ARTICLE 4 - RESERVATION REQUEST AND RESERVATION

 

4.1. Procedure for booking a stay

 

The reservation process on the site leading to the conclusion of a seasonal rental contract between a user and Résidences Louis is as follows:

- The user can, by clicking on the links provided for this purpose on the site, make a reservation request for a given period by choosing one of the properties proposed and by indicating the start date, the end date of the rental and the number of adults and children (with the ages of the latter) present during the stay.

- The user indicates his/her contact details and agrees to provide accurate, up-to-date and complete information during the booking process and to update said information in order to keep it accurate, relevant and complete. Résidences Louis reserves the right to suspend or cancel the reservation if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, fraudulent, outdated or incomplete, or otherwise violates the general rental conditions.

- The user chooses the method of payment: online payment or bank transfer (possible if and only if more than 9 days before arrival). When booking online, the user pays part or all of the stay depending on the date of booking and the date of arrival. If the date of arrival is more than 30 days before the date of reservation, then Résidences Louis asks for a deposit of 25% of the price of the accommodation and then the balance 30 days before arrival. If the arrival date is less than 30 days before the reservation date, then the total amount is due at the time of the reservation.

- The reservation request is then transmitted to Résidences Louis. Once the first payment has been received, the user receives an email confirming that the reservation has been taken into account and containing the information relating to the reservation. Without written confirmation from Résidences Louis, the reservation cannot be considered definitive.

By making the reservation request and by the payment made, the traveller accepts the general rental conditions. The traveller and Résidences Louis are committed and the rental contract is concluded.

In case of refusal of the reservation request by Résidences Louis, the traveller is informed.

 

4.2 Rental contract

 

The rental contracts are concluded between :

- the company Sci Louis Bains

- the user making a reservation request (cf. article 4.1.) designated hereafter as "the traveller".

 

Together "the Parties" and individually "a Party".

It has been agreed between the Parties that the company Sci Louis Bains rents to the traveller the accommodation as described below under the following conditions. This reservation is made and accepted at the price, charges, and special conditions indicated on the reservation confirmation, of which these general conditions form an integral part.

 

4.2.1. Purpose of the rental contract

 

The Parties declare that the purpose of the rental is not to rent premises for use as a principal residence or for mixed professional and principal residence use. Consequently, they agree that their respective rights and obligations will be governed by the stipulations of this contract, by the modified decree of 28 December 1976 and, failing that, by the provisions of the Civil Code.
