We will reply to you, after checking flight schedules, itineraries etc with a detailed quotation. At this point we are unable to check hotel availabilities as this often involves communication costs. The quote should be treated as a guide and is subject to availability at the time of your actual booking. If this quote is acceptable and you wish to make a reservation you must advise us by E-mail of the following:

bullet Full name(s) of all people travelling and their nationalities,as per passport.
bullet Contact phone number.

bullet Your street and postal address  
bullet Ages of any children travelling.
bullet Departure city.
bullet Destination and itinerary.

On receipt of this information we will make the flight reservations (if applicable), at which time a deposit of AU$200 (or higher amount, if applicable) per person is payable. This may be paid by on of the following methods:

bullet Cheque drawn on an Australian bank..
bullet Credit Card* (we accept Visa, Mastercard, AMEX or Diners Club).

bullet Bank Draft or Telegraphic Transfer (for overseas clients).

Prices quoted reflect a discount for final payment by cheque/bank transfer.

If you choose to pay by credit card the following additional charges apply – Visa/Mastercard add 1.5%, Amex/Diners add 3.5% to the total amount payable.

Conditions Applicable to Bookings
Please read carefully as these conditions will apply to your booking.

Deposits: Please note that we are unable to check availability of accommodation prior to booking your flights. Once the international flights are confirmed you will be required to pay a deposit and we can then request your accommodation. Hotel bookings are often very heavy and availability can change in minutes and without notice. It would therefore be pointless to check on hotel availabilities without actually putting a hold on the accommodation based on the flights you are holding, as by the time you came back to us the accommodation may have been sold to someone else. To request accommodation a deposit is required, however payment of this deposit does not guarantee availability until such time as we receive the reply from the accommodation and advise you accordingly. In the event that the accommodation you requested is not available and that there is no other alternative acceptable to you, you will receive a refund of the deposit paid. On confirmation of your accommodation we will reconfirm the total costing.

On confirmation by us of the complete booking you will be advised of:

bullet Final payment requirements and any special conditions.
bullet Documentation requirements.

Important Notice regarding your eMAIL address. It is essential that you advise us in writing at time of booking of your correct eMAIL address. All communications and documents will be sent to that email address. If you change your email address you must advise us by email of that new address and receive an acknowledgement (not an automated response) from us that we have received it. If you do not receive an acknowledgement, that means that we have not received it and you will need to resend. You must ensure that your anti-spam filters are not blocking our email and if you have any doubts or problems please consult your IP Provider or IT Specialist. Hideaway Holidays will not be responsible for any emails that you do not receive due to anti spam settings on your computer, server or IP.

