Lucha Vacation Rentals – Guest booking Agreement Address: Caya Harmonia 4-A, Oranjestad, Aruba Website: www.luchaaruba.com 1. Introduction This Guest Agreement (“Agreement”) is made between you,  (“Guest,” “you,” or “your”), and LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA (“LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), acting either on its own behalf or, where applicable, on behalf of the property owner. This Agreement outlines the responsibilities, obligations, and conduct expected from you, your travel companions, guests, visitors, or any other individuals associated with your reservation during your stay at any accommodation managed, operated, or offered by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA (the “Property” or “Accommodation”). By accessing our website, making a reservation, or staying at one of our properties, you acknowledge and agree to comply with this Agreement, including our Site Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, which are incorporated herein by reference. Guests using concierge or additional hospitality services also agree to follow all applicable Concierge Service Policies. You further understand and acknowledge that this Agreement includes both LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA’s general House Rules, applicable to all accommodations, as well as any specific rules or instructions relating to the particular property reserved by you. As the primary reservation holder, you accept full responsibility for ensuring that all members of your group, including visitors and invited guests, comply with this Agreement and all applicable property rules throughout the duration of the stay. If you reserve an Accommodation through a third-party booking platform or online travel agency (each an "OTA"), the OTA's terms and conditions will apply to your stay and if in conflict with these terms, will supersede. Rental Terms When reserving an Accommodation through our website or booking platform, you agree to pay all charges associated with your reservation, including the nightly rental rate, applicable taxes, cleaning fees, service fees, and any additional charges presented during the booking process (collectively referred to as the “Total Reservation Amount”). Guests acknowledge that access to the property and check-in instructions will only be provided once the full reservation balance has been successfully received and all required procedures have been completed. This may include identity verification, guest screening processes, signing required waivers or rental agreements, and, where applicable, approval or documentation required by homeowner associations or building management. By submitting payment for your reservation, you confirm that you have reviewed and accepted the terms outlined in this Agreement and all related policies of LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. The primary guest listed on the reservation remains financially responsible for the full booking amount, including any approved extensions, additional services, or applicable charges incurred during the stay. You further authorize LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA to charge additional amounts when necessary for damages, excessive cleaning, missing items, rule violations, unauthorized occupancy, or other costs resulting from the actions of you or anyone associated with your reservation during the stay. Subject to full payment of your reservation and compliance with this Agreement, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA grants you a temporary and limited right to access, occupy, and use the reserved Accommodation solely for approved short-term vacation purposes during the confirmed booking period. This right of occupancy does not create a tenancy, leasehold interest, or ownership right in the property. During your stay, and where permitted under applicable law, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA reserves the right to access or re-enter the Accommodation when reasonably necessary, including for inspections, maintenance, emergencies, safety concerns, rule enforcement, or protection of the property. Identity Verification To help maintain the safety, security, and integrity of our properties and guest community, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may require all guests to complete an identity verification process prior to check-in. These verification procedures are intended to help prevent fraud, unauthorized bookings, identity misuse, and other security-related risks. In certain cases, verification requirements may be waived if the reservation was made through a third-party booking platform that already provides sufficient identity verification measures acceptable to LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. Guests who fail to provide requested information, submit incomplete or inaccurate details, or do not successfully complete the verification process may have their reservation declined, suspended, or canceled at the sole discretion of LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. The duration of the stay is as agreed upon at the time of booking. Check-in time is 4:00 PM. Early check-in (as early as 2:00 PM) may be available for $50, subject to availability and prior approval. Check-out time is 10:00 AM. Late check-out (until 12:30 PM) may be available for $50, subject to availability and prior approval. Payments, Taxes, Damage & Deposits and Charges Taxes Depending on the location of the property and applicable local regulations, reservations made through LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may be subject to certain taxes and governmental charges. These may include, but are not limited to, sales tax, lodging tax, tourist tax, occupancy tax, hospitality tax, city tax, value-added tax, or similar regulatory fees (“Taxes”). Applicable taxes are calculated based on the reservation amount, accommodations booked, and any additional services purchased. Tax rates may vary depending on the jurisdiction in which the property is located and the regulations in effect at the time of the reservation or stay. In certain destinations, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may be legally obligated to collect