Rental conditions – Furnished tourist accommodation
The purpose of these rental conditions is to define the terms and conditions under which the lessor makes furnished tourist accommodation available for a short stay, as well as the respective rights and obligations of the parties.
The rental offered is a short-term furnished rental for exclusively tourist use, as defined by the Tourism Code. It is granted on a temporary basis and cannot, under any circumstances, be considered as a rental for use as a primary or secondary residence, nor does it confer on the tenant any right to remain on the premises.
These conditions constitute the contract binding the lessor and the lessee.
They can be viewed on the lessor's website and are expressly accepted by the lessee at the time of booking.
Acceptance of a quote, and where applicable payment for the stay, constitutes full, complete and unreserved acceptance of these rental conditions, which are then enforceable against the tenant, for himself and for all occupants of the accommodation.
The tenant acknowledges having read these conditions before any booking, having the legal capacity to contract, and undertakes to respect them scrupulously for the entire duration of the stay.
