Booking with us is a very easy. Here are the usual steps :
- Usually the guest send an enquiry, asking a confirmation that the unit is available, total price, and possible some other questions.
- The guest confirms the booking by either e-mail. Preferrable with preferred payment method an d cell phone number. We the owners will reserve the apartment "in the system" for this guest
- A 250 US$ deposit, minimum 10 %, is due three days after the booking is placed. The remaining amount is due 30 days before check-in.
- That's it. No contract to complete, and no extra "damage deposit" to be paid. (See FAQ / Terms). (Rental contract will be issued if the guest wants one. For us the owners, it's enough that the deposit is settled.)
Payment methods :
- PayPal (Our preferred method). PayPal is a very secure payment method, you do not have to give your credit card number to us the owners. PayPal is widely trusted, and is owned by the famous Internet auction site Ebay. You can read more about PayPal on Wikipedia here.
- Credit card over phone to our on-site partner Millenium Management.
- Check issued to our partner Millenium Management
Checking in :
We cooperate with the only management company that has office at Vista Cay, Milleniumt Management. They are also open 24/7. So it's basically just to arrive at Millenium, early or late, and they will arrange everything for you.
- Checkin is located in the Vista Cay Clubhouse, located at 4874 Cayview Ave. As mentioned, they are open 24/7.
- Millenium will have a prepared envelope with all necesarry information : Code to the apartment (no key), access passes to the pool / clubhouse, a map over the resort, nearby restaurants and stores, driving directions etc.
You will also have to sign a standard rental contract. A copy of this contract can be viewed here. A 500 US$ "damage deposit" will be reserved at your credit card. (No payment) After checkout, hopefully nothing is missing or damaged, this reservation will be released. Luckily, we have yet to use this reservation. This is not a payment, and it will not show up on your monthly statement. This much the same as the Hotels and Car Rentals does it.
