By making deposit or full payment, you agree that it is your responsibility to inquiry about a hotel's specific policy if you require it. Please request specific policy here.

We advice all our guests to ensure that you sign up for a travel insurance which covers hotel cancellation fees or cases in which there are no refunds. Such insurance is readily available as an option with most insurance companies. In case of island bookings we cannot be responsible for missed boat transfers for any reason. Last minute cancellations are not accepted and no refund in such cases. If we have to pay the hotel, you have to pay us.

If you do not wish to keep a reservation you must send us your cancellation request via the above link saying "CANCEL OR AMEND A RESERVATION" or by clicking here. We will not accept any other means of cancelling a booking, including via chat, skype, phone, fax or by sending a standard email.

Failure to follow above procedure will result in you being subject to the conditions described above, so it is imperative that you let us know as early as possible.


Minimum Stay Booking Conditions
On our website we clearly mention the individual hotel's minimum stay requirements for Holiday Periods and Peak Season Periods. If a booking is submitted that does not meet these requirements, we will process the reservation using the details submitted, but further payment will be required in order for the reservation to meet the mininum requirements and this payment will be requested after initial payment has been completed. Failure to pay the second amount will result in complete forfeiture of deposit/payment and be subject to our cancellations terms. No exceptions.


Amending your reservation
Due to the significant work in amending key elements of a reservation, such as check in and check out dates, a small amendment fee of 300 THB may be applicable if made in due time. Please note the changes in duration of stay or number of rooms fall in under cancellations and not amendments.


Fact Track Booking Option
If you choose/chose our "fast track" booking option, please be aware that it does not guarantee room availability. This option is simply a tool to increase the chance of loosing an available room due to not receiving our confirmation in time or due to late payment of deposit.

The fast track option does not charge your credit card, but the booking amount is "authorized" on your credit card, which means that the funds are blocked from usage. Upon using this option and there is no availability, we will immediately make you an alternative offer or if you so require, reverse the authorization on your card. Please note that the funds will not be immediately unblocked, however, as the amount was never actually charged you have no expenses on the charge.

Hotels
Hotels listed on our portals are chosen by taking into consideration their classification, location and price. The hotel's classification in stars mentioned in our portals is the one stated by the hotel itself and may be changed at anytime.

We have taken every reasonable precaution to ensure that the information is fair and correct at the time of publishing, and the facilities are available as described for each hotel or resort. However as we do not own or control the accommodation, we exclude liability for subsequent alterations and the withdrawal or amendment of facilities.

Please also be aware that the hotels are under renovation from time to time. Hotels take all possible steps to limit disruption to their guests. We cannot accept requests for refunds where a hotel is carrying out renovations whilst a guest is resident.


Check In/Out Time
The check in and check out time varies and depends on the hotel's own policy. In general, check in and check out time is at twelve noon (12:00 PM). However, in some regions, the hotel will only permit check-in from 15:00 or even 16:00 onward and check-out at 10:00. Hotels reserve the right to charge for periods when the room is occupied outside their normal check-in and check-out time.

You understand and agree to adhere to the hotel's own policies on the check-in and check-out time, and release www.islandofthailand.com and www.ibook247.com from any claims in relation to it.

Payment
You will require a valid credit card for your reservation. The cardholder must be one of the guests checking-in or must sign our card authorization form and fax this to us within 24 hours.

The hotel will ask for a valid credit card again on check-in. This is to cover incidental expenses like additional meals, drinks, laundry, etc. You will remain responsible for payment of all such extra charges direct to the hotel.

Please note that any accepted refunds may still have applicable fees.


No Show (Non-use of reservation)
If, for any reason you don’t utilise your reservation and fail to contact us to cancel it, we do not refund any monies pertaining to said booking. The reason for this is that as far as the hotel is concerned the room is booked and they cannot let anyone else occupy it, in case you arrive. Thus the room is held, un-occupied, until they are notified otherwise.


What is your credit card payment procedure and how safe is it?
We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt all information. All secure transactions take place on our secure server. All payments are subject to a credit card surcharge.


Unavailability of reservation
From time to time availability can change daily, even hourly and not all resorts actually hold a reservation, therefore in the event that we receive the deposit/payment too late, we reserve the right to cancel your payment/deposit and/or offer alternative accommodation. In the event, that you do not wish to accept an alternative solution we will cancel the payment in full. We strive to solve all reservation problems promptly and dilligently to the guest's satisfaction.


Failure to pay the balance of a booking
If the hotel you have booked requires full pre-payment and initially you only paid a deposit then please take note of the date of which the balance is payable. Failure to pay your balance payment on time may result in cancellation of your booking and loss of your deposit. When you login to your account you can see the due date of any balance to be paid and we strive to send reminders. Unfortunately we cannot be responsible for missed emails and it is your responsibility to pay the balance regardless of receiving a reminder payment.
