Number of Guests: Please be aware that reception will require the exact number of guests staying in a studio or apartment at Club Tropical Resort to be confirmed on check-in. This will ensure we have the correct number of guests in house should we need to evacuate the resort in an emergency. All guests signing registration cards on check-in must be 18 years or above. 

Damage to Apartment/Breakages: The guest who registers at check-in/arrival will be held accountable for any damage to the apartment and contents during the stay dates. The registered guest will be liable for damages caused (including those by third parties visiting the apartment) which will result in forfeiting any deposits, pre-payment, cash security deposit and may be subject to additional charges. We reserve the right to process any charges in addition to accommodation to the presented credit card supplied at check-in/arrival.

Apartment Allocation: Apartments reserved in each reservation are guaranteed within the category reserved, specific apartment numbers and floor allocations and outlooks are subject to availability upon check-in and cannot be guaranteed. Higher and/or upgraded apartment types need to be reserved at time of reservation to be guaranteed. If for any reason the studio or apartment type reserved is no longer available at time of check-in/arrival, Club Tropical Resort will provide a substituted studio or apartment of equal or greater value and standard at the same rate confirmed. In extreme cases we may have to provide a substituted studio or apartment at a lower standard or value in which case the nightly rate will be adjusted to reflect this. In the unlikely case of Club Tropical Resort having to relocate guests to a nearby apartment or hotel of similar standard we will offer transportation to the alternate accommodation and cover the cost of this arranged accommodation or alternatively offer a full refund to allow the guest to choose alternate accommodation of their choice. Please note that there is a limited availability of guest rooms with twin bedding. Interconnecting rooms are not available at Club Tropical Resort.

Early Departures: On check in you will be asked to confirm your departure date. Should you then vacate your apartment and not fulfil your nights as expected no refunds will be given for any unused nights, as we are unable to resell rooms with this short notice.

Cash Policy: The minimum cash security deposit required (in additional to the full accommodation charge) is $200.
