Damage Deposit A damage/cleaning deposit of $350 CDN is required when the final balance of the rental is paid at 6 weeks prior to the beginning of the rental period. This deposit will be returned in full at the time of your departure if the cottage is left tidy, clean and undamaged - in the same condition in which you received it. Renters are always met at the cottage by the homeowner or a representative. Acceptance of the key establishes agreement that the cottage and its contents have been received clean, tidy and in good to excellent condition. All garbage must be taken off the island as there is no landfill however, for a small fee, a local person will pick up your garbage - guests call him and make arrangements or take their own garbage off island. Usually, garbage is very small in quantity as there is a recycle centre on the island and renters are encouraged to use it - they take all cans, bottles, metal, cardboard, office paper and newspaper. At Kingfisher Cove, we compost and recycle and are generally very conservation oriented and expect that our guests will follow through in a similar fashion. Meat and chicken scraps as well as oyster shells, prawn shells, crab shells, and other seafood scraps are tossed into the sea to feed the crabs and the starfish. It is rare that we need to leave the island with more than a tiny bag of garbage after being there for a week. It is a simple, very hygenic system and little is wasted.
Cleaning not attended will be deducted from the deposit at specified rates; or you may elect to pay an extra cleaning fee of $100 and in that case we must know at the time of booking in order to arrange for the housekeeper to come prior to the time of your departure or at least a little earlier than she normally comes in order that it will be properly ready for the next set of guests. Only our housekeeper may be used. Cancellation Policy: After confirming your booking, you are responsible for the full amount of the rental, but we will make every effort to re-book. If we are successful, the amount received will be deducted from the amount you have paid and returned to you, less a $150 CDN administration fee. You are advised to obtain trip cancellation insurance to cover the possibility of illness, cancelled or delayed airplanes or other transit bookings, etc. Please re-confirm your arrival times with us the day before your arrival and double check your ferry or floatplane reservations, to avoid disappointment, especially on Canadian or American stat holidays such as the May long weekend; Canada Day/USA independence Day weekend - July 1st and 4th, Labour Day (Sept), B.C. Day (Aug), etc. |
