Rental accommodations :
Our prices include accommodation (depending on capacity), water, gas, electricity, one vehicle, access to facilities, and various services and activities. Our prices do not include the tourist tax for participants over 18 (a French tax intended to help finance expenses related to tourism and the protection of natural areas for holidaymakers) or the bio-contribution for all participants regardless of age (a sum used for environmental initiatives: optimizing water, energy, and waste management; enhancing the landscape and promoting biodiversity in our natural areas; and preparing the campsite for the future). The tourist tax and bio-contribution are billed along with your accommodation and are payable on the same payment dates. They are non-modifiable and non-refundable upon arrival at the campsite. Depending on the circumstances, they must be paid at the same time as the balance of your stay. Minors unaccompanied by a responsible adult are not accepted.
2/ RESERVATION
For every reservation, an "option" is registered upon receipt of your request (subject to availability). This option is valid for a maximum of 7 days (any option not confirmed within 7 days will be automatically cancelled).
The reservation only becomes firm upon receipt of a booking confirmation issued by the campsite after receipt of the deposit of 30% of the initial price of the stay by credit card, bank transfer, cash or Holiday Vouchers (PAPER or CONNECT).
The booking fee is waived when making a reservation (except for reservations made through the VACAF scheme, for which a €20 booking fee applies). For payments made with paper holiday vouchers, a €10 booking fee applies to amounts over €100. The campsite also reserves the right to charge a €20 booking fee if you request any changes to your initial reservation before arrival and/or on-site (additional person, additional vehicle, pet, etc.). In case of cancellation, for any reason, the deposit will be retained for a future stay within one year (one year after the scheduled departure date of the cancelled stay). All reservations are non-transferable and cannot be assigned or sublet without the campsite's consent.
3/ SETTLEMENT OF THE BALANCE
You can pay the balance of your reservation by credit card, bank transfer, cash or Chèques-Vacances (PAPER and CONNECT).
The balance of your stay is due no later than one month before the start of your stay for rental accommodations and at least 14 days before the start of your stay for camping pitches. If the balance is not paid within the specified timeframe, your stay will be considered cancelled and our cancellation policy, described below, will apply.

7/ FAILURE TO ARRIVE AT THE CAMPSITE

9/ CANCELLATION
Due to the buyer :
Camping La Pibola offers optional Cancellation and Interruption Insurance when you book. Our partner Gritchen is committed to refunding all or part of your stay only to customers who have purchased the Campez Couvert insurance.
This fee is payable in full and only at the time of booking. It is in addition to the deposit and applies to those registered for the stay. Its amount is 4% of the rental price.
In case of cancellation, please notify the campsite of your withdrawal as soon as an event preventing your departure occurs, either by mail or email. If the claim is covered under the general terms and conditions (available on the website www.campez-couvert.com), notify the insurer within 48 hours and provide them with all necessary information and supporting documents.
Without cancellation insurance, no refund can be claimed from the campsite. The sums paid will be carried over to a future stay within the following year (1 year after the scheduled departure date of the cancelled stay).
Because of the camping :
If the campsite is forced to cancel its pitch and/or rental accommodation services, except in cases of force majeure, the stay will be refunded to up to the amount of the sums paid. This cancellation will not, however, give rise to the payment of damages.
10 / SECURITY DEPOSIT AND INVENTORY OF PREMISES
To guarantee that your accommodation will be returned undamaged and in perfect condition (ready to be re-let following the cleaning instructions provided in each rental unit), a security deposit will be required before you take possession of your rental. This deposit is preferably paid by bank pre-authorization or, failing that, by two checks (€200 total for rentals without bathrooms, €300 total for rentals with bathrooms, and €400 total for the CEDRE chalet for 6/8 people). Cash payments for the security deposit are not accepted.
In the absence of any damage, the security deposit held by bank pre-authorization will be cancelled and the checks will be destroyed within 7 days of departure.
Each accommodation includes an inventory checklist allowing you to complete your own check-in inspection. Any damage or missing items (breakages, cracks, marks, etc.) must be reported to us within 24 hours of your arrival. Failure to report any issues within this timeframe will result in you being held responsible for any damage or anomalies.
Upon your departure, any cleaning not carried out (or poorly carried out) will be deducted from your security deposit and charged at the end-of-stay cleaning rate (€25 for the Locaravane , €35 for rentals without bathrooms, €60 for rentals with bathrooms, and €75 for the CEDRE chalet (6/8 people). In the event of damage to the accommodation, its contents, and/or equipment within the campsite, the campsite reserves the right to retain all or part of the security deposit for repairs and/or the replacement of damaged equipment. An appointment must be scheduled with reception at least 48 hours before your departure for the check-out inspection (between 8:00 and 10:00 AM on your departure day).
11/ ADDITIONAL PERSON(S)
If, upon arrival or during the stay, the number of guests exceeds the number indicated at the time of booking, the campsite reserves the right to either refuse the additional guests or charge a surcharge according to the current rate. In all cases, the number of people may not exceed the maximum occupancy allowed in the accommodation or on the pitch. Any additional vehicle (car, trailer, motorcycle) will also be charged according to the current rate.
12/ VISITORS
All outside visitors must report to reception (during opening hours), leave their car in the outside car park and leave the campsite no later than 10:30 pm . THEY ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED FROM THE SWIMMING POOL UNDER PENALTY OF EXCLUSION.
13/ DOMESTIC ANIMALS
Dogs (except for category 1 and 2 dogs ) are permitted up to a maximum of two on camping pitches and one in rental accommodations (with a supplement). The owner agrees to keep their dog on a leash, to clean up after it, and is responsible for any damage it may cause. Under no circumstances should a dog be left alone in a rental accommodation, in a car, or tied to a tree, nor should it disturb the neighbors with its barking and/or mess. Cats are permitted only on camping pitches (maximum two animals, including both dogs and cats, with a supplement). Cats and all other animals are strictly prohibited in rental accommodations.
14/ SANITARY BUILDINGS
Access to the sanitary facilities (sinks, showers, and dishwashing sinks) is reserved exclusively for campers (with the exception of people with reduced mobility who, upon request at reception, may access the adapted sanitary facilities). Only the use of the washing machine and toilets in the large sanitary building located near the swimming pool is permitted for guests staying in accommodations.

16/ VACAF
A €20 processing fee is charged for bookings made through the VACAF scheme (AVF - Family Holiday Assistance). The assistance calculated at the time of booking is theoretical and may ultimately be less; in this case, the customer must pay the difference.
