Future Booking Rate Code
This rate code is ONLY to be used for future bookings when rates are not yet available and is a placeholder to get the guest booked in the system.
The deposit required to book a future stay without rates is $100. ($250 for South Wind.)
The Future Booking Rate Code is NOT available for the following units:
Landmark Beach Homes
Crown Reef Penthouse
Ocean Escape
Ocean Creek Willow Bend
**DO NOT QUOTE THE RATE YOU SEE – IT IS NOT CORRECT**
Do not ballpark or guess if a guest asks you for an idea of what the rates will be. Please let them know that rates change from year to year but by booking early, they have assured the lowest possible rate for the dates they are booking because they’ve booked first.
We will contact the guest once rates become available for their stay dates – rates are typically available 8-10 months prior to the stay date. At that time, the guest will be required to pay any additional deposit due to equal the first night.
Cancellation
The deposit is non-refundable, and there is a $20 fee for date changes.
VIP can be purchased and will allow for a full refund (less the VIP cost) if they cancel and date changes can be made free of charge.
If a guest wants to add VIP but it is not available, you can make a note on the reservation and it will be added at a later time.
The following script is included in the Future Booking Disclaimers:
Because rates for your stay are not currently available, we are currently holding your reservation with a Future Booking placeholder rate with a $100.00 deposit. Once rates become available, we will contact you by phone and/or email to confirm your rates and collect any remaining deposit due to confirm your reservation.
