Reservation, Payments, Cancellation Policy

Please contact us for a detailed quote!

Reservation requires a non-refundable deposit.

We will block out the dates on all the websites on which MONTE PLACIDO advertises, once you make you reservation deposit. You can rest assured when you begin your retreat advertising and promotion that your dates are secure. Best to plan ahead at least seven months in advance of your retreat date so you can begin advertising. You need plenty of lead time to get the word out and generate interest in your event. We anticipate by the time you make your reservation you will have a good idea of the number of homes you need to reserve. Be careful not to over estimate. Have your own cancellation policy in place for your clients and do not count people in unless they have made a payment.

Payment Schedule for Lodging.

Payments can be made by transfer to our U.S. or Dominican Bank Account. If you would like to use Paypal to pay we will add the 4% Paypal fee. WE DO NOT TAKE CHECKS OR CREDIT CARDS.

Reservation Deposit $500 per home is due:
At least 120 days before your arrival. If you cancel the deposit is not refundable. It will be returned to you at the end of the retreat minus any deductions for damages.

Your 1st Payment of 25% is due:
90 days before the event.
At this time, you should have collected reservation deposits from participants and have a pretty good idea of how many are actually coming. Now is the time to make any changes in the Villas you would like to rent. There is no penalty to change 90 days or more in advance. We can apply your $500 non refundable deposit to another home.

Your 2nd Payment of 50% is due:
60 days before the event.
At this time you may cancel ONE home in your reservation without penalty. We will apply your $500 dollar non refundable deposit to another home. If you need to cancel more than one home see our cancellation policy.

Your last payment of 25% must be received in our account ten days before arrival.

A cancellation applies to the entire event or,
to a cancellation of homes within your reservation.

Upon cancellation the security deposit of $500 dollars per home is not refunded.

1st Cancellation deadline. 50% of you first deposit (which was 25% of total) will be returned.
Up to 60 days before arrival.

2nd Cancellation deadline. 50% of your first and second deposit (which was 75% of total) will be returned.
59-31 days before arrival.

If you cancel 30 days or less before arrival there is NO REFUND of the payments.

At less than a month before arrival there is little chance we will be able to rent the homes you reserved. We reserve the right not to refund due to political unrest, hurricane or bad weather, or travel alerts due to illness in the Dominican Republic. We strongly suggest your participants take travel insurance. GOOD NEWS! If "force majeure" is applicable you may use your deposits as a credit towards a future event to be scheduled within one year of the cancellation date. The reservation deposit is not returned.
