The manager of the rented accommodation B.W.B. / DaJo Curacao N.V. hereinafter referred to as the landlord. It acts for and on behalf of the owners and will act as such. The landlord is also the contact person during the stay.

The tenant is the natural person in whose name the reservation has been made, as well as the other guests within this reservation.
Renter must be at least 23 years old. Guests under the minimum age must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

2. Payment and payment conditions
Prior to a reservation after a potential tenant has expressed his interest, the landlord will provide a quotation with an associated option. This option lasts up to 2 days, or the tenant has made a direct reservation online. When the reservation has been made, the tenant will receive a down payment invoice which is 20% of the rental amount. When this has been paid, the reservation is final.
Payment is made in 2 installments. The first installment is 20% of the rental sum, payable within 5 days of receipt of the invoice, and 6 weeks before departure the remaining amount, which is the still outstanding 80% of the total sum, must be paid. This must also be paid within the specified period. If the payments due are not made on time, the landlord is entitled to cancel the reservation and enter into a new reservation with new tenants. Refunds of the paid portion of the rental sum will not take place if the said terms are exceeded.

3. Fraud
When the renter pays by credit card, the renter declares that he or she is the account holder or an authorized user of the account. If, for whatever reason, the landlord believes that your payment may be refused by the card processor, the landlord may ask you for another payment method. At the landlord’s request, the tenant will promptly provide an alternative payment method and sufficient proof that you are the account holder or an authorized user of the account used for payment (such as a government-issued ID that matches the name on the account). The landlord may cancel your reservation or immediately remove the tenant and other guests from the accommodation if the tenant does not provide a payment method that can be validated by the landlord. If necessary, the landlord may share credit card information and other tenant information with law enforcement officials if fraud is suspected.
