Charm, Character and Culture
Mallorca The largest of the Balearic Islands, Mallorca is an exotic island blessed with Gothic architecture, sun-bathed olive groves and secluded bays. Famed for its stunning scenery, hiking, cycling, golf and sailing, not forgetting, the stunning white sandy beaches and fantastic top quality restaurants. The capital, Palma, is a charming city with a rich history and culture and is well worth a visit. The north and east coasts of the island boast the best beaches by far and are perfect spots to relax and soak up the sun whilst the mountainous north and north west of the island has an array of beautiful olive groves, pine forests and ochre coloured villages all framed by the majestic Serra de Tramuntana. WHEN TO GO Mallorca is a truly year round destination with temperatures on average 8-10ËšCelsius warmer than the UK. April, May, September and October are perfect for the outdoors and sports lovers, golf, cycling and walking are all well catered for here and can all be arranged before you travel. June, July and August offer uninterrupted blue skies and glorious sunshine along with the fiesta season which sees colourful processions and magnificent firework displays in many towns and villages. The winter months can also be enjoyable here with relatively warm temperatures and many sunny days.
Old Town Pollensa
Our resorts in North Mallorca POLLENSA In the north eastern corner of the island, nestled between two peaks of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, Pollensa is divided into two distinct areas, Puerto Pollensa and Old Town Pollensa; both have their own individual character and charm. PUERTO POLLENSA Once a small fishing village, Puerto Pollensa is now a magnificent bay filled with yachts and fishing boats. Tranquil beaches with stunning views across the bay to the rugged headlands make this the perfect place to relax in the sun. With an atmosphere which is both classy and chic it is the perfect resort for dining out in the many restaurants or taking an evening stroll in the shade of the pine trees along the 1.5 km Pine Walk. OLD TOWN POLLENSA With a rarely seen rustic charm, Old Town Pollensa is a town rich in history and culture. During the day the town has a sleepy, tranquil feel but come the evening it bursts into life as people gather in the five plazas clustered around the Plaza Major. Sunday mornings see a bustling market descend on the Plaza Major and we recommend visitors take the opportunity to see this traditional market in all its glory. A walk up the 365 steps to the El Calvari chapel is well worth the effort to appreciate the spectacular views over the surrounding countryside. ALCUDIA Sitting between the Bahia de Pollensa and Puerto Alcudia, this historic town has been restored to its previous glory as a walled city. With its maze of narrow streets, boutique hotels, shops, cafes and restaurants, a stay in Alcudia is perfect to sit and watch the world go by.
CALA SAN VICENTE Built over a rocky outcrop this small village has some challenging terrain in places with parts of the village on steep slopes and having many steps to negotiate. A small fishing fleet, left over from the days of a busy fishing and farming village, now coexists alongside sunbathers and tourists happily sharing the beaches and coves. The relaxed resort with spectacular countryside surrounding it is perfect for ramblers and painters.
GETTING THERE FLYING TIME 2 hours ARRIVAL AIRPORT Palma FLIGHT ROUTE Direct flights from most UK airports to Palma. Scheduled and charter flights operate almost all year round. TRANSFERS Option of hire car or private transfer. Please visit the Holiday Essentials page on our website for more information or call us on 01789 595 434.
CALA FORMENTOR One of the most beautiful locations on the whole Island, Cala Formentor has a spectacular blue flag beach with crystal clear waters and fine white sand and is a popular destination for many holidaymakers.
CHANGEOVER DAY Saturday
BUGER & CAMPANET Very much off the beaten track in terms of tourist destinations on Mallorca these two pretty villages have avoided any large scale tourist developments. If you are looking to discover a true, untouched authentic Majorcan village then you have found it with these two gems.

Lively resort with two beaches and a chic marina within easy walking distance
Mallorca, Cala d’Or A hidden gem in the south east corner of Mallorca, Cala d’Or or golden cove as it translates, offers something for everyone. It is the perfect resort for couples, large groups and families of all ages. Two beautiful clean, safe beaches nesting amongst the coves, a pretty marina with yachts and motor boats to admire and a wide selection of bars, restaurants and coffee shops all combine to make Cala d’Or the perfect holiday destination. For those who like active holidays a golf course just a mile away, quality bike hire and some excellent coastal walks should satisfy all tastes although the best way to appreciate the spectacular scenery is to take a boat or high speed ride along the coast stopping off at the magical coves on the way. For visitors in August Cala d’Or is host to the Fiesta de Deu del Mar, or Lady of the Sea. During the festival the whole town becomes a hive of activity with sporting and music events and a maritime procession around the harbour. The heart of this little town is the pedestrianised centre with its boutiques, open air bars, restaurants and cafes. Whilst Cala d’Or may not have as much charm as some of the older villages in Mallorca its winning formula is that there is plenty to occupy all members of the family right on the doorstep. Cala Serena

Sandy coves, relaxation and historical charm
Menorca The second largest of the Balearic Islands, Menorca has retained its own unique Spanish character and charm. Peaceful holiday resorts line the south coast of Menorca while sleepy fishing villages are dotted along its rockier northern shore. The diversity between the resorts makes Menorca a perfect destination for relaxing on the beach, family fun and exploring the flora, fauna and history of this fabulous island. Mahon, the capital city of Menorca is well worth a visit during your stay. The winding streets are lined with chic boutiques and the town square is a perfect spot for watching the world go by whilst enjoying an ice cream from one of the many geladerias.Weekends often see colourful markets lining the streets selling everything from local crafts to traditional food. Some of the best restaurants on the island can be found in the Port of Menorca; a pleasant evening can be spent here enjoying typical Balearic cuisine whilst watching the yachts and tall ships navigate into the spectacular harbour. Culture and history abound on this island with many archaeological sites and ancient basilicas to visit. Also for animal lovers a night at the Club Escola Menorquina near Ferreries will offer the opportunity to see specially trained Andalucian horses perform in true Spanish tradition.
Cala Galdana
Our resorts in Menorca WHEN TO GO Menorca has the benefit of mild Mediterranean weather in spring and autumn with sizzling summers, but with a continuous breeze the weather is rarely too hot even in the height of summer. May, June and October make for a perfect time to visit with the sea still warm enough to swim in but the sun and heat being milder.
SANTO TOMAS This small, laid-back resort town on Menorca’s south coast has much to recommend it, with the three-kilometre stretch of spotless, gently sloping sands along its beachfront being among them. Offering a smattering of quality restaurants and some pleasant, low-key nightlife, this is a great location for those looking to relax and take it easy.
PUNTA PRIMA Of the many outstanding beaches on the island of Menorca, Punta Prima possesses one of the very best. The gently shelving beach offers safe swimming and beautiful views over the bay. The best bars and restaurants are scattered along the beach road, but you will need a car if you want to venture out for more nightlife.
CALA EN PORTER Situated on the island’s southeast coast, Cala En Porter is a convenient 15-minute transfer from the airport and set along a beautiful, sheltered bay. This popular resort town is a great location for those who don’t want to hire a car during their villa holiday, as everything from nature walks and children’s play areas to shops and bars is on offer here.
CALA GALDANA On the south coast of Menorca close to the town of Ferreries, this is a bustling family resort. At the heart of the resort is a beautiful golden horseshoe beach surrounded by spectacular pine clad cliffs. The shops, bars and restaurants nestle around the bay and a car is not necessary to enjoy this beautiful resort. There are a wealth of activities on offer including boat trips, crazy golf, water sports, cycling and even a small water park for the kids to enjoy. For the more adventurous, walking paths can be found throughout the spectacular countryside.
GETTING THERE FLYING TIME 2 hours ARRIVAL AIRPORT Mahon FLIGHT ROUTE Direct flights from most UK airports to Mahon. Scheduled and charter flights operate from April to October.

