Prepayment
A. NON-REFUNDABLE RATES
Full prepayment is required to confirm reservation. Reservation’s total cost will be charged the day of the reservation.
B. FLEXIBLE RATES
For all other reservations (flexible reservations) the hotel will pre-authorise your credit card. Pre-authorisation is just a validity check by your bank that temporarily blocks on your credit card an amount equivalent to the cost of the first night. The amount will be unblocked after a certain time period (about 15 business days). Pre-authorisation is not an actual charge, the full amount will be available to you again, by your bank. Your credit card will only be charged if you have requested a Non-refundable room or if the cancellation policy has not been followed.
Arrival Transfer
Free arrival transfer from airport/port is provided between 08:00 and 23:00 (minimum 2 nights stay is required, maximum car capacity: 8 persons). Guests are kindly requested to inform the property at least 21 days in advance if they wish to make use of this service. Hotel reserves the right to reject last minute arrival transfer requests. Contact details can be found on the booking confirmation. Kindly note that departure transfer is upon extra charge.
IMPORTANT: You have to book your free Arrival Transfer appointment at least 21 days before arrival:
1) Please send us your exact arrival details (Airline / Ferry Company, Flight number / Ferry Name, exact Arrival Time) in order to book your free pick-up arrival transfer service from the airport/port.
2) Smaragdi Hotel reserves the right to reject* to provide arrival transfer (no refund) if your arrival details are received less than 21 days before arrival.
*If you send us the arrival details later than 21 days before arrival, then you will have to take a taxi on your expense; if there is not last moment availability in transfers’ appointments (taxi costs about 25-30 Euros for 2 persons).
Arrival Time
Please inform Smaragdi Hotel in advance of your expected arrival time for check-in. Please contact the property directly with the contact details provided in your confirmation.
Pre-authorisation
For all Flexible Reservations, your credit card will be checked (pre-authorised for 1 night’s cost) to ensure that it is valid and/or that sufficient funds are available. After the check, the full amount will be available to you again, by your bank, after a certain time period (about 15 business days). Your credit card will only be charged if you have requested a Non-refundable (pre-paid) room or if the cancellation policy, found under ‘Hotel Policies’ and room ‘conditions’ has not been followed.
Pre-authorisations are common but are often confused with actual charges. While in-store purchases are immediately charged and deducted from your available balance, pre-authorisations are temporary holds. The length of the hold will vary, and your credit card company (bank) can advise how they handle this. Don’t worry, if your card is pre-authorised, both the hotel and your credit card company (bank) is there to help. They may also be able to assist you with removing these holds sooner.
