Holiday villa Javea, Costa Blanca, Spain.

Casa Rafalet is a charming 5 bedroom villa with a private swimming pool. The villa has a billiard room, excellent views over both the valley and old town and is close to a golf club. The villa comfortably sleeps 9 people and has many "home comforts".

Casa Rafalet is a large (200 sq mt) villa, situated within the Rafalet district of Javea. This is a peaceful location and yet only a few minutes drive from either the main town of Javea or the golden sands of the "Arenal" beach.

The "Casa" is built in typical Spanish style on top of a small hill with 180 degree view of the valley below and of the old town. Casa Rafalet is a sou-terrain house with large window arches and wooden beams in the ceiling. It has 5 bedrooms (1 with en-suite bathroom), 2 shower rooms with toilets, a billiard room, and swimming pool. The villa has been furnished to a high standard by its current owners and is equipped with modern conveniences throughout eg/ central heating, oven & gas stove, microwave, dish washer, washing machine & tumble drier, 2 TVs with satellite arials, VCR & DVD players, CD music system, lap-top computer with dial-up connection and a telephone.

Visitors to Casa Rafalet need to be aware that the villa does have one permanent resident – Tipsy, who is the owners cat. Tipsy has become very attached to the villa and she will almost certainly insist on being stroked and fed by all visitors!! She is quite old now but is very soft and friendly. The owners will of course provide the food...

Javea is an old Spanish fishing town on the Costa Blanca with about 25,000 inhabitants, excellent beaches and beautiful natural surroundings. An increasing tourism since the 1990s has also caused the construction of modern suburbs, 2 golf courses, an assortment of international restaurants and a selection of supermarkets. The house is in one of the more exclusive suburbs, on a hill overlooking the town and the valleys beyond with orange, almond and olive orchards. About 10 minutes by car on the other side of the hill is Javea Golf Club with an adjacent supermarket. We can also reach the old town and main beaches in about 10 minutes.

Cleaning
Your apartment will have been checked and thoroughly cleaned before your arrival. Linen & towels are changed weekly for all reservations of 2 weeks or more. We do not make a routine cleaning charge and you are expected to leave your apartment in a clean and tidy condition at the end of your holiday.

Damage
While we like to think that our guests will treat our property as they would treat their own home, we reserve the right to ask for a security deposit of between 200 & 400 euros against each occupation. This amount is either paid locally on arrival or with the final balance 8 weeks before the departure date. The money is then refunded to you as soon as it is practicable to do so. If it is not possible to do this prior to your departure, then the deposit will be posted back to you at the earliest opportunity. Please advise us after your stay if there were any “accidents” so that we can ensure that everything is fine for our next guests.

Changeover
Changeover will normally be on Saturday’s unless otherwise agreed & we cannot guarantee access before 3.00pm on the day of your arrival – although we will try to accommodate your flights! It will probably be necessary for you to vacate your apartment by 10.00am on the day of your departure, we will advise you if this is not necessary.

Booking
Upon receipt of a booking application, we will confirm availability and costs, including the deposit required. We will then make a provisional booking. Unless otherwise agreed, we can only promise to keep a provisional booking available for 7 days pending receipt of your deposit. If the deposit has not been received after 7 days no guarantee can be made that the desired dates will remain available.

Payment
A 25% deposit is requested within 7 days of a provisional booking being made. At this point the reservation will become assured. The outstanding balance is payable no later than 8 weeks prior to the departure date of your holiday. Should your reservation be made with less than 8 weeks remaining to the departure date, then the full cost of the apartment will fall due for payment within 7 days of the provisional booking being made.

Cancellation
All cancellations should be made in writing no later than 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the rental period. Cancellation charges are as follows:

26 weeks or more to departure – Deposit refunded in full 8 weeks to 26 weeks to departure – Deposit forfeited
4 weeks to 8 weeks to departure – 50% of total cost will be charged
Less than 4 weeks to departure – 80% of total cost will be charged
Your payments will be refunded to you in full in the unlikely event of our cancellation of your holiday.

Confirmation
You will receive a receipt and booking confirmation advice as soon as your 25% deposit has been received. This confirmation letter will also contain details of the outstanding balance and the date by which the outstanding balance is due. Following receipt of your final balance, you will receive a further communication, confirming the receipt of your final balance and detailing the key collection point, directions to the apartment and emergency contact numbers.