The White Coast
Costa Blanca The diverse region of Valencia boasts some of the most spectacular scenery of the West Mediterranean coastline. This continuous string of extensive, white sandy beaches, interrupted occasionally by small rocky coves, bustling fishing ports and upmarket marinas, entices many visitors to its shores time and time again. Majestic rugged mountains where traditional Spanish life still carries on, provide a dramatic backdrop to the lush vegetation of orange and almond groves, the vineyards of this wine producing region and of course, the paddy fields of the Paella capital. Local weekly markets take place in the old quarters of each resort, whilst waterfront promenades are lined with tapas bars, cafes, restaurants and shops to suit every pocket and taste. Golf, tennis, horse riding and every kind of water sport possible ensure that our selection of resorts is perfect for all age groups. Water parks, safari parks and adventure theme parks are just 40 minutes’ drive away and with the two historic cosmopolitan cities of Alicante and Valencia on your doorstep, the list of things to see and do is just endless. WHEN TO GO The micro-climate of the Costa Blanca means that the weather is fantastic all year round. July and August are the hottest months whilst spring and autumn are mild and sunny with temperatures often reaching 19° Celsius or more, perfect weather for a round of golf or a walk in the mountains.
Our resorts in the Costa Blanca JAVEA Javea (Xabia) is a gem of a town situated in the North of the Costa Blanca region and is situated on undoubtedly one of the most beautiful Mediterranean coastlines boasting 320 days of sunshine a year. Enjoy the variety of scenery, mild climate and rugged coastline marked with many secluded coves and sandy beaches. Situated on the most easterly point of mainland Spain, Javea is about 100 km from Valencia and 90 km from Alicante. DENIA On the north side of El Montgo National Park, marking the end of the lush Orba Valley, lies the bustling Spanish town of Denia. Surrounded by cherry, orange and lemon groves this significant town is watched over by the 12th century castle, which served as a fortress against invasion by the Romans and in more recents times the Arabs. Bistrós, cafés and a piano/jazz bar line the waterfront, providing a perfect ambience for a summer evening stroll. Just around the corner, the Costa Blanca Tourist Train has hourly departures from Denia Station, enroute to Alicante City - an economical way to explore the area and definitely an experience not to be missed! BENIARBEIG This prosperous, traditional mountain village, just 10 kilometres from the coast, lies on the left bank of the River Girona. The Vall de la Rectoria is renowned as one of the prettiest valleys in the Costa Blanca, known for its views and picturesque landscape of almonds, olives and carob trees. With a population of around 1,000 and weekly local produce market held in the centre of the village, it’s hard to imagine that a ten minute drive can transport you into the heart of the bustling cosmopolitan town of Denia.
TEULADA - MORAIRA Set behind the Sierra Bernia mountain range, the municipality of Teulada-Moraira stretches 8 kms along the coast and 4 kms inland. Although on a far smaller scale than most resorts in the Costa Blanca this upmarket town brings a touch of class to this section of the Mediterranean coastline. Hosting various watersport events and regattas, boasting numerous Michelin rated restaurants and of course the renowned wine producing region of the Teulada Vineyards there are more than sufficient distractions from your sunbed.

Pristine beaches, temperate climate and activities for all
Algarve Year round sunshine tempered by gentle breezes, almost a hundred miles of unrivalled golden sandy beaches, deserted little coves washed by the blue Atlantic and delightful fishing villages make the Algarve the perfect setting for an idyllic holiday. For the more active, an abundance of golf, tennis, motor racing, karting, water sports, fishing, scuba diving and many more diverse leisure facilities ensure everyone is well catered for. There are many local cultural and historic sites, harbours and marinas to visit along the coastline and for those who like to indulge in a little Portuguese ‘vinho’ many of the local vineyards offer wine tasting tours. Shopping in the quaint local shops and boutiques is fun or if serious ‘retail therapy’ is your thing then the large shopping centres in Portimao and Guia are the perfect places. Bars and restaurants are plentiful in the Algarve and the quality of the food and wine is second to none. Favourites such as Piri Piri chicken can be found almost anywhere and other specialities include ‘bacalhau’- salted cod and all types of fish and seafood which are of excellent quality.
Our resorts in the Algarve WHEN TO GO The Algarve has a long summer season with temperatures being moderated by the gentle breezes. April and May are cooler but perfect for playing golf or other outdoor activities as are September and October.
VILAMOURA Vilamoura is one of Europe’s largest tourist complexes and it is easy to see why, with six golf courses, two beaches, a variety of sports centres and even a casino, this bustling resort caters to every taste.
GUIA A small and unassuming village about 3 miles from the coast, Guia is famous for its Piri Piri chicken and being ‘home’ to its most famous resident, Sir Cliff Richard, who owns a vineyard there. The village is a hive of activity in the evening when the many bars and restaurants come to life serving a whole array of popular Portuguese cuisine.

Arguably one of our most luxurious villas, Casa Do Carlos comes with games room, indoor pool, small gym and the same beds that the Swedish Royal family sleep on.

You will find the cable car, farmers market and plenty of water activities. GARAJOU Located between Funchal and the airport, here you will find plenty of restaurants and cafés, close enough to Funchal to spend time there but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet. Here you will find another cable car offering rides down to the local beach. CALHETA Here you will find one of Madeira’s manmade sandy beaches, situated on the southwest coast 30 minutes from Funchal. A selection of traditional seafood restaurants are also a draw to Calheta, as well as a marina where whale watching boat trips can be taken from. PONTA DO SOL Located between Funchal and Calheta, Ponta Do Sol is known as the sunniest place on the island, due to the very low levels of rain. It is here that you will find vast numbers of fruit plantations.

Island of love with sundrenched days and balmy nights
Cyprus Set at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, Cyprus enjoys 300 days of sunshine each year. A perfect blend of the modern and traditional makes for a varied menu in some fabulous restaurants including some of the very best Sushi restaurants. Activities abound throughout the island and visitors can choose from many water sports, cycling, golf, tennis and many more. Combine your holiday with the annual Tuna run or go 4x4 exploring in the Troodos mountains. Whatever your thing it can be found on Aphrodite’s island of love. WHEN TO GO Cyprus is best in the Spring and Autumn, summer is often too hot for many people. Late winter is also very fine with the countryside at its greenest with wildflower displays peaking in March.
Our resorts in Cyprus CORAL BAY A lively resort just outside Paphos, with its popular sandy beach and abundant restaurants it offers families with young children or teenagers plenty to keep everyone happy. The traditional Cyprus can be found close by if you wish to hunt it out and the Akamas National Park is just a 15 minute drive away.
ARGAKA Just east of the small town of Polis the beachside region of Argaka offers sleepy stretches of beach with some beachfront tavernas. Villas are mainly built into the hillsides behind, backed by pine forests and offering superb views.
LATCHI & POLIS On the unspoilt coast just north of the National Park are Latchi and Polis – some of the most scenic areas in Cyprus. The upmarket marina in Latchi is home to many renowned fish restaurants and Polis with its traditional paved streets takes you back to the Cyprus of old. Peace and tranquillity are easy to achieve here although a short walk will bring you to several local tavernas.

Captivating scenery and genuine hospitality
Kefalonia Once relatively unknown, Kefalonia was rocketed to international fame by the film Captain Corelli’s Mandolin which was filmed almost entirely on the Island. With its panoramic scenery, clear turquoise waters lapping white sandy beaches, many of which are blue flag for cleanliness and the famous Greek hospitality, Kefalonia delivers everything you could wish for. WHEN TO GO Spring (May) and autumn (SeptemberOctober) are our favourite times, being moderately warm (typically 20-30 Celsius). Spring is great for wildflowers and lush landscapes; autumn for warm seas. Midsummer is great for the sun worshipper with hotter temperatures and lively resorts.
GETTING THERE FLYING TIME
Our resorts in Kefalonia FISKARDO A picture postcard fishing harbour situated at the northern tip of the Island, Fiskardo is surely one of the most picturesque settings in the whole of Greece and features a selection of pretty waterfront tavernas and bars. LOURDAS A traditional little village set above the coastline and with its own beach. There are plenty of local amenities and beachside tavernas perfect for watching the sun set. SKALA Skala is a picturesque village situated approx 40kms from Argostoli with a long sandy/shingle stretch of beach. Skala offers nightlife with an excellent choice of both traditional tavernas and smart restaurants, cafes and bars. An ideal holiday resort for families, with an exceptional beach.
KATELIOS Katelios, is located in the south of the island. This friendly, sleepy holiday destination grew up around a quiet fishing village and has developed over the years into a familyfriendly, peaceful beach resort where the emphasis is on relaxation. Katelios has a selection of waterfront tavernas specialising in fresh seafood; shops, bars and a minimarket can be found here too. A few kilometres from Katelios are Kaminia and Mounda beaches, both are famous as locations for nesting loggerhead turtles.
SPARTIA Spartia is located on the south coast in a peaceful countryside location and is within easy reach of the airport. Spartia is a small village that still retains much of its original charm and character. The streets and alleyways are maze-like and were reputedly designed to confuse potential invading pirates in the past, but don’t worry, there are many well-positioned signs to guide you around past a few tavernas, to a nice sandy beach!
ST THOMAS/KLISMATA St Thomas offers a tiny picturesque bay with an excellent taverna hanging over the beach and offers a few small shops. Klismata is a small area with a cluster of houses, a church and a small bay, which varies from season to season, sometimes just a rocky bay with swimming access from the rocks and in other seasons a small sandy beach appears.

