By making a reservation for a particular period for a specific villa, you as a guest unconditionally accept these general conditions, that came into force on the day they were published on web page www. crowonder.com

All the annexes to the rental contract shall be valid only if made in a written form.

2. MAKING A BOOKING AND PAYMENT

The customer is responsible for making all payments due to us. Once an invoice has been sent out from CROWONDER a minimum non-refundable deposit of 30% of the rental cost must be sent, after which the reservation is confirmed, the contract with the owner is concluded and General conditions, which make a constituent part of the property rental contract are accepted. If the payment has not been made within 48 hours from the time of issuing, CROWONDER is allowed to conclude a new rental agreement with another guest. A higher deposit may be required where additional terms have been imposed on us by the property owner.

For the reservations which were made 30 days or more before the beginning of the rental period, the following conditions shall apply:

  • advance payment of 30 % (unless otherwise specified) of the total agreed accommodation price is due for payment immediately if the payment method over a credit card is selected. If the payment over bank transfers is selected, the paid advance payment has to be received by Wonder d.o.o. within 3 (three) working days;
  • the rest of 70 % (unless otherwise specified) of the total agreed accommodation price is due for payment no later than 30 (thirty) days before the beginning of the rental period if the payment is made by credit cards, bank transfer. If the payment in cash is selected (in the holiday units in which that possibility is permitted which is mentioned on the web page of Wonder d.o.o.) the rest of 70% is due for payment immediately after the guest`s arrival, and the guest is obliged to pay the rest immediately directly to the owner. There is no possibility to pay electronically (cards/pay pal) in the holiday object.

For the reservations which were made 30 days and less before the beginning of the rental period, the following conditions shall apply:

  • The total rental amount is due immediately for payment by credit cards or bank transfers. No cash payments are accepted.


A contract between you and the property owner will come into existence when you have paid us a deposit of 30% of the amount of reservation including all costs (or full payment if booking within 30 days from check-in) and we accept your booking by issuing a written confirmation. Croatian Law governs your contract and all matters arising out of it. Any disputes, claim or other matter, which arises out of or in connection with this contract, will be dealt with by the courts of Croatia only.

It is important that you check the accommodation confirmation you receive from us immediately on receipt. You must contact us straight away if any information appears to be incorrect as it may not be possible to make changes later. We regret we cannot accept any liability if we are not notified of any inaccuracies in any document within 14 days of our sending it out. The permitted payment methods for the advance payment are credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, Maestro, America) and bank transfers. The amount that will be charged on your foreign credit card is in Croatian currency (Kn). The amount your credit card account will be charged for is obtained through the conversion of the price in foreign currencies into Croatian kuna according to the current exchange rate of the Croatian National bank. When charging your credit card, the same amount is converted into your local currency according to the exchange rate of credit card associations. As a result of this conversion, there is a possibility of a slight difference from the original price stated in our proposals or website. If the payment by bank transfer is selected, the charge is made in EUR and there is no possibility of exchange rate differences. Guests are responsible for all bank fees to transfer and wire the money to us. CROWONDER needs to receive the full amount for your package of service.

The guest is obliged to make payments within the period and in a way described in this clause of the General Business Terms and Conditions. If the guest does not obey the payment due dates, such behavior is considered a severe breach of contract obligations, and the Rental Contract is considered terminated without the notice period, and CROWONDER is not obliged to inform the guest about it. Note for payments made from abroad - This method of payment refers exclusively to foreign clients. It is necessary to transfer the value of the reservation to the foreign account of the agency. The payer's and recipient's bank transfer fees are covered entirely by the client.

The service provider reserves the right to withhold service to the Traveler if the Traveler brings a pet to the accommodation without previously notifying the Agency or the service provider. In this case, the Agency is not obligated to accept complaints made by the Traveler on the quality of the booked accommodation or services.

Promotions and discounts cannot be aggregated with each other or combined. Each reservation can contain only one discount.

Lost or stolen luggage is to be reported to the accommodation service provider or to the relevant police station.

