RESERVATION PAYMENT & CANCELLATION POLICY:
Life In Paradise Vacation Rentals accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. To secure your reservation we require 25% of the total reservation to be paid at the time of booking (This is not a refundable deposit, but an initial payment towards the reservation). The remaining balance will be due 30 days before arrival. Reservations made 30 days or less before arrival will require payment in full for final confirmation. Upon booking, you will receive an email with the rental agreement that MUST be completed and signed for you to check in and secure your reservation.
Bookings through the Alternate website's payment and cancellation policies may differ from those above. Please check with the website where you booked for their policy.
- IMPORTANT: You must inform us at least 31 days before arrival if you plan to use an alternate payment source. Otherwise, your final payment will be charged to the card used to book your stay. Life In Paradise has a STRICT 25 years or older to rent policy and reserves the right to cancel any booking where this policy is found to be violated. If you attempt to check in and are found to be under the age of 25, access to the property will not be granted and no refunds will be considered.
