FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
ONLINE CHECK IN
This is a mandatory step for all guest staying at our properties. Follow this link to complete your Online Check-in.
SECURITY BOND & PRE-AUTHORISATIONS
Your security deposit is property and booking channel dependant (bonds vary between $500 – $5000). Your bond will be processed on the day of your arrival/check-in as a pre-authorisation** on the card you nominated in your online check-in. (we do not accept bank transfers or cash for bond payments unless by special arrangement).
**Pre-authorisation is a temporary transaction where a set amount of funds from your credit card are put on hold (frozen) as per the terms and conditions of the issuing bank. The pre-authorisation will then release (usually 7-10 working days after processing), unless a bond claim is being made against it, where the pre-authorisation is authenticated and charged (in full) to the card.
WHAT TIME IS CHECK IN?
Check in can vary between 3pm and 4pm on the day of your arrival.
