The rental prepayment is usually 20% of the rental price and is due after receiving the booking confirmation/invoice and must be received by the host within 10 days of the date of the booking confirmation/invoice. The remaining payment is normally made up to 8 weeks before the start of the rental period. Special arrangements can be made and should be confirmed in writing (by email).
