VTR always does everything it can to meet the guests upon arrival at the property. In the event that the property owner cannot be found or if the guest fails to arrive within the time period stipulated and has not communicated the delay to VTR, the owner, or his/her representative, VTR declines all responsibility.

6- UPON ARRIVAL
Upon arrival to the property, the client must show the Booking confirmation and passport or identity card to the owner or his/her representative to enable them to proceed with the necessary registration required by Italian law.

Such amount will be refunded at the end of the holiday, less any deduction for any damage caused to the property, or for any additional cost not included in the rental price. THE OWNER OR HIS/HER REPRESENTATIVE MAY REFUSE ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY IF THE DEPOSIT IS NOT MADE.
Should the client decide to leave the property prematurely, the owner or his/her representative is authorized to refund the security deposit (less any eventual deduction for damages) to the guest by post, only after having checked the inventory and the property.

Any exceptions are stated in the property description. Any substitution during the rental period is forbidden, if not previously agreed upon.

9- ORDER – CLEANING – MAINTENANCE – HEATING
The properties will be handed over clean and tidy and in good working order. For some properties, and when stated, the guest is obliged to pay a cleaning cost to the owner or his/her representative. The amount due for the cleaning is shown on the price list of the property. This amount does not, however, include the cleaning of the kitchen corner/the kitchen/the kitchenette with regard to dirty dishes, pots and pans, counter-top, etc., nor the removal of rubbish, which are the guest’s responsibility. If this has not been done, the owner or his/her representative may charge additional expenses, in addition to the regular cleaning cost.
Given the situation regarding energy supply and the current laws in Italy, the use of heating (when it can be switched on and off, temperature, etc.) is controlled by regulations that vary from region to region. For example, heating may be turned on from November to April. Costs for linens in some properties have to be paid to the owner according with the price written in the property description.

10- EXTERNAL MAINTENANCE
The owner or his/her representative, if necessary, may access the external areas of the property (garden, swimming pool, etc.) for essential maintenance purposes.

11- RESPONSIBILITY
VTR has visited and checked each property. The descriptions appearing in our property information are accurate and have been done in good faith. However, VTR declines all responsibility for any modifications made by the owners without our knowledge. VTR is not responsible for any physical injuries caused to the guests and/or their visitors during their stay at the property. It is, therefore, highly recommended that the guests and visitors purchase comprehensive travel insurance prior to their trip.
In the event of any problems, the guests must do their best to solve or minimize the problem in order to avoid hazardous, costly, and/or negative consequences that could result. If this is impossible for the guest, he/she must immediately get in touch with VTR by telephone or by email (tel. +39 3392815129 or [email protected]) and then confirm the complaints in writing within 24 hours.
The guest is obliged to give VTR the necessary time to resolve the problem. Any person who leaves the property prematurely without any explicit authorization by VTR and without having sent notice in writing as mentioned above, will forfeit any right to an eventual refund of the rental cost. No complaint presented upon the return of the holiday will be taken into consideration, nor will give rise to any indemnity. No request for indemnity presented on the day of departure or thereafter will be taken into consideration. If for any reason beyond its control, including force major, VTR is unable to provide to the client the property he/she has booked, VTR reserves the right to transfer him/her, upon agreement, to a similar property. If the price of the substituted property is less, the difference will be reimbursed to the client but if the price of the substituted property is higher, the difference will be charged to the guest. If, however, no agreement can be reached, both contractual parties are authorized to cancel the contract. VTR will refund to the guest only the rental price he/she paid. Any other kind of refund is excluded.

12- PROPERTIES
It is understood that the properties VTR is offering are private homes, and not always official tourist structures, such as hotels, residences, etc. Being such, the properties do not have standards or categories recognized internationally. Rather they reflect, in their architecture and furnishings, the local traditions and personal taste of the owner. This is precisely the kind of holiday that VTR is offering: to enter right into the culture of the area, living for a few weeks in the same surroundings as someone from the area. In order to experience this in the right spirit, it is important that you accept it, and know how to appreciate any differences in the properties VTR is offering, in comparison with those properties where you normally live. For its part, VTR has been careful to choose such properties using a minimum and maximum quality range, so that any citizen of Europe, and indeed of the world, can find satisfaction. VTR cannot exclude, however, the possibility that these differences may result in minor inconveniences that are connected to the particular characteristics of the architecture and of the traditions of the area. These possible inconveniences cannot be accepted as complaints.

13- DISCLAIMER
VTR does not accept any liability for any loss, damage, or additional expenses incurred by the guests or any member of the guests’ party, regardless of the cause. VTR does not accept liability for any injury, death, loss, inconvenience or damage, alteration, delay or cancellation of the booking as a result of war, threat of war, riot or civil strife, terrorist activity (threatened or actual), natural disaster, fire, sickness, weather conditions, action at an airport or port by any government or public authority, technical problems relating to transport and airport regulations caused by technical, mechanical or electrical breakdowns or with the guests’ accommodation or other circumstances as amounting to ‘force majeure’ or Acts of God or other similar events beyond VTR’s control.

14- JURISDICTION
In the event of controversy arising from the booking and the renting, only the Courts of Law of Sorrento and the provisions of Italian Civil Law can deal with the matter and only Italian law applies. Making the booking implies that VTR’s General Conditions have been understood and have thereby been accepted without reserve and without exception. If any of the conditions of this contract have become invalid or were invalid or if in this contract there should be a gap, the other conditions cannot be contested.

15- OTHER INFORMATION
If applicable, the cleaning, heating (including firewood), and/or electricity costs, or others expenses in some properties, are to be paid directly to the property owner at arrival or prior to departure. The amount for these occurrence and more details are always indicated for each property in the rental rules.

16- VERY IMPORTANT!
From 01.07.2011 many Italian towns have introduced a tax for non-residents who stay in their area. The amount of the tax varies from 1 to 5 Euros per person, per night, depending on the category of the property.
Since this tax is levied on the renters, you may be asked to pay this tax at the end of your stay.

According to the local City Council resolutions, from April the 1st to October the 31st of each year the tourism tax is applied to non-residents overnight staying, for a maximum of 7 consecutive nights. The tourism tax rate in non-hotel accommodations (such as B&B or Holiday Homes) is € 4,00 in Sorrento city and € 4,00 in Sant’Agnello, per person per night and it is not applied to children up to 18 years old. The collected funds will help the City improve the quality of the tourist services and finance works aimed at maintaining, using and salvaging the city’s cultural.