Paradise of poetic landscapes and culture
Corfu Corfu is the most famous of the Ionian Islands. It is a sophisticated island that attracts thousands of visitors every year. The natural beauty, beautiful beaches and vivid nightlife as well as the “jewel”, the enchanting Venetian town of Corfu, have made Corfu one of the most sought-after destinations in the Mediterranean. The “beautiful and rich land” of Homer is a paradise of poetic landscapes and culture. Its strategic position made the island vulnerable to foreign conquests. As a result, a blend of the Venetian, British and French cultures was integrated to the Greek identity. These western influences are prominent in the island’s architecture. The town seems like a fresco painting that has come to life.
Our resorts in Corfu KASSIOPI Topped by the ruins of the old Fortress on the headland Kassiopi is a town with ancient roots. Kasseiopeia from Ancient times, it was colonised by the Romans. A small fishing village back in the 70’s, it has grown into a small town based around the busy harbour. Kassiopi offers everything except for large hotels and high rise buildings, it still feels like a village; café, bars and restaurants line the harbour and the road up to the main square. The beaches are pebble and found to left and right of the harbour itself. Just a few kilometres outside Kassiopi is the bay of Kalamaki, this is a dream for families with younger children, flat sand and very gently shelving waters. There is a beachside restaurant here.
DASSIA Right at the southernmost point of this coastline is a well established resort. The area is mainly flat so this area is great for easy walking. There are a few large hotels fronting the long strip of shingle/sand beach, water sports and masses of restaurants, shops and bars to choose from. Mainly a family resort Dassia has something to offer everyone and an excellent bus service runs to Corfu Town. NISSAKI Nissaki is an area spread out over the foothills of Mount Pantocrator offering beautiful little bays ideal for swimming and snorkelling. A small harbour houses the fishing boats and self drive boats for hire. Nissaki offers a good selection of tavernas right on the water’s edge as well as up on the road in the village. It is a quiet area, aimed at families and couples looking for relaxation. The views are breathtaking!

Villa Zantre CHANIA | SLEEPS 6
Zantre sits almost on top of the cliff overlooking the sea just outside Stavros on the coast at Akrotiri with stunning open sea views and so close you can hear the waves below on the rocks! A modern bungalow style villa, the sea views can be enjoyed from the front balcony as well as the pool area and veranda situated to the side of the house.
WHEN TO GO Late spring and early autumn are the best times to go if you aren’t a fan of very hot temperatures, these times of year offer few rainy days and mild temperatures but with swimmable sea temperatures. High summer can get very hot with temperatures soaring to 26 degrees and with very little rain, it is also the busiest season and so early booking is highly recommended. HERAKLION The island’s capital and the fourth largest city in Greece as a whole, this working city can be overwhelming at times but it does come with a certain honest charm. Around the city you will find many fountains, statues, sculptures and busts memorialising the city’s extensive history. RETHYMNON Steeped in history, with buildings dating back to the 16th century, this town is in competition with Chania to be Crete’s prettiest town. AGIOS NIKOLAOS Crete’s main tourist resort; this bustling town named after the patron saint of Greece, St Nicholas, has plenty of tourist attractions from beaches to museums, a lagoon and even an ex leper colony. There is also a daily ferry service to Heraklion. CHANIA Located halfway between Heraklion and Rethymnon the city of Chania can be split into two regions, the old town where you will find the mostly destroyed old Venetian wall and the crumbling harbour and the modern side which although fairly developed (due to the historic buildings being destroyed) is still a beautiful urban district. 110

ST LUCIA
Dreamy beaches, lush landscapes and vibrant culture
The Caribbean The region known simply as, The Caribbean, is made up of hundreds of tropical islands many people call ‘heaven-on-earth’ or ‘paradise’ for short. With its verdant valleys of sugar cane and bananas, coconut tree clad mountains, spectacular seashore and beaches as well as glitzy bars, restaurants and nightlife, the islands definitely have something for everyone. WHEN TO GO The main tourist season runs from December to May, with December being the best month for sunshine. July is the hottest month. August to November is the wettest season and brings the risk of hurricanes (though expect short rain showers at any time of the year). BARBADOS The most diverse island in the Caribbean, Barbados offers a truly authentic experience with its rich culture and history rooted in remarkable landscapes. From the rugged beauty and wild beaches of Bathsheba in the east to the glamorous west, the vibrant south with its thumping nightlife and the quiet, calm north all combine to make this tiny island the destination of choice for A-listers, writers and lovers of the good life. A friendly and hospitable island, Barbados is a firm favourite with all holidaymakers.
BARBADOS CARIBBEAN SEA
GRENADA
More Dreamy Caribbean Islands GRENADA A mountainous island, covered with fragrant spice trees and rare tropical flowers. Stunning beaches, and picturesque towns, this verdant island has long been a major source of nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cinnamon, and cocoa. The interior of this volcanic island features cascading rivers, waterfalls, lush rainforests, and a breathtaking mountain lake. The capital, St. George’s, is thought by many to be the loveliest city in the Caribbean. The horseshoe-shaped harbour is surrounded by pretty dockside warehouses and the red-tiled roofs of traditional shops and homes. A rich history and vibrant cultural heritage make for a fascinating island to visit. ST LUCIA A small, lush tropical gem that is still relatively unknown. One of the Windward Islands of the Lesser Antilles, St Lucia is just north of Barbados. The Atlantic Ocean kisses its eastern shore, while the beaches of the west coast owe their beauty to the calm Caribbean Sea. The Pitons, two dramatic coastal peaks shelter magnificent rainforests where wild orchids, giant ferns, and birds of paradise flourish. Brilliantly-plumed tropical birds abound, including endangered species like the indigenous St. Lucia parrot. The rainforest is broken only by verdant fields and orchards of banana, coconut, mango, and papaya trees.

Know Before You Book – Please Read RENTING YOUR VILLA All prices are for the rental of the villa. Accommodation is priced per week and not per person and includes the villa rental, electricity, gas and water charges, swimming pool maintenance, maid service as stated, laundry, a complimentary welcome pack on arrival on all full priced holidays and the services of our resident representatives. You may rent any villa, in multiples of one week for as long as you require. The villa may be rented for any number of persons, excluding babies in cots, up to the maximum as indicated in the brochure description. In some we can put in an extra bed (suitable for a child or teenager) at a charge of £50.00 per bed per week, details on request.

VILLA SELECT
The villa becomes available for occupation from 4.00pm on the changeover day and vacation is before 10.00am on the day of departure. We endeavour however to make the accommodation available for clients arriving on early flights wherever possible, although the villa may not be fully prepared at this time. (Please see our terms and conditions on page 132-135). FLY DIRECT FROM YOUR LOCAL AIRPORT One of the advantages of booking your holiday with us is the freedom of choice that we give all our clients with regards to their flight arrangements. You can book the accommodation only with us, however, our specialist flight department can offer you a range of scheduled or charter flights from
Call 01789 595 434 | www.villaselect.com
your local airport at a time to suit you and at the most competitive price available. Booking all accommodation and travel arrangements with us allows you to enjoy complete financial security of your holiday arrangements. After many years providing high quality holidays and service, we pride ourselves in the knowledge of the ‘seat market’ and only act as agents for those companies who have a ‘tried and tested’ track record for their service and reliability. The choice is simply yours! CAR HIRE AND SELF DRIVE MINIBUS We have many villas where a car is not a necessity and others where we believe a car is essential and this is clearly marked in our brochure descriptions. We will arrange for you to collect your car from the airport upon your
arrival and will send you detailed directions on how to find your villa. Alternatively, we will arrange a private transfer and will have your hire car delivered to your villa if you so wish. PRIVATE TRANSFERS If you prefer your hire car delivered to your villa, or decide not to hire a car whilst on holiday, we are happy to arrange a transfer service by private car or minibus. This executive service is available directly from your destination airport to your holiday accommodation and return. VILLAS – A GREAT PLACE FOR CHILDREN Villa holidays in particular are ideal for young children and infants and we will be happy to pass on any advice to make your holiday run
more smoothly. Remember that generally there is only a small administration fee charged by the airlines for infants under 2 years of age by the date of their return flight home, as long as they sit on the lap of an adult. COTS, HIGHCHAIRS, BUGGIES Cots and highchairs are available at an additional charge in all of our resorts. Please advise at the time of booking if you require either of these items. Being of local design they often do not carry the safety straps as featured on U.K. models. Our car hire companies are happy to provide ‘baby seats’ for very small children (under 2 years), but again these are of local design. Please advise at the time of booking if you require baby
seats. Charter airlines do permit the carriage of baby seats in the hold of the aircraft if you feel more comfortable in taking your own British Standard child seat with you. Baby buggies may again be taken and transported in the hold of the aircraft for your convenience. We suggest that all parents take their own buggy with them on holiday. YOUR HOLIDAY GUIDE AND VILLA HANDBOOK INCLUDED IN YOUR WEEKLY RENTAL Free with every one of our villa holidays comes your personally written information guide to assist you on your way and to ensure a trouble-free holiday.
MAID SERVICE All villas include maid service and the frequency of this service depends on the villa. SERVICES & FACILITIES INCLUDED • Bed linen and towels • Complimentary welcome pack on arrival (applies to selected villas, not included on reduced villas) • All gas and electricity charges • Air-conditioning (available where stated) • Pool maintenance and cleaning • Swimming pool towels • Representation by our agents at your villa • A complimentary Villa Select guide

