Extenuating Circumstances

If you are cancelling for extenuating circumstances, consideration will be given by Surf Coast Getaway on a case-by-case basis.

If local, state, or federal government bodies mandate restrictions that prevent you from staying at your booked accommodation, this will be considered extenuating circumstances and a credit of all monies paid will be offered for a future booking (within 12 months of your disrupted stay) or a full refund.

If you shorten your stay, the unused portion of your rental is not refundable. Surf Coast Getaway retains the right to negotiate the tariff or length of stay to obtain a booking on a cancelled booking as we deem necessary.

Surf Coast Getaway recommends all guests consider taking out travel insurance should something unexpected arise to prevent you staying that is not deemed to be extenuating.