bullet Our office hours are normally Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm (Sydney time) excluding Public Holidays. If the advertised Book By Date falls on a non work day, then bookings must be made by close of business on the previous work day.
bullet All confirmations are subject to availability at time of booking. In the event that the required package, hotel or flight is not available we will endeavour to offer your an alternative.
bullet Prices and inclusions as quoted on our Web pages, Quotes, Booking Advice and Invoices are current at time of publication/issue, however these are subject to change due to currency fluctuations, tariff changes, tax increases, schedule changes and other reasons. Before making final payment you must check with us to see if any variation in cost, or other details has occurred. Should you pay your 'final' amount based on an earlier invoice and itinerary, costs, currency changes or other changes may have occurred. We reserve the right to re-invoice you to reflect these changes and any additional costs must be paid prior to release of documents.
bullet All charges and costs will be processed in Australian dollars and the approximate prices given in other currencies are for guidance only - the actual amount charged to your credit card in another currency will vary and will be determined by the exchange rate set by your bank. Your bank will convert at the applicable exchange rate on the day they process the transaction. All bank fees are your responsibility.
bullet There is limited availability of the Specials outlined on our site and this is determined by airlines, hotels and suppliers. Stay/Pay deals and other specials at hotels are capacity controlled and only a limited number of rooms may be released on the special. Bookings can only be confirmed on a first-come-first-served basis and are subject to availability at time of booking.
bullet Hotel standards and facilities, cruise ship and charter boat standards/facilities vary from time to time and hotels may start renovations with or without notifying us. If we are advised of any renovations at the hotel we will notify you, but we do not take any responsibility if we are unaware of renovations due to no advice from the hotel, or changes in facilities. By making your reservation you acknowledge that Hideaway Holidays/Paradise Adventures and Cruises is in no way responsible for quality of facilities or service at the hotel chosen and for any renovations that may be underway at the resort, or other service. It is your responsibility to research the facilities offered at your selected hotel, cruise ship or other service before you make your reservation. You should make your decision based on your own independent assessment. We will always suggest booking the deluxe 5-star resorts but acknowledge that you may have your own reasons for selecting an alternative property or service and take no responsibility for an incorrect choice. Please note that free and charged facilities offered by hotels or operator may change without notice and it is essential that you verify any costs directly with the hotel or operator.
bullet Optional services (eg tours, meals etc) may be available, but these are at an additional cost. In some cases you may be able to pre-book these, or they may be available at your destination. In all cases these are at extra cost unless explicitly stated on your invoice that they are included.
bullet The suitability of a particular destination, accommodation, cruise, yacht charter, or other service is your responsibility as you may need to take into account weather, age and medical considerations. If in doubt you should research this information directly with the supplier, tourist office or other independent source before making the booking. Bookings are accepted from you on the basis that you will not hold Hideaway Holidays/Paradise Adventures responsible in the event of a wrong choice being made.
bullet Airfare and Land Content: If you are booking  travel arrangements which includes both airfare and land content, the airfare portion will be treated separately from the land content. For example, if you have booked an airfare and hotel accommodation, and the hotel has become unavailable for whatever reason, you will be subject to the applicable amount on the airfare if you decide to cancel the trip.
bullet Wet Season:  if travelling in the South Pacific between December and April you should be aware that you are travelling in the 'wet season' and there is a greater chance of cyclones during this period. Hideaway Holidays will not be responsible for any disruption to travel arrangements due to wet weather, cyclones or other climatic conditions. Travel disruptions may occur any any additional costs will be the customer's responsibility. Likewise if you cancel or amend your trip, or any part of it you will be subject to cancellation/amendment penalties.  You must ensure that you have suitable travel insurance to cover this eventuality.
bullet Transportation arrangements are handled by separate suppliers. In the event that the transportation supplier is unable to transport you as scheduled (eg to hotel, airport etc) for whatever reason you will still be subject to cancellation/amendment penalties as applied by hotels/airlines etc. In the event that your transportation is delayed or cancelled you must notify the affected hotel/airline/transportation company directly. Failure to do so could involve cancellation/amendment fees and other charges. Travel times, as provided, are based on normal conditions. Adverse weather conditions, or other reasons beyond our control, may result in itinerary changes, or cancellation of your booked arrangements. Cancellation fees will apply in the event of cancellation. Itinerary changes may involve additional costs. Hideaway Holidays/Paradise Adventures cannot take any responsibility for such events which are outside our control. Travel insurance should be considered a necessity to cover such situations. Always check with the local operator (airline or ground transport operator).
