Letting conditions

Please be advised that KDR Sports and adventure travel (Pty) Ltd (www.zimbali.org) is not the Owner of the Unit and is merely facilitating the letting of this Unit at the request of the Owner of the Unit or their representative and hence is a letting agent. Hence you, as the Guest are entering into an agreement with the Owner of the property and any disputes or claims must be dealt with between you and the Owner of the Unit. Once you have received our invoice and full payment has been made, it will be deemed that you have read these Terms and conditions and agreed to them.

Zimbali Private house rentals – Things to know/ Terms and conditions

DSTV
Not all houses have Satellite television. Some houses may have a decoder but you may require your own “smart card” for it to work. Please check on this situation when you book. Unfortunately due to smart cards going missing some owners now require that you take your own smart card. If you do not have one and the house has a decoder, please let us know and we will see if we can organize one for you.

Toiletries
While the houses usually have toiletries like toilet paper, toiletries such as Shampoo, conditioners and other items of a personal nature need to be brought in. Some houses may have “Starter packs” of toiletries but if you are going to be arriving late, rather bring your own, just incase. Ballito is a 5 minute drive away.

Golf carts
If you do require a golf cart please check the house you renting comes with one. If it doesn’t, golf cart rental (depending on which supplier has availability) is between R200 and R300/ day. Golf carts are mandatory on the course and can be hired for R160/ round of 18 holes. These can only be used while playing golf.
Prices correct 17 August 2005.

Beach towels
Whilst the houses do supply blankets, linen and bath towels, you do need to bring your own beach towels. They are not always supplied.
 
Cleaning
Some of the houses are cleaned and maintained by maintenance companies and some have their own maids that look after the house. The houses, unless otherwise stated, are not cleaned on Sundays and public holidays. If you do need a cleaner in on these days please let us know and we will arrange one for you at an additional cost. Please note though, that if outside help is brought in, due to the nature of transport in the area it has proved to be very unreliable in the past. Zimbali also has very strict rules involving workers entering Zimbali, so we are unable to organise replacement cleaners at the last minute.

Repairs and problems
From time to time, as is the nature with houses, repairs need to be done. If something is broken and it hasn’t been picked up by the maintenance guys or the maid please let us know right away and we will get somebody there to sort it out for you. Please refer to your invoice or voucher for details on who to phone. We want your stay to be enjoyable and pleasant so please don’t wait until you get home before you email us about a light not working or something that was not working and has annoyed you. Let us know straight away and we will get somebody out there as soon as possible.
