I see how popular Windsor Hills is, and it seems to get great reviews here.
I have some questions about the up front deposits and refund policies.
There is one unit I am looking at.. it requires a $100 non-refundable deposit per week (we would be doing at least 2 weeks) and also a $250 deposit for a safe guard against breakages or damage, which is said to be released 15 days after departure if no damages are found.
Cacellation/Refund Policy is
more than 6 weeks, just the deposit is lost
4-6 weeks, half the full amount is lost (full pmt must be made by 6 weeks)
2-3 weeks, you get back %25.
less than 2 weeks you lose everything.
No early checkin... no late checkout (it would be subject to charges on your $250 deposit).
Is the the normal policy for most places. And, if so, does normal trip insurance cover this type of rental?
I've never had to cancel my reservations luckily, but I still always use trip insurance just in case. In a case of renting one of these units and all the policies involved, I'd want to know I was fully insured before paying all the deposits and costs.
TIA to anyone who could help.
