  3. Cancel your booking and receive a full refund of any monies paid

We regret we cannot pay any compensation or any reimbursement of any expenses or costs you may incur because of any such cancellations.

In rare cases, we may have to cancel or reject a booking due to “obvious errors”. For clarity, an obvious error is a mistake on the website (e.g in terms of price) which a reasonable person would not consider to be normal. The amount charged will be reimbursed without charge in such case. Whether to cancel or reject a booking for this reason, is at the sole discretion of the management.

Reservations made through certain third party websites and travel agents may not be eligible for changes or refunds.
