CANCELLATION POLICY
For a full refund, you have 24 hours to cancel after your booking regardless of the time between booking and check-in date.
Beyond the initial 24 hour period you can cancel for a full refund with, at least, 30 days remaining before your check-in date. Within 30 days of check-in, no refunds will be given in the event of a cancellation.
If you are unhappy with the home and wish to move out, you must notify Yon within 7 days of arrival to receive a full refund for the remainder of your booking. Please note, this is for first time Yon guests only moving into their first Yon home.
For stays of 1 to 3 months, we treat the booking as a hotel reservation, and therefore, early departures are non-refundable. For stays exceeding 3 months, we require a 30-day notice for cancellation.
LONGER TERM RATES
To access our longer term rates (3 months+) you must commit to a stay of at least 3 months. If you decide to leave earlier than the 3 months, and outside of the initial 7 days cancellation window, you will be charged for the full duration of your stay.
To qualify for the 3-month rate, a guest must stay for three consecutive months. If a guest breaks their stay and returns, they will need to stay for another three consecutive months to receive the 3-month rate or revert to the full price if staying for less than three months.
RETURNING GUESTS
Returning guests are eligible for a 10% discount on the 1-3 month rate only. At this time, we don’t offer a discount on the 3-month rate for returning guests.
INITIAL AND ONGOING PAYMENTS
Payment for the first period (30 days) of your stay is due in full to secure your booking.
Follow-on payments for bookings longer than one month can be paid in regular 30 day instalments. Each instalment is due 30 days before the next period begins. Failure to pay the invoice within 24 hours of it being issued will result in an automatic cancellation with your room immediately becoming bookable for another guest.
RATES, TAXES & FEES
The total room charge is inclusive of VAT.
DAMAGES & CHARGES
Yon reserves the right to charge a value up to the total amount of the booking for any damage incurred by you to the room, home or building. It is your responsibility to flag anything that is damaged or faulty in your room when you check-in.
For lost keys, there is a €50 charge per key that needs replacing. If lock changes are required, additional charges may apply to cover the cost of new locks and fitting.
