All prices are in EURO unless otherwise stated. Prices include applicable VAT. All prices are frequently monitored and prices for unsold deals can be increased or decreased at any given time. We can also correct pricing errors on unsold deals at any time. We will confirm the price of your reservation when you make your reservation. As changes and errors may occur, you should verify the price and all other details of the arrangements chosen at the time of booking. The price of accommodation applies to the entire property and does not apply per person unless there are additional personal costs.

3. Price Ranges

The calculated price range depends on the length of your stay. If your stay is shortened and your stay is in a different price range, the difference between the two rates from the beginning of your stay must be paid.

If we do not receive full payment during this period, the reservation may be canceled, and the initial payment will be confiscated.