Booking Conditions Please read these Terms & Conditions carefully along with “How to Book” and “What’s Included in Your Holiday” they contain important information, which form your holiday contract with Villa Select Ltd. These Booking Conditions together with the general information set out above form the basis of your contract with Villa Select, a brand of the International Travel Connections Ltd of Concorde House, Canal Street, Chester, UK. CH1 4EJ company registration number 8687765 (“the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”). They only apply to holiday arrangements which you book with us in the UK and which we agree to make, provide or perform (as applicable) as part of our contract with you. All references in these booking conditions to “holiday”, “booking”, “contract”, “package”, “tour” or “arrangements” mean such holiday arrangements unless otherwise stated. In these Booking Conditions, “you” and “your” means all persons named on the booking (including anyone who is added or substituted at a later date) or any of them as the context requires. Please note that the booking of villas, cruises and yachts is governed by separate Booking Conditions and will be supplied at the time of booking or on request. The Booking Conditions describe your obligations to the Company and the obligations of the Company to you. Please read them carefully. 1. YOUR RESERVATION To make your reservation, please call us and one of our expert Travel Specialists will provide you with first-hand information on your chosen destination. You must then confirm your booking, either: • By telephone - your Travel Specialist will reiterate all aspects of your itinerary, ask you to provide details* from the passports of each person travelling and confirm that you have read and agreed to our Booking Conditions. You will then be asked for payment of the required deposit or full payment if booking after balance due date. You can pay by cheque, debit/credit/charge**card or by bank transfer (details on request). You will be required to complete our Booking Form and email or post it to us, so that we can check that all of your details and requirements are accurate. Incorrect information supplied will be subject to amendment charges as stated in Clause 6 (1). A contract between us will come into existence when we despatch our confirmation invoice to you to confirm your booking. • By post or e-mail - complete and sign the enclosed Booking Form and send it to us with the appropriate payment. We will send you a confirmation invoice and a contract will exist between us once this has been despatched to you. When you seek to make a booking after balance due date, full payment of your holiday will be required by the quickest method of clearance. The lead passenger name should be the person who has confirmed the booking/signed the Booking Form. We treat the lead passenger as having the authority to book the holiday on behalf of all passengers. • By using our online agreement system, please follow the instructions on the screen and complete the required fields. We would refer you to our Privacy Policy and Terms of use of the site. You will be asked to accept that you have read and agree to these Booking Conditions before submitting your itinerary to us. We will then confirm receipt by email. You will then be asked for payment of the required deposit, usually 30% of the holiday cost, or full payment if the booking is made after balance due date. Receipt of the applicable payment within the stipulated timescale will bring a contract between us into existence. We will then issue and send you a confirmation invoice. For all bookings where only a deposit is paid at the time of booking, the remaining balance must be received by us 70 days prior to departure, unless otherwise stated. Nonpayment or late payment of your outstanding balance may result in your booking being treated as cancelled by you, in which case, the cancellation charges set out in Clause 6 will be incurred. Contact us immediately if any information which appears on the confirmation invoice or any other document appears to be incorrect or incomplete as it may not be possible to make changes later. We regret we cannot accept any liability if we are not notified of any inaccuracies (for which we are responsible) in any document within ten days of our sending it out (five days for tickets). We will do our best to rectify any mistake notified to us outside these time limits but you must meet any costs involved in doing so. If you book through one of our authorised travel agents, please note that all monies paid to your travel agent for a holiday which does not

BOOKING CONDITIONS
include any flights are at all times held by the travel agent on behalf of the Company. For flight inclusive bookings, all monies paid to any authorised travel agent of ours for your holiday with us will be held on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust subject to the travel agent’s obligation to pay such monies to us in accordance with our trading terms unless we fail. In the unlikely event of our financial failure, all monies then held by the travel agent or subsequently paid by you to the travel agent will be held by the agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation on the agent to pay such monies to us. *Information required prior to flight check-in for some destinations. **Full payment, deposits and balances made with a credit or charge card (Switch and debit cards excluded) will automatically incur an additional 1.5% charge of the payment. 2. PRICE POLICY We reserve the right to vary the price of unsold arrangements and to correct any errors of which we become aware at any time. Please check the up to date price when booking. You will be advised of the applicable price before your booking is confirmed. Once the price of your chosen holiday has been confirmed at the time of booking, then subject to the correction of errors, we will only increase or decrease the price in the following circumstances. Price increases or decreases after booking will be passed on by way of a surcharge or refund. A surcharge or refund (as applicable) will be payable, subject to the conditions set out in this clause, in the event of any change in our transportation costs including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes, embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. Even in the above cases, only if the amount of any increase in our costs exceeds 2% of the total cost of your holiday (excluding any amendment charges) will we levy a surcharge. If any surcharge is greater than 10% of the cost of your holiday (excluding insurance premiums and any amendment charges), you will be entitled to cancel your booking and receive a full refund of all monies you have paid to us (except for any amendment charges) or alternatively purchase another holiday from us as referred to in clause 7 “Alterations and Cancellations by the Company”. Although insurance (where purchased through us) does not form part of your contract with us or of any “package”, we will consider an appropriate refund of any insurance premiums you have paid us if you can show you are unable to use/reuse or transfer your policy in the event of cancellation or purchase of an alternative holiday. Where applicable you have 14 days from the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice to tell us if you want to choose option b) or c) as set out in clause 7 below. If you do not tell us that you wish to choose either of these options within this period of time, we are entitled to assume that you do not wish to do so and will pay the surcharge. Any surcharge must be paid with the balance of the cost of the holiday or within 14 days of the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice, whichever is the later. Please note that arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your holiday due to contractual and other protection in place. A refund will only be payable if the decrease in our costs exceeds 2% of the total cost of your holiday as set out above. Where a refund is due, we will pay you the full amount of the decrease in our costs. We promise not to levy a surcharge within 30 days of departure. No refund will be payable during this period either. The prices shown on our website are calculated based on currency exchange rates as of 18 April 2017 (GB Pound to US$1.20, Euro 1.10, Thai Baht 45.00) 3. INSURANCE We believe that it is essential to take out comprehensive travel insurance when you go on holiday and we strongly recommend that to do so is in your interests and those of your family. We also ask that you provide us with the details of your insurer, the policy number and the emergency contact details to assist you in the event of an accident or emergency abroad. It will be necessary for you to comply with the requirements of the policy in the event of a potential claim; e.g. reporting a theft to the local police.

