The Guest is liable for any breakages or damage caused to the property or chattels that occurs during the Guest’s stay.

Be Our Guest By Bayleys reserves the right to inspect the property anytime during your stay.

The guest agrees that the liability is not limited to the security deposit amount if the damage costs exceed the deposit. If there is an issue with the credit card being debited, the guest agrees to immediately pay the amount owing to Be Our Guest By Bayleys in full via alternative payment methods.

Online check-in:

We require you to complete an online check-in registration prior to arrival. We require a copy of your ID & credit/debit card used so that we can check the name on your credit/debit card matches the name on your ID. This protects us against credit card fraud.

Check-in time is from 3:00 PM on the date of your arrival.

Please ensure you have read and understood your arrival details in full, to ensure you are aware of how to access the property upon your arrival. Please notify Be Our Guest immediately if there are any issues at the holiday home upon your check-in.

Should you require an early check-in this must be arranged prior to your arrival. We will endeavour to accommodate your request, but please understand this may not be possible.

Check-out:

Check-out is strictly 10:00am. Should you require a late check-out this must be arranged prior to your arrival.

A late checkout incurs a surcharge of NZD $50 + GST to cover additional housekeeping costs.

Please note a surcharge will be deducted from your account for excess rubbish or incorrect items placed in the rubbish/recycling bins.

More frequent cleaning may be scheduled upon request for an additional charge. Please note stays of 10 or more nights will incur additional property cleaning, rubbish removal and linen charges.
