General Terms & Conditions
All conditions for your holiday at LivingApple
1. Definitions
In these "General Terms & Conditions" the following definitions apply:
"Guest" — the person making the Booking and using the services and properties rented out by LivingApple;
"Booking" — the confirmation to reserve the accommodation for a defined stay period under the conditions established by LivingApple.
2. Booking confirmation and acceptance
By making the booking, the guest fully accepts the conditions of stay, including rates, payment terms, cancellation policy, check-in and check-out times and the house rules.
The booking is considered confirmed and binding once written confirmation has been received (by email or via online platform) together with payment of a deposit or the full amount of the stay.
3. Security deposit
The security deposit may be provided by choosing one of the following options:
- Offline (on arrival). The guest presents a credit card (no debit or prepaid cards) at reception and signs an authorisation form. No pre-authorisation is performed: it is solely a paper guarantee, which is destroyed upon departure.
- Online (pre-authorisation). The guest may provide the deposit through online pre-authorisation by signing into their Guest Area. The amount is temporarily held on the card with no actual charge. The procedure is handled via Stripe, certified PCI DSS Level 1, ensuring the highest data security — no card data is shared with the property.
The guest may choose or change the deposit method at any time before arrival.
4. Check-in
Check-in is available from 16:00 to 19:00. It is essential to communicate your arrival time to the staff promptly, in order to optimise the welcome and avoid unnecessary waits.
Access to the booked property is permitted only to the number of people stated in the booking. Children up to 2 years old sleep free of charge in the parents' bed; from the age of 2 onwards they are counted as adults.
At check-in, identity documents must be presented for all occupants.
The guest may choose to complete online check-in by signing into their personal area and entering the booking number provided in the confirmation email received at the time of booking.
5. Apartment equipment
The apartments are fully equipped with all the comforts and accessories needed for a pleasant stay, including everything required to cook and live in the home with full ease.
Bed linen and bath linen are also provided. Kitchen linen — such as tablecloths, napkins and tea towels — is not included.
6. Check-out and departure
The apartment must be vacated on the day of departure between 8:00 and 10:00.
On departure, the apartment must be left free of rubbish; pots, dishes and crockery must be washed and free of food residue. Please do not unplug the fridge and leave it empty.
Bed and bath linen must not be removed from the beds.
7. House rules
Access to the apartment is permitted exclusively to the people stated in the booking and, in any case, in a number not exceeding the available beds. Children over 2 years old are counted as adults for the purposes of apartment occupancy.
Bed and bath linen must not be washed during the stay.
Guests are asked not to move the furniture from its initial layout at the time of arrival, and not to use furniture or fittings intended for indoor use outside the apartment.
Guests must observe quiet hours, especially in the afternoon and at night. Quiet hours run from 13:00 to 16:00 and from 22:00 to 08:00.