11. THE AGENCY'S RIGHT TO CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS

The Agency reserves the right to make changes of reservations in the event of circumstances that cannot be predicted, avoided, or eliminated (see Article 15). A reserved accommodation unit can only be changed with prior notification to the Traveler for an accommodation unit of the same category or of a higher category and at the price at which the Traveler confirmed the reservation. If the replacement accommodation is only possible in a higher-category unit where the price is 15% higher than the price of the paid reservation, the Agency reserves the right to charge the Traveler for the difference in agreement with the Traveler. In the event a replacement accommodation unit cannot be arranged, the Agency reserves the right to cancel the reservation and notify the Traveler prior to the beginning of the service and guarantees a full refund of the paid amount. If the Agency cancels a reservation, the Traveler is not entitled to any compensation from the Agency and the Agency is only obligated to refund the amount paid to the Agency's account. If an adequate replacement unit is not available on the day of the commencement of the service, the Agency will make an effort to provide the Traveler with information on possible alternative arrangements which are not a part of the Agency's offer and will refund the Traveler with the full amount paid for the reservation.

12. HANDLING/FILING COMPLAINTS

Each Traveler - reservation holder has a right to file a complaint if the paid services were not provided.  If the services provided are not satisfactory, the passenger is required to immediately notify the Agency about the inadequate service and file a complaint on the day of his/her arrival at the location to the service provider and to inform the Agency office by email at info@crowonder.com or by phone at +385 995495959 ( customer service working hours 08:00-16:00). The Traveler is obligated to cooperate with the Agency representative as well as with the service provider in a well-intentioned manner so that the cause of the complaint can be resolved.  If upon arrival the Traveler is not satisfied with the state of the accommodation and leaves the accommodation on his own initiative and finds another accommodation without giving the agency a chance to resolve the issue, correct the cause of the discontent, or find another accommodation for the Traveler, the Traveler does not have a right to request a refund or make a claim for compensation, regardless of the fact that his/her reasons were justified or not.

Should the Traveler accept the proposed solution which corresponds with the service rendered on the spot, the Agency will not take additional complaints into consideration or respond to them.

If the problem is not resolved on the spot following an intervention, the Traveler is obligated to submit a written complaint along with supporting documents as well as any photographs to support the complaint to the agency by e-mail at info@crowonder.com or by postal mail no later than 48 hours following the return of the Traveler from his/her trip. The Agency shall only take into consideration fully documented complaints that are received within the 48h deadline.

The agency is obligated to make a written solution to the complaint within 14 days of receipt of the written complaint. The agency can postpone the deadline in order to collect the evidence and check the claim quotes with the service provider but not for more than 14 days. The agency will take into consideration only those claims whose cause could not be resolved on the spot.

Until a decision has been made by the Agency, in other words for the duration of the 14/28 days after the complaint has been filed, the Traveler relinquishes the right to involve a third party, the arbitration of the UHPA or other institutions, publicly disclosing information as well as filing suit. The highest amount of compensation per complaint can amount to the complaint portion of the service and cannot encompass the used portion of the service or the total amount of the service. The law of tourism excludes the Traveler's right to be compensated for ideal damages.

If the Traveler is not satisfied with the answer from the organizer and has used services from an agency that is a member of UHPA and complained about the above-mentioned guidelines for the implementation process of the complaint, the Traveler can appeal to arbitrage UHPA.  In accordance with the Rules of Arbitration, the entire process should be completed within a month. During this process the organizer will either agree on the damages or the Traveler will with a small fee, learn that even in court, to which the Traveler can still appeal, there is almost no chance of winning the lawsuit.

The Agency cannot be held responsible for climate conditions, cleanliness, and the temperature of the sea, nor for other similar situations and events which can result in the dissatisfaction of Travelers and are not a direct result of the accommodation unit (for example, bad weather, improperly maintained beaches, crowds, lost or stolen property and such).

If the Traveler decides to book the special LAST MINUTE, FIRST MINUTE, or SPECIAL OFFER deal, then he accepts all risks of such travel. These journeys include uncertainty of facts upon which the agency cannot influence, and the Traveler primarily due to the price accepted such a trip and therefore has no right to the refund of payment or any complaint to the agency.

13. PERSONAL INFORMATION SECURITY

The Traveler provides personal information of his/her own free will. Personal information is required for processing requested services. The same information shall be used for inter-communication. The Agency is under obligation that the personal information of the Traveler will not be taken out of the country or given to a third party except for the purpose of carrying out requested services. The personal information will be kept in a database in accordance with the Management's decision on the method used for collecting, processing, and securing personal information. With the acceptance of these General Terms, the Traveler gives permission for his/her personal information to be used for promotional offers of the Agency.

14. NOTE

Paying a deposit or payment in full signifies that the Traveler fully comprehends and accepts the aforementioned terms.
