THE ROLE OF POLLENTIA RENTALS
When booking a property, Pollentia Rentals acts as an intermediary between the property owner and you, the client. PR is paid a fee in connection with this service by the property owner which is included in the total price of the reservation. When you sign the rental contract you are actually signing a rental contract between yourself and the property owner, who is responsible for the accommodation.
For all of the services listed on our website PR acts as an intermediary and therefore our liability is limited.
As an intermediary, PR is not in a position to raise an invoice for the total amount paid, as the payment is divided between the property owner and other parties for which we are not entitled to raise an invoice.
PASSPORT INFORMATION
As a European legal requirement, passport details of all members of your party must be submitted to the local authorities on the day of your arrival. We will request this information after the final payment has been received and before the directions and arrival instructions are sent to you.

NB Single sex parties and groups under 25 may be subject to a higher security deposit payable on arrival at the property.
Any claims against the deposit will be made within 48 hours of departure, after this time the security deposit will be refunded to the client. PR is not responsible for fluctuations in the amount returned as there may be variations in the exchange rate and charges to from your bank relating to the return of deposit.