your responsibility to ensure that the insurance cover you purchase is suitable and adequate for your particular needs. We do not check alternative insurance policies. 4. BROCHURE & WEBSITE ACCURACY The descriptions in our brochures and on our websites, may be prepared many months in advance but are believed correct to the best of our knowledge at the time of printing or publication. The availability of services and amenities may be affected by local conditions, such as inclement weather or the season. Suppliers of accommodation, transport and recreational facilities can make changes with no advance notice to us. When we become aware of any significant changes, we will advise you or your travel agent at the time of booking or, if after booking, as soon as possible before departure. The provisions of clause 7 will apply when a significant change is notified after the booking. 5. PROVISION OF TRANSPORT & ACCOMMODATION The various carriers who provide transport as described in our brochure and on our website, have their own terms and conditions. International and sometimes national travel is subject to international conventions and regulations (such as EU regulations). The carriers’ terms and conditions may limit and/or exclude the supplier’s liability to you, usually in accordance with applicable international conventions or regulations. For more information on these, see Clause 10(ii)f). Air travel is also subject to the operational decisions of air carriers and of airports, which may result in delays, aircraft being diverted or schedule changes over which the Company has no control. The Company can provide you with copies of all relevant conventions, regulations and conditions upon request. In accordance with EU Regulation 2111/2005 we are required to advise you of the actual carrier(s) (or, if the actual carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) (including any connecting flight or transfer) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we will inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. Due to the flexible itineraries that we offer, we are not able to state these facts in our brochure and on our website. Any changes to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate. Due to the nature of the airline business, on rare occasions flight delays regrettably do happen. In such an event, while we will work with the airline to ensure any delay is as short and comfortable as possible, it remains the airline’s responsibility to look after you. Depending on the length and cause of the delay, meals and accommodation and/or compensation may be available. See Airline Delays and Passenger Rights in the Essential Information section. Our brochure and website detail our sole responsibility. They are not published on behalf of and do not commit any independent organisations/carriers whose services are featured in it. 6. ALTERATIONS AND CANCELLATIONS BY YOU (i) Should you wish to make any changes to your confirmed booking, you must notify us in writing as soon as possible. Whilst we will endeavour to assist, we cannot guarantee we will be able to meet any such requests. Where we can, an amendment fee of £25 per booking, or £50 per booking if the amendment is made within 46 days of departure, will be payable together with any costs incurred by ourselves and any costs or charges incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers. A change of holiday dates will normally be treated as a cancellation of the original booking and rebooking in which case cancellation charges will apply. Changes may result in the recalculation of the holiday price where, for example, the basis on which the price of the original holiday was calculated has changed. If any member of your party is prevented from travelling, the person(s) concerned may transfer their place to someone else (introduced by you) providing we are notified not less than two weeks before departure. Where a transfer to a person of your choice can be made, all costs and charges incurred by us and/or incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers as a result together with an amendment fee of £100.00 must be paid before the transfer can be effected. Any overdue balance payment must also be received. For flight inclusive bookings, you must pay the charges levied by the airline concerned. As most airlines do not permit name changes after tickets have been issued for any reason, these
charges are likely to be the full cost of the flight. (ii) Should you or any member of your party need to cancel your holiday, the lead person who made the booking and/or signed the Booking Form must immediately advise us in writing. Your notice of cancellation will only be effective when it is received by us in writing. As we incur costs from the time we accept your booking the following cancellation charges will be payable. Where the cancellation charge is shown as a percentage, this is calculated based on the total invoice cost payable excluding amendment charges, which are not refundable. Please note that when part cancellations occur, the amount payable by the rest of the party may increase. PERIOD BEFORE DEPARTURE CANCELLATION FEE PER PERSON OVER 70 DAYS LOSS OF DEPOSIT*** 70 - 57 DAYS 40% OF HOLIDAY PRICE 56 - 43 DAYS 75% OF HOLIDAY PRICE 42 DAYS or less 100% OF HOLIDAY PRICE *** Bookings on some airlines and hotels during the peak season will have varying cancellation charges and, therefore, the fees shown above will not apply. The charges will be calculated and advised to you at the time of cancellation. 7. ALTERATIONS & CANCELLATIONS BY THE COMPANY Occasionally, we have to make changes to and correct any errors in brochures, websites, and other material published by us, both before and after bookings have been confirmed and cancel confirmed bookings. We must reserve the right to do so. However, we will not cancel your holiday unless you fail to make full payment on time, we are forced to do so as a result of circumstances or minimum numbers apply. Certain holidays are subject to minimum numbers – price boxes on the relevant pages will indicate where this is the case. We will advise you at least 61 days before departure where we are unable to operate the holiday because the required minimum number has not been reached. In this case, you will be offered the options shown below. Most changes we have to make are minor. Sometimes, we have to make a ‘significant change’. Significant changes include the following when made before departure: • A change of accommodation to that of a lower price or standard for the whole or a major part of the time you are away • A change of accommodation area for the whole or a major part of the time you are away • A change of departure time of any transport which forms part of your holiday arrangements by more than 12 hours • A change of the overall length of the holiday by more than 12 hours • A change of the UK departure airport to one that is inconvenient for you. If we become aware of a significant change or we have to cancel the booking before departure, you or your travel agent will be notified as soon as is practically possible. You will then be offered the following options of: a) Accepting the changed arrangements as notified to you, or b) Purchasing an alternative holiday from us, of a similar standard to that originally booked if available. We will offer you at least one alternative holiday of equivalent or higher standard for which you will not be asked to pay any more than the price of the original holiday. If this holiday is in fact cheaper than the original one, we will refund the price difference. If you do not wish to accept the holiday we specifically offer you, you may choose any of our other then available holidays. You must pay the applicable price of any such holiday. This will mean you are paying more if it is more expensive or receiving a refund if it is cheaper, or c) Cancelling your holiday and receiving a full refund of all monies you have paid to us. In addition, if we have to cancel or make a significant change after the date you are obliged to pay the balance of your holiday cost, we will pay you compensation as set out below, subject to the following exceptions: Compensation will not be payable and no liability, beyond offering the above mentioned choices where applicable, can be accepted where (1) we are forced to cancel or make a change as a result of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which we could not have avoided even with all
due care or (2) we have to cancel because the minimum number of bookings necessary for us to operate the holiday has not been reached (see above). No compensation will be payable and the above options will not be available if we cancel as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel (such as paying on time) or where a change is a minor one. A minor change is any change which is not significant. For touring holidays, it may be necessary to make changes to the accommodation, routing or order of the itinerary. Unless the holiday is significantly altered as a result, any such change will not be treated as a significant change. Very rarely, we may be forced by “force majeure” (see Clause 8) to change or terminate your holiday after departure but before the scheduled end of your time away. This is extremely unlikely but if this situation does occur, we regret we will be unable to make any refunds (unless we obtain any refunds from our suppliers), pay you any compensation or meet any costs or expenses you incur as a result. Compensation Payable as set out above: Days Before Departure Compensation per person 43 or more Nil 42 to 29 £10 28 to 15 £20 14 to 0 £30 EVENT CANCELLATION: Occasionally, advertised events are cancelled by the organisers and often at short notice. Such cancellation will not constitute a significant change to, or the cancellation of, your holiday arrangements even though we have pre-booked tickets for you. 8. FORCE MAJEURE Except where otherwise expressly stated in these Booking Conditions, we regret we cannot accept any liability or pay any compensation where the performance or prompt performance of our contractual obligations is prevented or affected by or you otherwise suffer any damage, loss or expense of any nature as a result of “force majeure”. In these Booking Conditions, “force majeure” means any event that we or the supplier of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Such events may include but are not limited to (and whether actual or threatened) war, riot, civil disobedience or strife, terrorist activity, industrial dispute, natural disaster, adverse weather conditions, adverse flooding, fire, unavoidable technical problems with transport and all similar events outside our control. Advice from the Foreign Office against all travel or all but essential travel to a particular country or area will generally be regarded as ‘force majeure’. FCO travel advice appears on their website www.fco.gov. uk/knowbeforeyougo which you are recommended to consult before booking and in good time before departure. 9. SPECIAL REQUESTS Any special request must be advised in writing well in advance of departure if it was not already stated on your original booking form or at the time of booking. We will make every reasonable effort to make the arrangements. We do not however, have any legal liability to you in the event that we or a third party is unable to comply with your special requests. Confirmation that a special request has been noted or passed on to the supplier or the inclusion of the special request on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation is not confirmation that the request will be met. Unless and until specifically confirmed, all special requests are subject to availability. For your own protection, you should obtain confirmation in writing that a special request will be complied with (where it is possible to give this) where it is important to you. You will not be entitled to cancel (without paying our normal cancellation charges) if we are unable to comply with your special request. We regret that we cannot accept any conditional booking (i.e. any booking that is specified to be conditional upon the fulfilment of a particular request). 10. LIABILITY (i) You to the Company: (a) It is your responsibility to arrive at places stated at the correct times and to reconfirm your return flight and departure times. The
Company has no liability whatsoever to you for your failure to do so. (b) You must act and behave in a reasonable and responsible manner towards any other person you meet in the course of your travel arrangements. If in our reasonable opinion or in the reasonable opinion of any other person in authority, you behave in such a way as to cause or be likely to cause danger, upset or distress to any third party or damage to property, we are entitled, without prior notice, to terminate the holiday of the person(s) concerned. In this situation, the person(s) concerned will be required to leave the accommodation or other service. We will have no further responsibility towards such person(s) including any return travel arrangements. No refunds will be made and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of the termination. (c) You accept responsibility for any damage or loss caused by you. Full payment for any such damage or loss (reasonably estimated if not precisely known) must be made direct to the accommodation owner or manager or other supplier or to us as soon as possible. If the actual cost of the loss or damage exceeds the amount paid where estimated, you must pay the difference once known. If the actual cost is less than the amount paid, the difference will be refunded. You will also be responsible for meeting any claims subsequently made against us and all costs incurred by us (including our own and the other party’s full legal costs) as a result of your actions. You should ensure you have appropriate travel insurance to protect you if this situation arises. (ii) The Company to You: a) We promise to make sure that the holiday arrangements we have agreed to make, perform or provide as applicable as part of our contract with you are made, performed or provided with reasonable skill and care. This means that, subject to these booking conditions, we will accept responsibility if, for example, you suffer death or personal injury or your contracted holiday arrangements are not provided as promised or prove deficient as a result of the failure of ourselves, our employees, agents or suppliers to use reasonable skill and care in making, performing or providing, as applicable, your contracted holiday arrangements. Please note, it is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make a claim against us. In addition, we will only be responsible for what our employees, agents and suppliers do or do not do if they were at the time acting within the course of their employment (for employees) or carrying out work we had asked them to do (for agents and suppliers). b) We will not be responsible for any injury, illness, death, loss (including loss of enjoyment or possessions), damage, expense, cost or other sum or claim of any description whatsoever which results from any of the following: - the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected or any member(s) of their party or the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable or ‘force majeure’ as defined in clause 8 above c) Please note we cannot accept responsibility for any services which do not form part of our contract. This includes, for example, any additional services another supplier agrees to provide for you where the services or facilities are not advertised by us and we have not agreed to arrange them as part of our contract and any excursion you purchase in resort. Please also see Clause 11. In addition, regardless of any wording used by us on our website, in any advertising material or elsewhere, we only promise to use reasonable skill and care as set out above and we do not have any greater or different liability to you. d) The promises we make to you about the services we have agreed to provide or arrange as part of our contract - and the laws and regulations of the country in which your claim or complaint occurred - will be used as the basis for deciding whether the services in question had been properly provided. If the particular services which gave rise to the claim or complaint complied with local laws and regulations applicable to those services at the time, the services will be treated as having been properly provided. This will be the case even if the services did not comply with the laws and regulations of the UK which would have applied had those services been provided in the UK. The exception to this is where the claim or complaint concerns the absence of a safety feature which might lead a reasonable holidaymaker to refuse to take the holiday in question. Please note, however, our obligation is to exercise reasonable skill and care as referred to in clause 10(ii)a). We do not
make any representation or commitment that all services will comply with applicable local laws and regulations and failure to comply does not automatically mean we have not exercised reasonable skill and care. e) As set out in these booking conditions, we limit the maximum amount we may have to pay you for any claims you may make against us. Where we are found liable for loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions (including money), the maximum amount we will have to pay you is £250 per person affected unless a lower limitation applies to your claim under Clause 10(ii)f) below. You must ensure you have appropriate travel insurance to protect your personal belongings. For all other claims which do not involve death or personal injury, if we are found liable to you on any basis the maximum amount we will have to pay you is twice the price (excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges) paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total unless a lower limitation applies to your claim under Clause 10(ii)f) below. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit at all from your holiday. f) Where any claim or part of a claim (including those involving death or personal injury) concerns or is based on any travel arrangements (including the process of getting on and/or off the transport concerned) provided by any air, sea or rail carrier to which any international convention or EU regulation applies, the maximum amount of compensation we will have to pay you will be limited. The most we will have to pay you for that claim or that part of a claim if we are found liable to you on any basis is the most the carrier concerned would have to pay under the international convention or regulation which applies to the travel arrangements in question (for example, the Warsaw Convention as amended or unamended and the Montreal Convention for international travel by air and/or for airlines with an operating licence granted by an EU country, the EC Regulation on Air Carrier Liability No 889/2002 for national and international travel by air, the Athens Convention for international travel by sea (as amended by the 2002 Protocol with effect from 31st December 2012) and COTIF, the Convention on International Travel by Rail). Please note: where a carrier would not be obliged to make any payment to you under the applicable international convention or regulation in respect of a claim or part of a claim, we similarly are not obliged to make a payment to you for that claim or part of the claim. When making any payment, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from the carrier for the complaint or claim in question. Copies of the applicable international conventions and regulations are available from us on request. g) Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss, expense or other sum(s) of any description (1) which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you or (2) which did not result from any breach of contract or other fault by ourselves or our employees or, where we are responsible for them, our suppliers. Additionally we cannot accept liability for any business losses. h) CHANGES DURING THE HOLIDAY If we are unable to provide a significant proportion of your villa holiday whilst you are away, suitable alternative arrangements will be made for you at no extra cost to you, or, alternatively, you will be returned to your point of departure and given a pro-rata refund for any part of the holiday not received. This does not apply to minor changes in your accommodation, itinerary or transportation i) CANCELLATION BY US Whilst we hope we will never have to cancel your holiday this does very occasionally happen and we reserve the right to do so. Should it be necessary to cancel your holiday we will endeavour to offer alternative travel arrangements of equivalent or similar standards, together with a price refund, if appropriate. Alternatively, we will provide a full and prompt refund of all services purchased directly from us, this excludes pre-purchased non-refundable air travel booked for you by us as an additional service. j) LOW BOOKINGS Compensation is not payable if a holiday or tour does not take place because a required minimum number of passengers to enable
the holiday or tour to take place has not been reached and you were informed of that requirement at the time of booking. 11. EXCURSIONS AND ACTIVITIES We may provide you with information (before departure and/or when you are on holiday) about activities and excursions which are available in the area you are visiting. We have no involvement in any such activities or excursions which are neither run, supervised, controlled nor endorsed in any way by us. They are provided by local operators or other third parties who are entirely independent of us. They do not form any part of your contract with us even where we suggest particular operators/other third parties and/or assist you in booking such activities or excursions in any way. We cannot accept any liability on any basis in relation to such activities or excursions and the acceptance of liability contained in Clause 10(ii)a) will not apply to them. We do not however exclude liability for the negligence of ourselves or our employees resulting in your death or personal injury. We cannot guarantee accuracy at all times of information given in relation to such activities or excursions or about the area you are visiting generally or that any particular excursion or activity which does not form part of our contract will take place as these services are not under our control. 12. DATA PROTECTION In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements, we *(and your travel agent) need to use the information you provide such as name, address, personal information including any special needs/ dietary requirements, etc. We take appropriate technical and organisational measures which are intended to prevent unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data. We are required to pass the information on to the relevant suppliers of your travel arrangements such as airlines, hotels and transport companies. The information may be required by and provided to security or credit checking companies, financial institutions, public authorities such as customs, border control and immigration if required by them, or as required by law. Your personal data may be stored, used and otherwise processed within the UK and/or any other country(ies) of the European Economic Area (EEA). EEA countries are all member states of the European Union together with Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. We may also store, use or otherwise process personal data outside the EEA. Data protection laws may not be as strong outside the EEA as they are in the EEA. .Personal data will not be transferred to a country outside the EEA unless (1) the country to which it is transferred is one which the European Commission considers to provide an adequate level of data protection or (2) the personal data is transferred to a United States company which has signed up to the Safe Harbour scheme or (3) the personal data is transferred to a company which is required by our contract with them only to deal with the data in accordance with our instructions and to maintain appropriate security to protect the personal data which we are satisfied they have or (4) We are obliged to provide the personal data to a government / public authority in order to provide your holiday. We will not, however, pass any information onto any person who is not responsible for part of your travel arrangements or as we are legally obliged to do. This applies to any sensitive information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities, or dietary/ religious requirements. If we cannot pass this information to the relevant suppliers, (whether in the EEA or not), we cannot confirm your booking. In making this booking, you consent to this information being passed on to the relevant persons. If you have booked using our online system, please ensure that you have read our Privacy Policy. *Please note that where information is also held by your travel agent, this is subject to their own data protection policy. Your data controller is International Travel Connections Ltd. You are generally entitled to ask us (by letter or e-mail) what details of yours are being held or processed, for what purpose and to whom they may be or have been disclosed. We will charge a fee to respond to such a request. We promise to respond to your request within 40 days of receiving your written request and fee. In certain limited circumstances we are entitled to refuse your request.

