GENERAL RENTAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Article 1 - Definitions

In these general terms and conditions, the following definitions apply:

  • Landlord: the private owner of the holiday home.
  • Tenant: the person who makes the booking and accepts responsibility as the primary contact for the reservation.
  • Guests: the tenant and any accompanying persons who jointly use the property.
  • Holiday home: the detached property made available by the landlord for recreational use.
  • Rental period: the agreed period of stay as recorded at the time of booking.
  • Rental fee: the agreed amount for use of the holiday home during the rental period.
  • Security deposit: a deposit charged separately from the rental fee, which is refunded after the stay provided the property has been left in good condition.

Article 2 - Applicability

These general terms and conditions apply to all rental agreements for the holiday home, regardless of whether the booking is made directly with the landlord or through an external platform (such as Airbnb, Booking.com, or similar services).

When booking through an external platform, the additional terms of that platform may also apply. In case of conflict, the platform’s terms prevail to the extent permitted by law.

Article 3 - Formation of the agreement

The rental agreement is concluded at the moment the tenant confirms the booking and has paid the full amounts due (rental fee and security deposit), or — when booking through an external platform — at the moment the platform confirms the booking.

The tenant must provide accurate information at the time of booking, including name, contact details, and the exact number of guests.

The minimum rental period is 2 nights, except by prior arrangement with the landlord.

Article 4 - Payment

  • The rental fee and security deposit are due at the time of booking and must be paid in full before the rental period begins.
  • The security deposit amount is as stated at the time of booking and will be refunded after the stay, typically within 5 business days of check-out, provided no damage has been identified and the property has been left clean and complete.
  • When booking through an external platform, payment follows the methods and timelines of that platform.
  • Payment is made via the payment method offered at the time of booking. Bank and transaction fees are at the tenant’s expense.

Article 5 - Cancellation by the tenant

The following cancellation conditions apply to direct bookings made with the landlord. For bookings through external platforms, the cancellation policy of the relevant platform applies.

  • Cancellation up to 14 days before the arrival date: full refund of the rental fee and security deposit.
  • Cancellation up to 7 days before the arrival date: 50% refund of the rental fee; security deposit is refunded in full.
  • Cancellation within 7 days before the arrival date: no refund of the rental fee; security deposit is refunded in full.

Cancellations must be communicated in writing (by email) to the landlord. The date of receipt of the cancellation is decisive.

The landlord strongly recommends that tenants take out a cancellation insurance policy.

Article 6 - Cancellation by the landlord

The landlord reserves the right to cancel the rental agreement in the event of force majeure, such as fire, water damage, or government measures preventing use of the property. In such cases, the tenant will receive a full refund of the rental fee and security deposit. Any further liability on the part of the landlord is expressly excluded.

Article 7 - Check-in and check-out

  • Check-in is available from 15:00 on the arrival day. Access to the property is provided via a key safe at the front door. The access code will be provided no later than 24 hours before arrival.
  • Check-out must be completed by 11:00 on the departure day. After this time, an additional night’s charge may be applied.
  • Early check-in or late check-out is only possible with prior written consent from the landlord and may be subject to an additional charge.

Article 8 - Use of the holiday home

  • The holiday home is intended for recreational use only. Commercial use, subletting, or use as a registered address is not permitted.
  • The maximum number of guests staying in the property at any one time is 2 persons. Overnight stays by additional persons are not permitted without prior written consent from the landlord.
  • Pets are not permitted.
  • Smoking is not permitted inside the property. Smoking outdoors is permitted, provided waste is disposed of correctly.
  • Parties, events, or noise nuisance are not permitted. Tenants must be considerate of neighbours and maintain reasonable quiet.
  • The tenant is expected to treat the property, furnishings, equipment, and outdoor areas with due care.

Article 9 - Damage and security deposit

The tenant is liable for all damage to the holiday home, furnishings, or property of the landlord caused during the rental period by the tenant or their guests, regardless of whether such damage results from intent or negligence.

Damage up to the amount of the security deposit will be deducted from that deposit. Damage exceeding the deposit amount is fully recoverable from the tenant.

The tenant must report any damage as soon as possible, and no later than at check-out.

The landlord recommends that tenants take out adequate travel insurance including personal liability cover.

Article 10 - Landlord's liability

The landlord accepts no liability for theft, loss, or damage to the personal belongings of the tenant or guests during their stay.

The landlord accepts no liability for disruptions to utilities (electricity, water, internet) or technical defects beyond their control, nor for weather conditions or other external factors.

In all cases, the landlord’s liability is limited to the rental fee paid for the relevant rental period.

Article 11 - House rules

Upon check-in, the tenant will receive an information folder containing specific house rules for the holiday home. By making a booking, the tenant agrees to comply with these rules. In the event of serious or repeated violation of the house rules, the landlord reserves the right to terminate the stay early without entitlement to a refund of the rental fee.

Article 12 - Complaints

Complaints must be reported to the landlord as soon as possible and in any case during the rental period, so that the landlord has the opportunity to offer a resolution. Complaints reported after the stay has ended cannot be processed.

Article 13 - Privacy

The landlord processes the tenant’s personal data solely for the purpose of executing the rental agreement and in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Data will not be shared with third parties unless required by law.

Article 14 - Applicable law and jurisdiction

These general terms and conditions and the rental agreement are exclusively governed by Dutch law. Disputes shall be submitted exclusively to the competent court in the district where the holiday home is located.

Article 15 - Amendments

The landlord reserves the right to amend these general terms and conditions. The most current version applies to all new bookings.
