The cancellation and change terms of your rate, and any taxes or fees payable at the property, are shown at checkout before you pay and in your confirmation. Amounts payable at the property are paid there, to the Property. When you ask us to change or cancel a booking, we apply those terms and pay any refund due to the card you paid with.
Cancellation processing fee. If your rate is refundable and you cancel before its refund deadline, we refund 95% of the total price you paid. The other 5% is a processing fee that covers the card-payment costs we cannot recover when a payment is refunded, and it is non-refundable. Rates marked “Refundable” or with an asterisk (*) on the Platform are subject to this fee. It applies to bookings made on or after 8 October 2026; bookings made before then keep the full refund shown in their confirmation. The fee is not charged when we or the Property cancel your booking, or when a booking cannot be confirmed: you then get the full amount back. After the refund deadline, or on a non-refundable rate, the rate’s own terms apply.
Unless stated otherwise, prices are shown and charged in US dollars (USD). Where a price is displayed in another currency, any conversion is indicative; your card issuer’s rate at the time of payment applies.
Island Inventions, Inc. (Tell & Go) takes your payment through Stripe, our payment processor, and pays the supplier. We never see or store your full card number. For rates that confirm instantly, we take payment when you book; for some rates your card is first authorised (a hold for the full amount) and charged when the supplier confirms. If the booking cannot be confirmed, the hold is released or the full amount goes back to your card. For request-to-book rates, your card is saved and checked when you ask and charged only if the Property confirms, which it has up to 72 hours to do; if it does not confirm, you pay nothing. Confirming and paying for a booking means you accept these Terms and the rate’s terms.
You authorise Tell & Go to send traveller details, preferences and relevant documents to our supply partner and to the Property so that your stay can be provided.
