Amrit Ocean Resort Group Contract Terms & Conditions
Check-In/Out Time:
Our check-in time is 4:00 PM, check-out time is 11:00 AM. All guests arriving before check in time will be accommodated as rooms become available. Hotel’s Bell Staff can arrange to check baggage for those arriving early when rooms are unavailable and for guests attending functions on departure day.
Guest Payment Arrangements:
Room and tax will be paid by individuals at the hotel; Incidental charges will be paid by individuals at the hotel, in which case these charges must be paid in full prior to the guest’s departure, with individual credit being established upon check-in; If Group submits a rooming list with reservations that will be paid for by Individuals On Own. Early departure charges will be waived.
Cancellation Policy:
Hotel has offered the favorable sleeping room rates and other concessions in this Agreement based upon the Total Anticipated. Revenue for your Event, plus additional revenue that the Hotel anticipates we would receive from providing additional services to your attendees at additional charge. If this Agreement is cancelled by Group, the parties agree that the Hotel will have lost the revenue represented by this Agreement, and also the opportunity to offer your unused facilities to others either individually or as part of another block and we will incur additional costs in attempting to resell inventory that was already sold to you. The parties agree that since the exact amount of such damages will be difficult to determine, the liquidated damage clauses provided for in this Agreement are a reasonable effort by the parties to agree in advance on the damages that the Hotel will suffer due to a cancellation. Therefore, Group agrees that should Group cancel your Event for any reason other than due to a valid Impossibility occurrence, including changing your meeting site to another hotel, Group will pay as liquidated damages to the Hotel a percentage of the Total Anticipated Revenue for your Event, plus any applicable state and local taxes as required by law, as follows:
Cancellation between contract signing and 120 days to arrival: 50% Room Revenue
Cancellation between 119 and 90 days: 75% Room Revenue
Cancellation between 89 days and date of arrival: 100% Room Revenue
The parties agree that the sliding scale of damages above is intended to reflect that the closer in time to the date of your Event that a cancellation occurs; the less likely it is that Hotel will be able to replace any or all of your business with comparable business. Therefore, no analysis of resale or mitigation will be required and damages will be due as set forth below. Payment of cancellation damages is due within 30 days following your written notice of cancellation to us. We may consider your notice of cancellation to be invalid and thus may not release accommodations held until payment of the applicable cancellation damages is received; therefore delay in payment may result in higher cancellation damages owed.
Security:
We have no insurance for and are not responsible for any loss or damage to your property. If required, in our sole judgment, in order to maintain adequate security measures in light of the size and/or nature of your function, you will provide, at your expense, security personnel supplied by a reputable licensed guard or security agency doing business in the city or county in which we are located, which agency will be subject to our prior approval. Such security personnel may not carry weapons. For the safety of persons and property, no fireworks or incendiary devices may be used indoors at the hotel Group agrees to comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, including health and safety codes and federal anti-terrorism laws and regulations including all provisions of the Patriot Act and regulations of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Office of Foreign Assets Control and the provisions of 29 CFR part 470. Group agrees to cooperate with Hotel and any relevant governmental authority to ensure compliance with such laws.