and remit these taxes directly to local authorities on behalf of guests. Damage Deposit Policy Certain properties managed by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may require a non-refundable Damage Deposit as part of the reservation. The amount of the Damage Deposit is property-specific and will be clearly communicated during the booking process or prior to check-in. This Damage Deposit is intended to provide limited coverage for accidental damages that may occur during the stay. The applicable deposit amount for the reserved property will determine the maximum coverage available under this policy. Guests acknowledge that this Damage Deposit is not an insurance policy and does not remove or limit guest responsibility for damages, losses, violations, or costs that exceed the applicable deposit amount or fall outside the scope of covered incidents. Covered Damages The Damage Deposit may be used toward the repair, replacement, or restoration of accidental damage caused during the reservation period to items or areas within the property, including but not limited to furniture, appliances, fixtures, household items, flooring, carpets, rugs, walls, doors, windows, or similar property components belonging to the homeowner or LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. Exclusions The Damage Deposit does not apply to intentional damage, vandalism, theft, reckless behavior, gross negligence, or damages caused by unauthorized guests, parties, events, or pets. The policy also excludes: Missing keys, remotes, or access devices Excessive cleaning beyond standard turnover cleaning Smoking-related damages or odor removal Regulatory fines or HOA penalties Costs associated with guest removal or eviction Damages exceeding the applicable deposit amount for the property Additional Damage Charges If damages, losses, or related expenses exceed the applicable Damage Deposit amount, the primary guest listed on the reservation remains fully responsible for all additional costs. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA and/or the property owner may provide supporting documentation, including photographs, invoices, estimates, receipts, or repair reports relating to the damages incurred. Outstanding balances must be paid within three (3) days of written notification unless otherwise agreed in writing. Because the Damage Deposit is non-refundable, no portion of the deposit will be refunded after the stay, regardless of whether damages occurred. Reporting Damage Guests are expected to immediately report any accidental damage, malfunction, maintenance issue, or incident occurring during the stay. Any such issue must be reported as soon as reasonably possible and no later than twenty-four (24) hours after discovery. Failure to disclose damages or incidents may result in additional charges, penalties, or further claims for compensation. Normal Wear and Tear Standard wear and tear resulting from ordinary and reasonable use of the property will not be considered chargeable damage under this policy. Travel Insurance Recommendation LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA strongly recommends that guests obtain travel insurance coverage that includes protection against accidental damage to vacation rental properties, trip interruptions, cancellations, and liability-related incidents during travel. If the property is returned in good condition with no damage, missing items, or excessive cleaning required, the deposit will be fully refunded. Any remaining balance will be refunded once the inspection is complete. Authorized Use; Guest Responsibility The Accommodation may only be used as a private short-term vacation rental by the primary guest and the registered occupants included in the reservation. The primary guest accepts full responsibility for the conduct, behavior, and actions of all individuals staying at or visiting the property during the reservation period. If multiple individuals are listed as guests on the reservation, each guest shall be jointly and individually responsible for complying with all obligations, rules, payment responsibilities, and terms outlined in this Agreement. Any financial obligations, damages, fees, penalties, or liabilities arising under this Agreement shall remain enforceable until fully resolved and paid. Maximum Occupancy Guests agree not to exceed the maximum occupancy limit specified for the reserved Accommodation or listed within the reservation details, unless prior written authorization has been provided by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. All guests and visitors must vacate the property no later than the scheduled check-out date and time stated in the reservation confirmation, unless a late check-out or extension has been approved in writing. Unauthorized overnight guests, exceeding occupancy limits, or hosting unapproved visitors, gatherings, or events may result in immediate cancellation of the reservation, additional charges, removal from the property, or other actions permitted under applicable law. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA reserves the right to require guests to vacate the Accommodation if occupancy limits or reservation terms are violated. In such cases, guests may be subject to additional fees and shall not be entitled to refunds, credits, or compensation related to the early termination of the stay. Unauthorized Stay Beyond Check-Out Guests are required to vacate the Accommodation no later than the agreed check-out date and time stated in the reservation confirmation, unless an extension has been approved in writing by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. Any continued occupancy of the property after the authorized check-out time without prior approval shall be considered an unauthorized holdover stay. In such circumstances, the guest’s temporary right to occupy the Accommodation immediately terminates, and LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA reserves the right to require the guest and all occupants to vacate the property in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Guests acknowledge and agree that LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA, its representatives, property managers, security personnel, or local authorities may take reasonable actions necessary to regain possession of the property if an unauthorized holdover occurs. If personal belongings remain in the Accommodation following an unauthorized stay, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may remove and relocate such belongings to a storage location or other reasonable location at the guest’s expense. