The Company organizes as well, reserve and pay the additional activities on behalf of the customer, in functions of the stay reserved.

Use of the accommodation

The participants share the house-loft. The house-loft is selected according to the number of participants of same age bracket; each house can accommodate people of different age bracket from a holiday to another and each house can accommodate people of different age bracket than the others; it is possible to meet people from the other houses-lofts. Celivacances attributes the bedrooms; the availability of private bedrooms varies according to the number of places that are available 7 days before the beginning of the stay and /or for payment of a 35 euros extra/ night. Celivacances has the right to refuse the guests at their arrival and during the stay in case of no conformity with what is specified in the booking contract (single, age, man/woman, carpool, etc...) and/or any disturbing behaviour for the other holiday-makers,(disturbing the other participants and/or the staff, damages, intolerance, agressivity, etc...). Celivacances in that case has the right to cancel a participant's hiring contract without any notice, indemnity or repayment. Celivacances provides for free a kitty for possible common buyings. Hygiene products and cleaning materials (washing liquid, sponges, dishwasher product, toilet paper, soaps, kitchen clothes,) are provided for free by Celivacances in a sufficient quantity for the stay; any request for more products will be invoiced to the requesters. In case of any damages, the client will be responsible and will be forced at the end of the holiday to repay at the unused price. In Celivacances, as a friendly and original concept, daily cleaning is done by the roommates and, as mentioned before, cleaning products are provided by Celivacances. The day they leave, they must let the place clean and tidy. Celivacances does its best to have an equal number of men and women participants at every stay but does not guarantee any result. Celivacances cannot be responsible for any disparity between men and women and consequently for the client's non- satisfaction for such reason. Age brackets are also concerned: Celivacances advices its clients according to their desire and the age of the roommates. Celivacances cannot be responsible for any age or sex disparity. Third parties cannot be accommodated without Celivacances' agreement. In Celivacances' original concept, the accommodation includes furniture but bed linen (90x190 or 140x190) and bathroom linen are not provided; in any case if the client forgets to bring them, Celivacances suggests you to hire a complete bed kit for 20 euros and 5 euros for a complete bathroom kit. Sleeping on the drawsheets is strictly forbidden.

Pets

In order to respect the other participants (allergies, nuisances, etc...) pets are strictly forbidden in the houses. Any pet's presence, despite the manager's disagreement, will immediately lead to a contract breach without repayment or compensation. In order not to penalize pets' owners, Celivacances can provide you a dog hotel's address and phone number. This dog hotel is totally independent and located at a few kilometers from Celivacances. Celivacances cannot be responsible for this kind of custody.

Exceptional cases

The number of participants' insufficiency that jeopardizes Celivacances'aim ( dating new people) can lead Celivacances to the cancellation of the stay, only in a seven day minimum warning delay, before the beginning of the stay. Celivacances will then suggest different substitution solutions, according to tariffs into effect, or total repayment in a period of thirty days. Celivacances cannot be responsible for any participant's cancellation before the warning period, leading to an inferior number of participants expected, preventing the cancellation of the stay. No compensation will be given. Any stay cut short, any service provided which is not used by the client cannot lead to repayment. Celivacances does not assume in any case the responsibility for injuiries indirectly undergone by the client as a moral injury linked to the client's non statisfaction. Celivacances cannot be responsible when the contract's non execution or bad execution is imputable to the client, or to the unpredictable and insuperable fact of a stranger third party to provide the services mentioned in the contract, or in case of absolute necessity. Explicitly, are considered cases of absolute necessity or fortuitous, in addition to the ones usually considered as such by the French courts' jurisprudence, total and partial strikes, in or out the company, bad weather, public or supplying transports' freezing for any kind of reason, earthquake, storm, inundation, water damages, governmental or legal restrictions, legal or regular modification of trade terms. Celivacances cannot be responsible for any case of damaging, thief, luggage lost, personal effects, buyings and other goods owned by the client.
