6.3. Without prejudice of the provisions of clause ‎6.1, Casas da Quinta de Cima may make changes to an Organized Travel reserved by the Customer up to 20 days prior to the foreseen date of departure indicated in the proof of reservation, if that change reflects exclusively on the price and results of the increase in costs with transportation or fuel, duties, taxes or chargeable fees or currency Exchange fluctuations. The price will be altered in proportion to the increase verified in the taxes or chargeable fees or Exchange rate in force at the date of reservation, as applicable.

7. ACCOMODATION

7.1. The specifications of the Hotel and Accommodation are those stated in the reservation. However, since the Hotel photographs were not taken in the day the Customer made the reservations, there may be non substantial differences between the photograph and reality at the date of the use of services contracted by the Customer, which does not confer the Customer the right to any Contract modification.

7.2. The prices presented are per room and may be presented per person or based on different criteria that, in any case, will be duly indicated in the Site when the reservation is being booked. In case it is possible to make a reservation for a number of people larger than the normal capacity of the Accommodation, an extra bed might have to be added that may not be as comfortable or as high quality as the other existing beds, reducing habitable area of the Accomodation. The same will occur with children’s beds.

7.3. The food regimes and its specificities are communicated to the Customer through the Site when the reservation is booked.

7.5. The group, category and denomination of the hotel of the Accommodation are determined by applicable legislation of the host State.

7.6. In case the Customer presents him/herself with more people than those indicated in the reservation to use the Accommodation, the Hotel may refuse their entry, a situation for which Casas da Quinta de Cima cannot be held responsible.

7.7.

For that reason, the Customer has no right to any indemnity or resolution of Contract.

7.8. As a rule of thumb, the Accommodation may be used from 4 p.m. of the date of arrival and should be left cleared before 12 a.m. of the departure date (in both cases, at the local time of the Hotel). Staying in the Accommodation beyond the check-out time may lead to the payment of additional amounts, which shall be borne exclusively by the Customer.

7.9. In case the Customer does not arrive at the Hotel until 11:59 a.m. of the check-in date indicated in the proof of reservation, the Hotel can disregard the reservation and sell the Accommodation to third-parties, a situation for which Casas da Quinta de Cima cannot be held accountable.

If the Customer chooses to pay the reservation at the moment of booking, he/she should do so with a credit card of his/her own, within the list of issuing entities which Casas da Quinta de Cima collaborates with and is made available in the reservation form, being the payment accepted by Casas da Quinta de Cima within the limits authorized by the Customer’s Card Issuing Entities.

i) The cancellation is based on the fact that the number of participants in the Organized Travel is inferior to the minimum required and the Customer is informed in writing of the cancellation on the deadline set forth in the travel program;

6.3. Without prejudice of the provisions of clause ‎6.1, Casas da Quinta de Cima may make changes to an Organized Travel reserved by the Customer up to 20 days prior to the foreseen date of departure indicated in the proof of reservation, if that change reflects exclusively on the price and results of the increase in costs with transportation or fuel, duties, taxes or chargeable fees or currency Exchange fluctuations. The price will be altered in proportion to the increase verified in the taxes or chargeable fees or Exchange rate in force at the date of reservation, as applicable.

7. ACCOMODATION

7.1. The specifications of the Hotel and Accommodation are those stated in the reservation. However, since the Hotel photographs were not taken in the day the Customer made the reservations, there may be non substantial differences between the photograph and reality at the date of the use of services contracted by the Customer, which does not confer the Customer the right to any Contract modification.

7.2. The prices presented are per room and may be presented per person or based on different criteria that, in any case, will be duly indicated in the Site when the reservation is being booked. In case it is possible to make a reservation for a number of people larger than the normal capacity of the Accommodation, an extra bed might have to be added that may not be as comfortable or as high quality as the other existing beds, reducing habitable area of the Accomodation. The same will occur with children’s beds.

7.3. The food regimes and its specificities are communicated to the Customer through the Site when the reservation is booked.

7.4. In case nothing is referred in the reservation, the food regime does not include any meal.

7.5. The group, category and denomination of the hotel of the Accommodation are determined by applicable legislation of the host State.

7.6. In case the Customer presents him/herself with more people than those indicated in the reservation to use the Accommodation, the Hotel may refuse their entry, a situation for which Casas da Quinta de Cima cannot be held responsible.

7.7. If there is a situation of overbooking (that is, more reservations than available accommodation) in the Hotel of the Accommodation reserved by the Customer, he/she acknowledges and accepts that Casas da Quinta de Cima may place the Customer in another Accommodation of the same Hotel or in another Hotel of the same category (in any case, it is assured that the quality of the Accommodation made available is not inferior to the Accommodation reserved by the Customer), without additional costs to the Customer. For that reason, the Customer has no right to any indemnity or resolution of Contract.

7.8. As a rule of thumb, the Accommodation may be used from 4 p.m. of the date of arrival and should be left cleared before 12 a.m. of the departure date (in both cases, at the local time of the Hotel). Staying in the Accommodation beyond the check-out time may lead to the payment of additional amounts, which shall be borne exclusively by the Customer.

7.9. In case the Customer does not arrive at the Hotel until 11:59 a.m. of the check-in date indicated in the proof of reservation, the Hotel can disregard the reservation and sell the Accommodation to third-parties, a situation for which Casas da Quinta de Cima cannot be held accountable.
