundable. The rest to the full reservation price should be paid upon the offer which the Guest received by the Agency.

In case the Guest has to cancel the reservation within the 7 days before the agreed arrival, he/she is allowed to find a new Guest for the same reservation period, if possible (this always depends also on the service provider). In this situation, the Agency will charge only the costs occurred because of the reservation changes, i.e. the change of the actual Guest. The new Guest accepts all the obligations written within these Terms and Conditions. If the Guest does not check in until midnight on the starting date of the holiday, and does not inform the Agency or the service provider about it, the reservation will be cancelled and the cancellation costs will be calculated as described above. If the actual costs exceed the above listed ones, the Agency holds the right to charge the actual costs. In case the Guest is unable to check in on the previously agreed day, and has informed the Agency and/or service provider about it, the accommodation unit is still kept for the Guest, based on the agreement. The Agency does not compensate for the cost of the passports or visas to the Guest, related to the cancellation of the Guests's reservation.

5.2 Requested by the Providers and/or Agency

In the unlikely event that alterations and cancellations have to be instigated by us, we will inform you as soon as possible and if requested we will try to arrange alternative accommodation of a similar type, standard and location. If no alternative accommodation is available or acceptable, we will refund in full all monies paid and shall be under no other liability.

6. Cancelation Insurance

Agency does not provide any insurance cover. Without prejudice to the generality of the above, Agency does not provide any insurance cover in the case of (i) illness, accident or decease, (ii) any other loss or damage suffered by a customer during any holiday or (iii) any cancellation of the holiday. Providers may offer such insurance. Travel insurance remains the sole responsibility of all customers. We strongly advise that all customers take out suitable holiday insurance for the duration of their stay, including cancellation insurance. In respect of each booking which is made Agency, the customer undertakes on behalf of itself and all members of his/her party: (i) to arrange adequate holiday insurance which cover suitable to the activities they will be engaging in, (ii) not to hold Agency or any Provider responsible for any cost incurred by him/her or a member of his/her party due to his/her failure to take out adequate insurance, and (iii) to indemnify Agency and each of the Providers against any loss suffered or cost incurred by him/her or any member of his/her party due to his/her failure to take out adequate insurance cover.

7. Complaints

The Guest is required, upon the arrival at the accommodation unit, to check everything together with the service provider. This is important in order to communicate the inadequate service and inform the Agency about all the eventual deficiencies in writing. In that case, all the problems will be solved as soon as possible, latest within the period of the 2 working days. After the Guests arrived and entered in an accommodation unit the agency service is considered fulfilled. If the Guest has a complaint on the contracted services, he/she is obliged to personally and immediately inform the service provider, the service provider's representative or the representative of the Agency, as well as inform the Agency about it in writing. All the potential problems in the unit will be solved as soon as possible, latest within the period of the 2 working days. For all resolved problems, the Guest has no right to complain about, while the Agency or the service provider cannot be subjected to any claim. In case the problem is not resolved even after the intervention, at least 6 days after the last day of reservation the Guest must send a written complaint with supporting documents and photographs that prove the reasons for the objection via e-mail at [email protected] or via standard mail to: Finest Holidays d.o.o., Lovretska 5, 21 000 Split, Croatia. The Agency will take into consideration only properly completed complaints, received within max. 6 days after the end of reservation. During the problem solving period, which can last 36 days at most after sending the complaint, the Guest cannot involve any other party, the UHPA arbitration or other institutions, as well as providing any information to the media. Also, during this period, the Guest agrees not to sue the Agency or the service provider. The maximum compensation amount can reach the total price of the inadequate service, and cannot include already provided services or the total amount of the reservation. This excludes the right of the Guest for ideal damage compensation. The Agency cannot be held responsible for the eventual weather conditions, sea temperature at the destinations and all other similar situations or events that can cause the Guest's dissatisfaction, and are not directly related to the quality of the accommodation units (eg. bad weather, bad maintained beaches, big crowds, stealing or property damaging, etc.). If the Guest made a "last minute booking" (making a reservation at the last moment), then he/she accepts all risks of that kind of holiday. These reservations include the uncertainty of the facts, on which the Agency can not affect, while the Guest made this reservation primarily because of the lower price and therefore has no right to complain about the organized reservation. By confirming the reservation and paying the deposit or the total amount, the Guest accepts all the above listed Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions exclude all previous travel terms and conditions.