13. COMPLAINTS AND ABTA ARBITRATION Whilst we aim to ensure that your holiday runs smoothly, there may be times when it does not. Please follow the complaints procedure below to minimise inconvenience to all parties: 1. Any complaint should be reported immediately and directly to the supplier and, as soon as possible, to our local representative (where applicable). If you fail to follow this simple procedure, your right to claim compensation may be affected, as we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify the problem. 2. In the unlikely event that neither our representative nor our supplier is able to resolve the matter to your complete satisfaction, please telephone or e-mail the details of your complaint during your holiday to us on Tel +44(0)1789 595 434, E-mail holidays@ villaselect.com. Any costs incurred in doing so will be fully refunded. 3. Once in receipt of a complaint, we will react swiftly to resolve the matter. Our aim is to rectify any shortcomings immediately, so that you can fully enjoy the remainder of your holiday. If you still have cause for complaint on your return to the UK, you are required to seek satisfaction by writing to the Company within 28 days of the end of your holiday and providing full details of the holiday and the reason for dissatisfaction. We regret that we cannot accept liability in relation to any complaint or claim which is not notified entirely in accordance with this clause. Disputes arising out of, or in connection with your booking which cannot be amicably settled may be referred to arbitration if you so wish under a special scheme arranged by ABTA Ltd and administered independently. The scheme provides for a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with restricted liability on the customer in respect of costs. Full details will be provided on request or can be obtained from the ABTA website (www.abta.com). The scheme does not apply to claims for an amount greater than £5,000 per person. There is also a limit of £25,000 per booking. Neither does it apply to claims which are solely in respect of physical injury or illness or their consequences. The scheme can however deal with compensation claims which include an element of minor injury or illness subject to a limit of £1,500 on the amount the arbitrator can award per person in respect of this element. Your application for arbitration and other required documents must be received by ABTA within 18 months of your return from the holiday. Outside this time limit arbitration under the scheme may still be available if we agree, although the ABTA Code does not require such agreement. For injury and illness claims, you can request the ABTA mediation procedure and we have the option to agree to this. Where we act as agent, please bear in mind that your contract is with the supplier of the arrangements concerned. Unless the supplier is also a member of ABTA, only disputes relating to our actions as agent can be dealt with by the arbitration scheme or mediation procedure and not complaints about the arrangements themselves or the acts / omissions of the supplier. 14. FINANCIAL PROTECTION We hold an Air Travel Organiser’s Licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (ATOL number 2786). When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday* from us, you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit, you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have
134
BOOKING CONDITIONS
arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent or your credit card issuer where applicable. You also agree that any such claims may be reassigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. *The flights and flightinclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected providing they are made available in the UK. For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. We are also a member of ABTA (ABTA number V2359). If your holiday does not include flights, ABTA will financially protect your holiday by ensuring you receive a refund or, if your arrangements include return travel to the UK (other than flights) you are returned to the UK in the event that your holiday cannot be provided as a result of our insolvency. Please go to www.abta.com for a copy of the guide to ABTA’s scheme of Financial Protection. 15. LAW AND JURISDICTION We both agree that English law (and no other) will apply to your contract and to any dispute, claim or other matter of any description which arises between us (“claim”) except as set out below. We both also agree that any claim must be dealt with by the ABTA arbitration scheme referred to above or Courts of England and Wales only unless, in the case of Court proceedings, you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland. In this case, proceedings must either be brought in the Courts of your home country or those of England and Wales. If proceedings are brought in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may choose to have your contract and any claim governed by the law of Scotland/Northern Ireland as applicable (but if you do not so choose, English law will apply).

