Supplier Rules and Restrictions:
The information displayed on this Website concerning specific travel products and services is provided to us by the relevant members (Member Properties) of the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu. This includes, but it not limited to, information about prices, rules and availability and the description of member lodges and their amenities. The Coastal Lodge Kekerengu are not responsible for such information and we rely on the accuracy of the information supplied by the relevant member properties.  If we become aware that the information provided is incorrect in any way, we reserve the right to correct any information (including, but not limited to, pricing information) and amend your booking (in consultation with you) to ensure that it reflects the correct price or otherwise complies with the correct information. Additional charges may be payable by you if you wish to proceed with the affected booking. Such charges will be advised to you at the time of consultation. Additional terms and conditions imposed by member properties may also apply to your booking and purchase of travel-related products and services, and we will advise you of these additional terms and conditions where these are provided to us. Please read such additional terms and conditions carefully. You agree to abide by the terms and conditions imposed by any member property with whom you elect to deal, including, but not limited to, terms and conditions relating to the payment of all amounts when due, and compliance with the relevant property’s rules and restrictions regarding availability and use of products or services. We reserve the right to cancel your booking if full payment is not received in a timely fashion. Some member properties offer certain services and/or activities may require you to sign their liability waiver prior to participating in the service and/or activity they offer. You understand that any violation of any such rules and restrictions may result in cancellation of your booking(s), in your being denied access to the applicable travel services and/or activities, in your forfeiting any monies paid for such booking(s), and/or in our debiting your account for any costs we incur as a result of such violation. The Coastal Lodge Kekerengu do not operate or control the travel-related products and services displayed on the Website.
Accommodations:
Some of the listed accommodation providers may require you to present a credit card or cash deposit upon check-in to cover any additional expenses that may be incurred during your stay. You are responsible for the payment of any additional expenses and any deposit taken or amounts charged to your credit card by the relevant accommodation provider are unrelated to any payment made through the Website for your lodge booking. Note: In the event that you book a reservation for accommodations (with the exception of prepaid hotel accommodation as set out below), you acknowledge and agree that all charges, taxes and other costs relating to your booking are payable by you to the accommodation provider at the time requested by the accommodation provider (usually upon check-in or check-out from the accommodation). Coastal Lodge Kekerengu is not liable for any costs incurred due to relocation.
Pay Online Now (Prepaid Reservations):
Pay Online Now is a prepaid hotel reservation. In the event that you book a prepaid hotel reservation, you acknowledge that the online booking system for the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu relies on the room rates supplied by the Coastal Lodges via their Property Management System (PMS) which determines reservations available for Pay Online Now bookings. For prepaid hotel reservations, Payment Express, will be the facilitator of your room reservation and also the merchant of record for your Pay Online Now booking. You authorize the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies to facilitate reservations for the total reservation price, which includes the room rate displayed on the Website, plus any tax recovery charges. You agree that your credit card will be charged by Payment Express of behalf of the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu for the total reservation price. Upon submitting your reservation request you authorize the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu to facilitate hotel reservations on your behalf, including making payment arrangements with hotel suppliers. You acknowledge that except as provided below with respect to tax obligations on the amounts we retain for our services, the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies do not collect taxes for remittance to applicable taxing authorities. The tax recovery charges on prepaid hotel transactions are a recovery of the estimated taxes (NZ GST – Goods and Services Tax) that the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies pay to the hotel supplier for taxes due on the hotel’s rental rate for the room. The hotel suppliers invoice the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies for certain charges, including tax amounts. The hotel suppliers are responsible for remitting applicable taxes to the applicable taxing jurisdictions. You may cancel or change your prepaid hotel reservation, but you will be charged the cancellation or change fee indicated in the rules and restrictions for the lodge reservation (which vary by lodge). If you do not cancel or change your reservation before the cancellation policy period applicable to the hotel you reserved, the full cost of your stay will be non-refundable. In the event you do not show for the first night of the reservation and plan to check-in for subsequent nights in your reservation, you must confirm the reservation changes with the relevant lodge no later than the date of the first night of the reservation to prevent cancellation of your reservation. You agree to pay any cancellation or change fees that you incur. Some lodges do not permit changes to or cancellations of reservations after they are made, as indicated in the rules and restrictions for the reservation. You agree to make payment at the time of booking via a debit to your nominated credit or debit card. The amount charged will be the amount shown on our booking page prior to you clicking the Pay Online Now button on that page. Upon submitting your booking request, you authorize Payment Express on behalf of the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu to facilitate the relevant hotel booking, including making payment arrangements with the relevant hotel supplier.
