This document outlines the Booking Terms & Conditions for reservations made through Private Pool Villa Bali (privatepoolvillabali.com), effective 22 May 2026. These terms establish the contractual agreement between the guest and Private Pool Villa Bali, governing all bookings for a private pool villa in Bali. A confirmed booking signifies acceptance of these conditions, with an average of 85% of guests securing their desired dates 3-6 months in advance for peak season travel.
Booking Confirmation and Deposit
Booking confirmation occurs upon receipt of a non-refundable deposit, typically 50% of the total rental cost. This deposit is required within 72 hours of provisional booking to secure the desired private pool villa in Bali. Failure to remit the deposit within this timeframe may result in the automatic release of the reservation. For bookings made less than 60 days prior to the arrival date, full payment is generally required at the time of booking to confirm the reservation.
The deposit serves to guarantee the villa’s availability for the specified period and covers initial administrative costs. For example, a villa priced at USD 2,000 for a 5-night stay would require a USD 1,000 deposit. Guests receive a booking confirmation email detailing the reservation dates, villa name, and remaining balance due.
Payment and Final Balance
The remaining balance of the total private pool villa rental cost is due 60 days prior to the scheduled arrival date. Guests are responsible for ensuring timely payment. Reminders are typically issued 7-10 days before the due date, though guests bear ultimate responsibility for adherence to payment deadlines. Payments can be made via bank transfer or credit card, with a standard 3% processing fee applied to credit card transactions.
Should the final balance not be received by the due date, Private Pool Villa Bali reserves the right to cancel the booking without refund of the initial deposit. For instance, if a guest books a villa for a stay beginning on August 1st, the full payment is expected by June 2nd. All prices are quoted in USD, and any currency conversion fees are the responsibility of the guest’s bank.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellation of a confirmed private pool villa booking must be submitted in writing. The applicable cancellation fees are determined by the notice period provided before the scheduled arrival date. Cancellations made 90 days or more prior to arrival may forfeit the initial 50% deposit, though a credit for future travel might be offered at the company’s discretion, valid for 12 months.
For cancellations received between 60 and 89 days before arrival, 75% of the total booking value is forfeited. Cancellations made less than 60 days prior to arrival, or a “no-show,” result in 100% forfeiture of the total booking value. For example, cancelling a USD 3,000 booking 45 days out means USD 3,000 is non-refundable. Guests are strongly advised to purchase comprehensive travel insurance to mitigate potential losses from unforeseen circumstances requiring cancellation.
Changes and Amendments
Requests for changes or amendments to a confirmed private pool villa booking must be made in writing and are subject to availability and the discretion of Private Pool Villa Bali. While efforts are made to accommodate reasonable requests, changes are not guaranteed. An administrative fee of USD 50 may apply for any approved alteration to a booking, such as a change in dates or the number of guests.
Date changes are generally permitted only if the new dates fall within the same pricing season and are requested more than 90 days before the original arrival date. Any approved changes may result in a recalculation of the total rental cost, with any increase paid by the guest. Decreases in booking value due to amendments typically do not result in a refund for the difference.
Force Majeure and Unforeseen Circumstances
Force Majeure refers to unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of Private Pool Villa Bali or the guest, which prevent the fulfillment of booking obligations. These include, but are not limited to, natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis), acts of God, war, terrorism, government travel restrictions, epidemics, pandemics, or significant civil unrest. In such events, Private Pool Villa Bali is not liable for any failure to perform its obligations.
Should a Force Majeure event occur, guests will typically be offered a credit for future travel, valid for 12-18 months, or the option to rebook for alternative dates, subject to availability and any potential price differences. Cash refunds are not provided under Force Majeure conditions. For instance, if travel to Bali is restricted due to a declared pandemic, a guest with a booking for a private pool villa in Bali in 2026 would receive a travel credit instead of a refund. Guests should monitor official advisories from sources like Indonesia.Travel for the latest information.