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION YOUR HOLIDAY ENVIRONMENT We are unable to accept responsibility for any discomfort or inconvenience caused by the weather and climate conditions in your resort and will endeavour to resolve any situation caused as a result of adverse weather conditions promptly. In addition we ask you to consider the location of many of our villas where you may be aware of environmental noise including farm animals such as cockerels, dogs, goats and donkeys. In isolated cases small mice and rodents may also be seen in the natural environment surrounding your villa. During summer months flies, ants and wasps are naturally occurring and we encourage you to follow basic food hygiene procedures including disposal of food waste including regularly placing rubbish in the bins located close to your villa. We do not accept responsibility or consider compensation for naturally occurring environmental conditions including resort and road noise. DAMAGE/SECURITY DEPOSITS A minor breakage and accidental damage charge of £10 per person will be added to all bookings (the amount covers accidental breakages up to the value of £100 per person). The amount will be shown on your confirmation invoice and is payable at the time of your balance payment. The charge is non-refundable and covers accidental damage to minor fixtures and fittings or structure of your villa. If damage exceeds the maximum applicable amount, you will be responsible for the full cost. The villa management agency will inspect the villa on the day of your departure. The inspection where possible will be conducted before you vacate the property so that any remedial action mutually agreed. However, if this is not practical due to early/late departures the inspection will be conducted on the day of departure and reimbursement made no later than 3 weeks after departure. On certain villas we also ask for a refundable security deposit which will be of varying amounts subject to the villa booked, this fee is refundable upon your return from holiday, subject to satisfactory checks. If you discover any problems or breakages on arrival please report them immediately to avoid any misunderstanding once your rental period has ended. SUPPLIER’S CONDITIONS Many of our third party suppliers have their own terms and booking conditions and you will be bound by these as they apply to your contract with us as far as the supplier is concerned. Our supplier’s conditions will also apply to your contract with us, and in the event of any conflict between the supplier’s conditions and our conditions, the supplier’s conditions will prevail, unless any term in the supplier’s conditions is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, in which case our conditions will prevail. Some of our suppliers’ conditions may limit or exclude liability on the part of the relevant supplier and, by virtue of their application to your contract with us, may also limit or exclude our liability to you, and they are often subject to international conventions. Where relevant, copies of such conditions may be available for inspection at the office of the relevant supplier ADVANCE PASSENGER INFORMATION/APIs UK and overseas governments require all passengers travelling by air to provide certain personal information known as Advance Passenger Information or API this means your passport/identity card details and in some instances, your contact and other information, are provided to the authorities before you travel. Some governments also require airlines to provide them with direct access to airline passenger bookings, which may contain other passenger data. It is important that the information provided is accurate so you pass through Immigration on arrival without delay. You must provide this information when requested to do so which may be in advance of travel. PASSPORT & VISAS Each passenger including children is required to hold their own full and valid passport for visits to all the destinations that we feature. Most non-EU countries require that passports are valid for at least six months after the departure from their country. Please visit www. fco.gov.uk/travel for the individual country‘s passport and visa requirements for British citizens with a British passport or contact us for further details. A full British passport presently takes approximately 2 to 6 weeks to obtain or renew. If you are 16 or over and haven‘t yet got a passport, you should apply for one at least 6
weeks before your holiday. The UK Passport Service has to confirm your identity before issuing your first passport and will ask you to attend an interview in order to do this. All information we provide in respect of visa or passport requirements is given in good faith and as known at the time it is provided. However, requirements may change and you must check the up to date position in good time before departure. For countries requiring visas, there should be at least one blank page in the passport to facilitate the visa stamp. Please note that some countries may require two blank pages for entry and departure visas. If you, or any member of your party, do not hold a British citizen’s passport and/or do not reside in the UK, you must check the entry requirements with the embassy of the country/ies you will be visiting. Single parents or other adults travelling alone with children should be aware that some countries require documentary evidence of parental responsibility before allowing lone parents to enter the country or, in some cases, before permitting the children to leave the country. HEALTH REQUIREMENTS You must ensure you are aware of and comply with any health requirements, recommendations and precautions such as vaccinations for every country you are or may be visiting. Requirements and advice may change and it is your responsibility to ensure you are aware of all recommended vaccinations and health precautions in good time before departure. Details are available from your GP surgery and from the National Travel Health Network and Centre www.nathnac.org. Information on health abroad is also available on www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Travelhealth. For travel to Europe, we strongly recommend that you obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) for which you can apply online at www.ehic.org.uk free of charge. For details of the cover provided by an EHIC go to www. dh.gov.uk/travellers. Please note that the EHIC is not a substitute for travel insurance and may not cover the total cost of health cover. It does not cover the cost of repatriation to the UK if required for medical reasons. You must have adequate insurance cover for all medical costs which will not be covered by the EHIC or you will be personally responsible for payment of these to the hospital/medical practitioner. Payment may be required at the time of departure from the hospital or at the time of receiving treatment. If you have a pre-existing or current medical condition of any kind or if you are pregnant, then you must get clearance to travel from your own doctor. Please also check the terms of your travel insurance policy. Pregnant ladies are not accepted by most airlines after 28 weeks of pregnancy. IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to ensure that you hold the correct, valid documents for the country/ies you are visiting and have obtained and have proof of any compulsory vaccinations. You should also carry written confirmation of any medication requirements you may have. Further, we cannot accept responsibility if you are refused passage on any airline or other transport or entry into any country due to the failure on your part to carry the correct documentation. If failure to do so results in fines, surcharges, claims, financial demands or other financial penalties, costs or expenses being imposed on or incurred by us, you will be responsible for indemnifying and reimbursing us accordingly. LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE Allowances vary according to the carrier, destination, route and the class of travel booked. You will be advised of the specific allowances and restrictions with your travel documentation. Should you require these at the time of booking, please ask your Travel Specialist. Please note: 1. Many airlines restrict the weight, size, dimensions and contents of hand luggage. For further details please check with the airline you are flying with. 2. The airline may impose a charge payable by you at the check-in or refuse to allow the luggage to be checked-in until the weight and dimensions are within the prescribed limits if your luggage is over the prescribed allowance. We will not be responsible for any such charges or be liable for the cost of any items which you are unable to check-in and are left at the airport. 3. There are restrictions on the contents of hand luggage to be taken on board an aircraft.