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA shall not be held responsible for loss, theft, damage, or deterioration of any items removed or stored. Guests further agree that any unauthorized occupancy beyond the approved reservation period may result in substantial additional charges. For every additional twenty-four (24) hour period, or portion thereof, guests may be charged up to two (2) times the standard undiscounted nightly rate applicable to the property, in addition to any related costs, damages, penalties, or losses incurred by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA or the property owner. Additional charges may include, but are not limited to: Lost revenue from canceled or relocated reservations Costs associated with alternative accommodations for incoming guests Operational disruptions Legal expenses Security or removal-related costs Additional taxes and service fees Guests authorize LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA to charge the payment method on file and/or apply any available deposit toward the recovery of such amounts related to unauthorized holdover occupancy. Cancellation Policy Cancellation policies may vary with each Property. See listings for additional details. Please note that if your reservation dates have been moved, all cancellation policies remain attached to your original reservation date.  Cancellation or Relocation by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA reserves the right to cancel, modify, or relocate a reservation if the reserved Accommodation becomes unavailable, unsafe, inaccessible, or otherwise unsuitable for occupancy due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control or operational limitations. This may occur because of maintenance emergencies, utility interruptions, guest overstays, weather-related issues, accidental double bookings across booking platforms, changes in ownership or management, licensing or regulatory restrictions, safety concerns, HOA limitations, government actions, or other unforeseen situations affecting the property. In situations where the originally reserved property cannot be provided, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may, where reasonably possible, offer the guest a comparable alternative accommodation with similar standards, size, quality, or location. If a suitable replacement property is not available, or if the guest chooses not to accept the alternative accommodation offered, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may cancel the reservation and issue a full refund for all amounts paid relating to the booking. Any refund issued under these circumstances shall represent the full extent of LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA’s obligation and liability regarding the cancellation, unavailability, or substitution of the reserved Accommodation, except where otherwise required under applicable law. Safety, Surveillance & Security Guests acknowledge and agree that properties managed by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may contain various safety and monitoring systems intended to protect guests, neighboring properties, homeowners, and the Accommodation itself. These systems may include smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, fire alarms, pool gates, pool safety devices, security systems, or noise monitoring technology, depending on the property and applicable legal requirements. Guests agree not to tamper with, disable, remove, obstruct, or interfere with any installed safety or monitoring equipment under any circumstances. Any malfunction, damage, safety concern, or maintenance issue involving these systems must be reported to LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA immediately. The intentional disabling or removal of safety devices shall be considered a serious violation of this Agreement and may result in immediate termination of the reservation and removal from the property. Guests further understand and acknowledge that certain properties may utilize exterior video surveillance systems for security, property protection, rule enforcement, and compliance with local regulations or community guidelines. Exterior cameras may operate continuously and may monitor areas such as entrances, driveways, parking areas, gates, and other outdoor spaces. No surveillance devices will be placed inside private interior living spaces or areas where guests have a reasonable expectation of privacy, in accordance with applicable privacy laws. Certain properties may also include noise monitoring technology designed to measure sound levels and help prevent excessive noise disturbances within residential communities. These systems do not record conversations or audio content but may alert LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA to elevated noise levels that could violate house rules or local regulations. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA may also implement additional security measures, patrols, access controls, or monitoring procedures at its discretion. Such measures may be modified, expanded, reduced, or discontinued at any time without prior notice whenever deemed necessary for operational, safety, or security purposes. Personal Property, Liability & Injury LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA does not provide insurance coverage for the personal belongings, valuables, vehicles, or other property of guests, occupants, or visitors staying at the Accommodation. Guests acknowledge that any personal property brought onto the premises is done entirely at their own risk. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA shall not be responsible for loss, theft, damage, or destruction of personal belongings caused by fire, water intrusion, weather conditions, vandalism, criminal acts, negligence of third parties, utility interruptions, or any other unforeseen circumstances. Guests further acknowledge that the use of the property and its amenities, including but not limited to pools, hot tubs, docks, balconies, stairs, outdoor areas, fitness equipment, recreational facilities, or playground equipment, involves inherent risks. The primary guest accepts full responsibility for their own safety and the safety of all occupants, guests, children, and visitors during the stay. Children must be supervised at all times while using any amenities or while present on the property. Except in situations directly resulting from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA or its authorized representatives, guests agree to release, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA, its property owners, affiliates, employees, contractors, agents, and representatives from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, injuries, disputes, legal proceedings, costs, or attorney fees arising from the actions, conduct, negligence, or use of the property by guests or any member of their party. Guests also acknowledge and agree that LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA shall not be liable for injuries, damages, losses, inconveniences, delays, or interruptions occurring during the stay unless directly caused by proven negligence or intentional wrongdoing on the part of LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA. This limitation of liability includes, but is not limited to: Theft or burglary Water leaks or flooding Smoke or fire damage Mold or environmental conditions Pest or vermin issues Utility outages Internet or cable interruptions Mechanical failures Temporary service disruptions LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA strongly recommends that guests obtain appropriate travel insurance or personal liability coverage to protect themselves, their companions, and their personal belongings during travel and occupancy of the property. Maintenance, Utilities & Equipment LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA strives to ensure that all property systems, appliances, amenities, and utilities are functioning properly prior to guest arrival. However, guests understand and acknowledge that occasional mechanical failures, service interruptions, or maintenance-related issues may occur during a stay. LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA cannot guarantee uninterrupted operation of heating systems, air conditioning units, kitchen appliances, televisions, entertainment systems, internet services, pools, spas, plumbing, electrical systems, windows, roofing, utilities, or other property features and amenities. Guests are required to promptly report any malfunction, maintenance concern, or inoperative equipment to LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA as soon as reasonably possible so appropriate efforts can be made to address the issue. While LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA will make commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate repairs and resolve reported issues in a timely manner, guests acknowledge that certain repairs may depend on vendor availability, replacement parts, weather conditions, utility providers, HOA restrictions, or circumstances beyond our control. Accordingly, LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA cannot guarantee that all maintenance issues will be resolved during the guest’s stay. Guests further acknowledge and agree that refunds, credits, rent reductions, or compensation will not be issued due to temporary maintenance issues, appliance malfunctions, utility interruptions, internet outages, nearby construction activity, noise disturbances, or similar inconveniences beyond our reasonable control. If troubleshooting instructions provided remotely by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA staff do not resolve the issue, maintenance personnel, technicians, or third-party vendors may be dispatched to the property to further investigate or address the concern. Cleaning Policy All properties managed by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA are professionally cleaned and prepared prior to guest arrival in accordance with company cleaning standards. Standard reservations do not include daily housekeeping services unless specifically stated otherwise. Guests may request additional housekeeping or mid-stay cleaning services during their reservation for an additional charge, subject to availability and scheduling. The standard cleaning fee included within the reservation covers routine post-checkout cleaning under normal usage conditions. Guests acknowledge that excessive dirtiness, unreasonable trash accumulation, smoking-related cleanup, bodily fluids, stains, odors, or abnormal property conditions requiring additional labor or specialized cleaning may result in extra cleaning charges. If LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA determines that the condition of the property after checkout exceeds normal cleaning expectations, guests authorize LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA to charge the payment method on file for additional cleaning costs reasonably incurred. House Rules The following House Rules apply to all properties managed by LUCHA Vacation Rentals VBA and form part of the Guest Agreement. Additional property-specific rules, instructions, or community regulations provided within the house manual, welcome guide, or check-in instructions are also considered part of this Agreement and must be followed at all times. Guests acknowledge that many vacation rental properties are located within residential neighborhoods or private communities. Respect toward neighbors, homeowners, staff, vendors, and the surrounding community is required throughout the duration of the stay. Failure to comply with local laws, HOA regulations, community guidelines, or these House Rules may result in immediate cancellation of the reservation, removal from the property without refund, additional penalties, fines, damage charges, or legal action. Certain violations may also result in fines up to USD $20,000 depending on the severity of the incident, property damage, regulatory consequences, or community-imposed penalties.
