Hello 👋
Just a post to say I’m still here. Still in business and still taking bookings!
Yes, I have been a bit MIA! I’ve been taking a small step back to re evaluate some things and see what the future of my business holds. You will start seeing some slight changes to the business and how I operate, starting with Christmas! So let’s get into it!
Yes, I am officially taking Christmas bookings! I know some of you have been very eagerly waiting for me to open them 😂
- I’ve been trying my best to hold off a bit longer for January bookings, but that’s looking to not be possible.. so January bookings are also welcome!
As most of you would already be aware, I have always had an extremely lenient policy, by not requiring deposits and not having a cancellation fee. Unfortunately this just doesn’t work around the busy period in December/ January. Bookings from the 16th of December- January I will now be requiring a non refundable deposit of one day. This means that money will be deducted from your total bill at the end, unless cancelling.
Depending on how the year goes, this may have to be implemented on all bookings from now on.
I understand the majority of people aren’t 100% sure on what day they will be leaving/ returning, which I understand. This way once the deposit has been paid I can pencil you in and then 2 weeks before your start date commences you will need to confirm the exact dates and I can lock them in.
I understand sometimes plans change and dates need to be tweaked, but please be mindful that this does effect my booking process and sometimes prevents other people from booking in days, or ending up being double booked. Please also take into account that sometimes last minute changes to dates may not be available.
This is the first time in 7 years since starting that I will be implementing a small service fee of $10 onto all Christmas Day bookings. (This will be the same for Easter Sunday)
I haven’t raised my prices since starting in 2017 despite increased business expenses, I would still like to try my best to keep it this way.
Don’t worry, anyone booking for the Christmas period and January will be informed of these changes as well as receiving a digital copy.
Please do not hesitate to message me with any questions or to make a booking.
I will also be making another post similar to this one to pin to the top of my page for everyone to see.