Room Limit:
You may not book reservations for more than 8 rooms online for the same hotel/stay dates. If we determine that you have booked reservations for more than 8 rooms in total in separate reservations, we may cancel your reservations, and charge you a cancellation fee, if applicable. If you paid a non-refundable deposit, your deposit will be forfeited. If you wish to book reservations for 9 or more rooms, you must contact Coastal Lodge Kekerengu by phone or email. Your request will be researched and you will be contacted to complete your reservation. You may be asked to sign a written contract and/or pay a non-refundable deposit.
Special Deals:
From time to time, special deals or vouchers may be displayed on this Website. Such special deals and vouchers are available for a limited time only. You must check with us as to whether a special displayed on this Website is still available. Additional terms and conditions may apply to special deals or the use of vouchers. You must check this Website or the Coastal Lodge provider of the special deal to determine whether any particular terms and conditions apply.
Booking, Cancellation and Amendment Charges:
If you want to change any details of your itinerary booked through the Website (such as changing to a different hotel or changing your dates), we will do our best to help but cannot guarantee that changes will be permitted by the Coastal Lodge. Requests for a refund of monies paid for any travel products or services booked through the Website or the Service Centre will be governed by the terms and conditions of the relevant supplier, and Coastal Lodge Kekerengu is not responsible for, and does not have any control over, such terms and conditions. In particular, you are advised that many lodges rates for specific dates are non-refundable and you must check the terms and conditions applicable to the relevant member property before proceeding with the booking. We do not charge an amendment fee for changes made by you on any bookings   The price of your new arrangements will be based on the prices that apply on the day you ask us to make the change. These prices may not be the same as when you made the reservation.
Payments and Fees:
Many bank and credit/debit card companies charge their account holders a transaction fee when the card issuer and the “merchant location” (as defined by the card brand (e.g. Visa, MasterCard, American Express)) are in different countries. The currency exchange rate, if applicable, and any transaction fee are determined solely by the bank or other agency processing the transaction. These fees may be applied by the card issuer as a charge to the cardholders account. This means the amount listed on your credit or debit card statement may be a different figure than the figure shown on the billing summary page for a booking made on the Website. If you have any questions about these fees or any exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your bank.
Currency Converter:
Because in certain instances we receive the price from our suppliers in a foreign currency, the price displayed in search results may vary by a nominal amount from the price displayed at checkout due to the effect of foreign currency conversion. This amount will not exceed 10 New Zealand cents. The actual amount charged to your credit or debit card is the amount displayed at checkout. If a currency convertor is available on the Website, the following terms and conditions apply: Currency rates are based on various publicly available sources and should be used as guidelines only. Rates are not verified as accurate, and actual rates may vary. Currency quotes are not updated every day. Check the date on the currency converter feature for the day that currency was last updated. The information supplied by this application is believed to be accurate, but the Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies and/or our respective suppliers do not warrant or guarantee such accuracy. When using this information for any financial purpose, we advise you to consult a qualified professional to verify the accuracy of the currency rates. We do not authorise the use of this information for any purpose other than your personal use and you are expressly prohibited from the resale, redistribution, and use of this information for commercial purposes.
Frequent Flyers/Traveller Program:
If you are a member of an airline’s or hotel’s frequent travel or other reward or benefit scheme, please ensure that you have entered your correct program number in the special section featured in the booking engine at the time of your booking. Neither Coastal Lodge Kekerengu, Inc. nor any of the other Coastal Lodge Kekerengu Companies accept any responsibility if the relevant airline/hotel does not accept or does not register your booking for their program and you cannot earn points/miles.

As there may be delays at the airport, you are advised to arrive at the airport within a reasonable period of time before your flight. We are not responsible for any delays you may experience. Passports are required for all travellers entering New Zealand, and for international travel generally. Many countries require that foreign nationals entering hold a passport that is valid for a minimum period after you enter that country, typically 6 months. It is the responsibility of the traveller to obtain information and advice on the visa requirements for New Zealand well in advance of travel. Requirements may change and you should check for up to date information before booking and departure. Passport and visa regulations can change and it is your responsibility to ensure that you possess the relevant travel documents before you travel. It can often take some time to obtain a passport and/or visa, so you are advised to apply in plenty of time. We accept no responsibility in any regard in relation thereto including, without limitation, for customers who do not possess the correct travel documents.
