2011 ACCOMMODATION RATES

The Board has completed a review of all rates currently being charged to members and guests. After much consideration we have adjusted the rates for Accompanied Guests and Unaccompanied Guests and reduced the age for Adult meals from 18+ years to 16+ years of age. This has become necessary as the Lodge managers now prepare adult meals for all members and guests who are 16 years of age or older.

BOOKING CANCELLATIONS

In the past, refunds from booking cancellations were processed after the end of the season.  We have changed this process, so that any refunds will be made during the season as they occur.  Should you wish to cancel a booking, please contact the Lodge managers who will confirm the cancellation.  Please ALSO contact Jeof Falls on jeof.falls@measuredinsights.com, who will arrange the refund directly to your bank account, less a cancellation fee as outlined in the Booking Procedures.

BOOKING PROCEDURES

1.      During the Member’s Initial Booking Period, members can submit completed booking forms with a cheque to Post Office 274, Lane Cove, NSW 2066.  Members may also submit guest bookings at this time subject to the rules of priority for member bookings.

2.      Bookings during the Member’s Initial Booking Period will only be accepted for full weeks, from Sunday to the following Saturday.

3.      All cheques are to be accompanied by fully completed booking forms and no booking will be accepted without a cheque for full payment.  Separate booking dates/times require separate booking slips and separate cheques.

4.      In filling out the booking form, the date of birth of all children under 16 must be included otherwise the adult rates will apply.  The top of the booking form is for member’s name/address etc. Please give three booking dates – do not assume you will receive the first choice if it is the only one.  Return the booking form intact (i.e. three copies) with your cheque.  Confirmation will then be sent by mail to members after allocations have been completed by Peter Mullens & Steve Levett.

5.      Bookings after the Initial Booking Period (after 31 March for 2011) are to be made directly to the Lodge Managers, at the Lodge by email via the contacts page on the lodge’s website: http://AttungaSkiLodge.com.au or by phone on (02) 6457 6050.  Bookings should only be made on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday before 6 pm. All bookings are to be accompanied by a duly completed Booking Form to be either emailed to the Lodge Managers or included with the cheque (if paid by cheque) as detailed below.

6.      Payments for all bookings made with the Lodge Managers must be made within five (5) working days to confirm the booking otherwise the booking will be cancelled and given away without notification by the Lodge Managers.  The preferred form of payment is by direct credit to the Lodge’s bank account, with confirmation send by email to the Lodge Managers and to the Treasurer, Jeof Falls, on jeof.falls@measuredinsights.com. Please ensure you include the booking number provided by the Lodge Managers and your surname to ensure your booking can be easily reconciled.

If you prefer to pay by cheque, please mail the cheque together with the Booking Form to PO Box 1071, Wahroonga NSW 2076, which is the post office box of the Treasurer, Jeof Falls.  Although cheques mailed to the Lodge’s post office box will eventually be received and processed it may take some time and you may run the risk of losing the booking.

The Lodge is able to accept Visa and Mastercard (only) credit card payments, but the bank charge is a very hefty 4.645%, which the Lodge Managers have been instructed by the Board will need to be added to the cost of the booking when the credit card payment is made.

7.      Bookings for part-weeks will not be accepted until sometime during the winter season at the discretion of the Lodge Manager.

8.      Minimum booking is for two adults or one adult and two children.  If one (1) adult only occupies a room, the cost will be that of two (2) adults.

9.      Payments for bookings made during the season must be made prior to staying in the Lodge.

10.    Bookings include all breakfasts (7) and six (6) dinners.  On one evening when meals are not included in the tariff, the Manager will still provide a quality dinner at additional costs, payable to the Manager.

11.    Member’s guests have a greater chance of getting first choice in off peak period, i.e. not during the Winter and Spring school holidays.

12.    Rooms will be allocated at the discretion of the Board of Directors or the Lodge Manager only.

13.    Rooms are available from 2 pm on entry and must be vacated by 10 am on exit. GEAR and CARS must be removed from the Lodge grounds by 10 am on the morning of departure.

15.    All bed linen and towels are provided and are commercially laundered by the Lodge Manager at the end of each week.

16. Members are fully responsible for guests whether guests are either accompanied or unaccompanied, i.e. a member is responsible financially (bookings and damage) and for the behaviour of their family and guests.

CANCELLATION PROCEDURES

17.    In the past, refunds from booking cancellations were processed after the end of the season.  We have changed this process so that any refunds will be made during the season as they occur.  Should you wish to cancel a booking, please contact the Lodge managers who will confirm the cancellation.

18.    Please also contact Jeof Falls on jeof.falls@measuredinsights.com, who will arrange the refund directly to your bank account, less a cancellation fee of 10% of the booking cost if cancelled more than seven (7) days before the booked period.

19.    If a cancellation is made within seven (days) of the booking, the cancellation fee will be 50% of the cost of the booking unless the Lodge Managers are able to re-book the room(s) during that seven day period.