bullet In the event that on arrival you are dissatisfied with the accommodation you must immediately advise the hotel management (not just reception) of your dissatisfaction. In this way, they can try to solve the problem for you. If you are not able to get satisfaction from the hotel management you must notify us by eMAIL or fax of this, and state your reasons (phone notifications will not be accepted). We will endeavour to assist you where we can, but please note that additional costs may apply if you decide to upgrade, change or vary your accommodation and we will not be responsible for any payments that may have been made in advance and which the accommodation proprietor refuses to refund.
bullet Schedule changes do occur and if this information is advised to us prior to your departure we will advise you. You may be subject to additional costs for additional accommodation etc and this additional cost must be paid prior to departure. You must reconfirm all flights with the carrier concerned for all flights in your itinerary and recheck all flight times. If schedule changes occur you must liaise with the airline/transportation company and any extra costs are your own responsibility. Any affected hotels are to be advised directly by you of the change. Hideaway Holidays/Paradise Adventures are not responsible for any such additional costs, or for missed connections due to failure to reconfirm with the carrier concerned, or for any other reason.
bullet Prices quoted in our brochures, flyers, other promotional media and invoice do not include some airport departure taxes and other levies. Pre-paid taxes are subject to change without notice and in the event that there is an increase the amount will be added to your invoice. These additional levies and taxes may apply even if you have paid your tour balance. For certain countries, airport departure taxes are paid locally and this is the passenger's responsibility.
bullet Please note the inclusions as listed on your itinerary are as provided by suppliers and are subject to change. Any additional items are at your own expense. Excess baggage, meals, airport taxes, communication costs and other items of a personal nature are not included. Where hotels, or other suppliers, had originally specified certain inclusions, these may no longer be available at time of travel and Hideaway Holidays will not be liable for the non provision of these services, or hotels/suppliers charging extra for these services.
bullet Quotes are provided as such and are no guarantee that the arrangements are available once you request your booking. If you have received a quote there is no guarantee that it is available when you actually book. What is available one day may be sold out the net day. In many cases requests have to be sent to one or more supplies to confirm the package. Some airlines require immediate purchase for special fares. Hotel and resort bookings require deposit at time time that request is made.
bullet Should you wish to request a booking you need to pay us a deposit. Payment of a deposit does not guarantee that the arrangements requested are available and in the event that we cannot confirm substantially the same arrangements as requested by you and you do not accept the offered alternative you will be entitled to a refund of the deposit paid if you prefer to cancel and in that case all our obligations shall cease.
bullet All deposits paid are an administration fee and are non refundable should you decide to cancel. Reservations cannot be confirmed immediately and sometimes it may take several days to get replies back from hotels and operators. In the event that you decide to cancel before allowing sufficient time for the hotel or operator to respond, the standard cancellation penalty will apply (ie loss of deposit plus any other charges that may apply).
bullet Payments and Price Changes: Failure to make deposit or final payments by specified date may result in cancellation of booking and cancellation fees will apply up to the total amount paid. If you have paid a deposit only, but you fail to pay the balance by date stipulated and as advised to you in writing, then the booking may be subject to cancellation and all money's paid are to be retained as a cancellation fee. We strongly suggest that full payment for your package be made immediately on receipt of the Invoice or Booking Advice to minimise any chances of price increases due to currency fluctuation, increase in tax and related charges - international airline tickets, once issued will not be subject airfare or tax and charges increase as these do vary on a daily basis. When making any payment you must advise us by email of these details (including copy of bank receipt if paying by bank transfer) so that we can correlate the payment with your booking. Payments are not received unless acknowledged by us in writing. Payments received after 12 noon during normal work days will be processed by the end of the next work day. Any currency fluctuation that may occur between payment receipt and processing will be the customer's responsibility.
bullet Prices are based on specially negotiated prices with hotels, airlines etc and cancellation fees are applicable for any bookings cancelled.  Cancellation fee is 100% of the amount paid, or such other amount as advised in writing. Travel insurance is strongly recommended and is available at extra cost. Your travel insurance should include cover for cancellation/amendment fees in the event of unforseen circumstances affecting your travel plans. Advance purchase conditions may apply for your holiday. All prices are based on economy class air travel, unless otherwise specified.
bullet In case of cancellation, and in certain cases, a credit may be provided (after deduction of cancellation fees) towards the cost of a future Hideaway Holidays package - any such credit and it's terms and conditions will be advised in writing and there will be a specified 'use by' date specified. If credit is not utilised by specified date, the credit is forfeited. Credit, if provided, can only be used towards the purchase of Hideaway Holidays packages and will be governed by conditions imposed by airlines, hotels and other suppliers.

If you require bookings to be made by phone or fax extra fees apply, and if this service is required it should be requested at time of booking.
bullet If there is an advertised Book By Date, or if you are given a Book By Date this means that the entire package must be confirmed and full payment must be received by us and processed by close of business on this date. Do not delay booking your holiday until the last minute as some services may take time to confirm. Please refer to Office Hours.
