Payment Terms

ALL Rates are in US dollars.
We prefer a check or money order. (Bounced checks will incur a $30 charge.)

We can accept credit cards (using PayPal as intermediary), for an additional non-refundable fee of approximately 3% in the US and 4.5% for international guests (including Canada). The credit card fee is charged by PayPal, not us. (The exact amount of the extra fee will be quoted to you at the time of booking.)

Payment is subject to addition of Hawaii Taxes of 14.25% which will be itemized, unless the rate is advertised as "includes taxes".

$300 deposit is required within 7 days of reservation or reservation will be cancelled.

Full payment must be received 90 days prior to reserved arrival date or reservation may be cancelled.

Security Deposit

A damage deposit of $300 is required (although may be waived in certain situations). We prefer a separate check for the damage deposit.
The damage deposit will be refunded within 7 days of departure unless required to cover breakage, damage or excess cleaning.

Regarding PayPal and the Damage Deposit:
For those paying by credit card using PayPal as intermediary, the $300 damage deposit will incur an additional credit card fee of $8.96 in the US and $13.81 for international guests. (The extra credit card fee is paid to PayPal.) We may invoice you separately for the damage deposit (within 60 days of your scheduled departure date) so that we can later refund your damage deposit including credit card fees through PayPal. For international guests we are not responsible for any lost money due to changes in the US$ exchange rate between the time of your payment and the time of your damage deposit refund. Also, for some countries (such as Russia), PayPal imposes a waiting period on refunded money (reportedly up to 30 days). You are subject to the PayPal policies for your country.

Release of Liability

Guests are granted access to Rental Property and many of the amenities that exist within the property. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guests agree to use any personal and real property belonging to the Homeowner at their own risk and agree to release Homeowner of all liability associated with using such property. Homeowner cannot be held responsible or liable for injuries that occur while Guest is in possession or use of property. Guests agree to further take on any liability associated with a third-party guest visiting the Rental Property or use of the Homeowner's property. Homeowner does not permit use of any of Homeowner's Property other than by the Guest and hereby disclaims any claims of liability associated with the Rental Property or property within and around the rental unit.
