Partial Week Rentals

Some homes allow partial week rentals with a 3-night minimum, during our Off, Spring, and Fall seasons. These short week vacations can only be booked within 30 days of your desired arrival date. Holiday weeks including Easter, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's can only be booked 2 weeks prior to your desired arrival date. 

To calculate the cost of your partial week rental, simply divide the appropriate season rental rate by five to get your nightly rate. Add the appropriate tax (see taxes above), a $200 (plus tax) dog fee (if the home allows dogs and you are bringing a dog) and the optional Travel Insurance coverage, which costs 7% of the total of all rent and other fees. *Minimum nightly rate of $225, minimum of 3 nights.

Cancellations

To cancel a confirmed reservation, please call us as soon as you know you will be unable to vacation to give us as much time as possible to re-rent your home. We will need written notification of cancellation signed by the leaseholder that can be sent via mail, fax or e-mail. The rental home must re-rent for the original rental amount in order to receive a full refund on rent paid (less the Travel Insurance if purchased). If the home is re-rented for a reduced rental rate the difference will be taken from the deposit paid. If your cancellation is successfully re-rented and confirmed, you will be refunded the rent and taxes, less a $150.00 cancellation fee. If you purchased the optional Travel Insurance, that insurance premium will not be refunded. If your home does not successfully re-rent you will forfeit all monies paid to Brindley Beach Vacations.
