Even the best projects can be turned upside down. But we have plenty to help you with the unexpected. This is what we call the Confidence Booking Guarantee. When you book and pay on our site, you are automatically eligible for the Safe Booking Guarantee. So you know that from the moment you book and until the end of your trip, we’re here to help you have a good stay.
- Advantages
Our dedicated, live Customer Service is available 24/7 to answer your questions and provide you with the following: - Convenient emergency assistance if you arrive at the property but cannot enter and the owner does not respond
- Payment protection in the event of fraud or if the landlord improperly withholds your security deposit
- Help in finding a comparable property if the owner unexpectedly cancels your reservation up to 30 days before your stay
- Help with re-booking if the property description was wrong in the ad when booking (e.g. missing a bed / bedroom), if the property needs major maintenance or repair and you cannot stay, or if we consider it dangerous.