AIRLINE DELAYS & PASSENGER RIGHTS If your flight is cancelled or delayed, your flight ticket is downgraded or boarding is denied by your airline, depending on the circumstances, the airline may be required to pay you compensation, refund the cost of your flight and/or provide you with accommodation and/or refreshments under EC Regulation No 261/2004 - the Denied Boarding Regulations 2004. Full details of these rights are posted at EU airports and are also available from airlines/airline websites or visit www.caa.co.uk. Please note that any compensation or other payment due to you is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund from us. All sums you receive or are entitled to receive from the airline concerned by virtue of these Regulations represent the full amount of your entitlement to compensation or any other payment arising from such cancellation, delay, downgrading or denied boarding. This includes any disappointment, distress, inconvenience or effect on any other arrangements. the fact a delay may entitle you to cancel your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight. If, for any reason, we make any payment to you or a third party which the airline is responsible for in accordance with the Denied Boarding Regulations, you must, when requested, assign to us the rights you have or had to claim the payment in question from the airline. If your airline does not comply with these rules you may complain to the Civil Aviation Authority on 020 7453 6888 or by e-mail to passengercomplaints@caa.co.uk or see www.caa.co.uk – Referring Your Complaint to the CAA. Please check your travel insurance policy for compensation following airline delays. Where long flight delays result in lost holiday time, refunds are not given by suppliers for unused accommodation as rooms are held for delayed arrivals and are not re-let. Please also note that an airline carrier may, if circumstances so require, divert, postpone or delay any flight, or alter the airport of departure or arrival and may, without notice, substitute alternative carriers or aircraft. We are not always in a position at the time of booking to confirm the flight timings which will be used in connection with your flight. The flight timings shown in our brochure, on our website and/or detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. Flight timings are outside our control. They are set by airlines and are subject to various factors including air traffic control restrictions, weather conditions, potential technical problems and the ability of passengers to check in on time. The latest known flight times will be those shown on your tickets or confirmation of the flight booking, which will be despatched to you approximately two weeks before departure. You must, accordingly, check your tickets very carefully immediately upon receipt to ensure that you have the correct flight times. It is possible that the flight times may be changed even after tickets have been despatched; we will contact you as soon as possible if this happens. BANNED AIR CARRIERS In accordance with EU Regulation No 2111/2005, we are required to bring to your attention the existence of a “Community list” which contains details of air carriers who are subject to an operating ban within the EU. The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/list_en.htm We are also required to advise you of the actual carrier(s) (or, if the actual carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we will inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. If the carrier with whom you have a confirmed reservation becomes subject to an operating ban as above as a result of which we/the carrier are unable to offer you a suitable alternative the provisions of Clause 7 of our Booking Conditions “Alterations and Cancellations by the Company” will apply. NON PACKAGES Some of the holiday arrangements we sell are not “packages” in accordance with the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992. For these arrangements, the acceptance of liability set out in Clause 10(ii)a) of our Booking Conditions will not apply. Instead, we will use reasonable skill and care in the
performance of any services which we or any of our employees provide subject to and in accordance with the other terms of the Booking Conditions. For services which are provided by third parties such as hoteliers and transport companies, we will use our reasonable skill and care in selecting reputable suppliers. PRE-SEATING ON AIRCRAFT Pre-seating can be arranged on most international carriers. However, the seating available will be limited and once this limit is reached, airlines will only allocate seats at check-in and this cannot be overridden. Preassigned seats cannot be guaranteed as airlines do not undertake to provide any particular seat in the aircraft. Therefore, you agree to accept any seat that may be allocated on the flight in the class for which the ticket has been issued. Certain airlines now operate a voluntary online system to book your seats in advance, please see your travel documentation to see if this is available. Depending on your airline, you may be able to check-in online in advance. Please note: 1. Bassinettes for babies must be booked at the time of booking and are on a first come first served basis. Due to airline availability bassinettes, cannot be guaranteed. 2. If you have any special seating, dietary or other requirements as a result of any disability, reduced mobility or medical condition, please advise us at the time of booking or as soon as you are able if you are not in a position to do so when booking. We will pass such information to the airline concerned but cannot guarantee that they will be met. INTER-ISLAND & OVERSEAS INTERNAL FLIGHTS Please note that on aircraft used for flights between islands extra luggage restrictions will apply. We will try and ensure that special requirements relating to disability or mobility needs can be accommodated but this cannot be guaranteed. SAFETY STANDARDS Safety standards and rules are set by each country. These may not be equivalent to those of the UK and, in some cases, could be lower. This includes activities, public transport, taxis, theme parks and other recreational facilities. Swimming pools may have signs indicating that swimming is at your own risk. Please act responsibly, particularly with children, as the depth and design of villa pools vary. We suggest that, in all cases, you familiarise yourself with any health & safety notices particularly prior to diving or allowing any children travelling with you to swim. When properties provide cots for infants, you must check you are happy with the standard and safety prior to use. Caution should be exercised with regard to some room facilities (such as tea and coffee making machines, Jacuzzi baths, etc). Parents should ensure that the standards for childcare and the facilities of the children’s clubs meet their requirements. Further information is available on request. PUBLIC UTILITIES Public utilities and continuity of services, such as water and electricity should not be taken for granted at your destination. On tropical islands and in less developed countries, there may be interruptions to the supply. CUSTOMERS WITH ANY DISABILITY, MEDICAL CONDITION OR REDUCED MOBILITY If any member of your party has any medical condition, disability or reduced mobility which may affect your holiday or any special requirements as a result (including any which affect the booking process), please tell us before you confirm your booking so that we can assist you in considering the suitability of the arrangements and/or making the booking. In any event, you must give us full details in writing at the time of booking and whenever any change in your condition, disability or mobility occurs. You must also promptly advise us if any such condition, disability or reduced mobility which may affect your holiday develops after your booking has been confirmed. We are not a specialist disabled holiday company, but we will do our best to cater for any special requirements you may have. We will make every effort to recommend the most suitable holiday for you as we do have a specialist department who will be able to provide information to you. For further information, call us to discuss your holiday requirements. Within the EU, airlines will facilitate access to air transport for disabled persons and persons of reduced mobility and ensure they receive assistance when travelling by air in accordance with EC Regulation 1107/2006.
This also applies to passengers departing from an airport situated outside the EU to an airport situated within the EU if the air carrier is an EU Community Air Carrier. Due to the nature of some of our hotels/destinations, many may lack the simplest facilities, such as ramps for wheelchairs and door access. This may apply to shops, restaurants public transport and recreational facilities. ACCOMMODATION CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT We want you to arrive to at villa that is fully cleaned and prepared for your arrival. In order that this can be done, the maids must have uninterrupted access to all areas of the property. Therefore, your villa will be available from 4pm on the day of arrival and is to be vacated by 10am on the day of departure. When booking your own travel arrangements, please bear in mind the above information. BEACHES Please note that all beaches at the accommodation/resorts featured are open to the public unless specifically stated otherwise. Minimum clothing restrictions may operate on beaches in certain countries. We cannot guarantee beaches in every country will be manned with lifeguards or provide flags for information on currents and conditions unfavourable or favourable for safe swimming or Water sports. You must satisfy yourself that conditions are safe for swimming before doing so. BUILDING WORKS We strive to ensure that your accommodation will not be in an area of construction and that your accommodation will not be undergoing substantial refurbishment which may cause you inconvenience. We have no control over building works which are being carried out in the immediate locality of your accommodation. If it comes to our attention that building works are being carried out which will or may have a material effect on your holiday we will notify you as soon as we become or are made aware of the nature of the works and whether the works will or will not cause you undue inconvenience. AIR-CONDITIONING AND ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES Air-conditioning where stated in your villa description is provided for your convenience (in some villas an additional charge may be made – you will be notified if this is the case at the time of booking). A breakdown of the units can often occur where the units are operated for protracted periods of time and/or where doors and windows are left open. Air-conditioning is intended for use while you are present in the villa and doors and windows remain closed. In the event of a breakdown a specialist engineer is often required. These third party engineers often have a call out pattern which may take up to seven days before a visit can be arranged or essential parts are sourced. We will not pay compensation due to the failure of any air-conditioning unit or electrical appliance. We will of course use our best endeavours to repair any malfunctioning equipment SWIMMING POOLS On infrequent occasions there can be interruption to water and electricity supplies and very rarely the use of swimming pool. Our local agent and suppliers will endeavour to resolve the problem within 24 hours or on the next working day. Please contact our local representative promptly if you experience loss of service. The majority of our villas have private swimming pools which are not protected by fencing or alarms. Please note you and your party are responsible for all guests whilst staying at the property. Children should be supervised at all times when in the vicinity of the swimming pool and alcohol should be consumed responsibly to avoid accidents in and around the swimming pool, garden and villa. All villas with pools have a strict NO DIVING policy which must be adhered to by all guests. Should an accident occur in and around your villa you MUST inform our local representative immediately WI-FI AND INTERNATIONAL TV Wi-Fi and international TV are provided for your use in many villas, we cannot, however accept any responsibility for poor reception or loss of connectivity due to the inconsistency of the service provider and on occasions the remote setting of the property/ies. Some villas have ‘Pay as you go’ Wi-Fi which has a credit for your use and can be topped up as required. Our local representative will be able to offer advice on how this can be done locally. Where a property supplies an internet connection, then guests must use it within the law and rules. All civil and criminal responsibility by the use of the referred. Internet connection and web sites accessed, as well as the
use made of them, during your stay, will be exclusively your liability. NATIONAL AND SPECIAL RELIGIOUS PERIODS There may be restricted facilities e.g. restaurant/shop opening times, availability of public transport, recreational facilities etc, during national holidays and/or religious periods or festivals. During such periods, there may be restrictions on facilities and services available in your locality. CAR HIRE We only deal with reputable car hire companies and, in the high season in particular, we strongly recommend that you pre-book your hire car to guarantee availability. Hirers must normally be 23 years of age or over (minimum of 25 years for prestige cars) and hold a FULL and VALID British driving licence, which must be carried at all times. Local licences (if applicable) are obtainable from the hirer or main police stations upon presentation of a British driving licence and must be paid for locally, together with petrol and optional extra insurance. When collecting your hired car, you will be asked to sign the hire car company’s standard hire agreement. This agreement is likely to contain provisions that limit or exclude the hire car company’s liability to you in certain situations. Please read the agreement carefully and ensure that you have adequate insurance cover. In some countries compulsory collision damage waiver is required. A credit card will be required as a deposit against fuel, insurance waiver, additional child/baby seats or other costs. For infants, front airbags may not be disconnected in certain vehicles, please check with the hirer. You are advised to take out additional insurance if voluntary excess applies, such as collision damage waiver or equivalent for the country of your destination. AIRPORT TRANSFERS We will provide private vehicle transfers where possible. However, when a hotel provides transfers these may, on some occasions, be by coach or shared minibus, or by motor launch as appropriate. Please note that excess luggage will necessitate the need to supply an extra vehicle, which will incur an added charge. If you are travelling with luggage in excess of your airline allowance, please advise us so that we can make the necessary arrangements. Where helicopter transfers are available, your luggage may need to be transported by road and for return flights, your luggage may have to be collected from your accommodation early in the morning. Helicopter transfers are not generally available after dark.
