This is the responsibility of the tenant and no reminder will be sent for this. If the tenant fails to comply with the payment terms this will be considered a breach of contract. In such an event JRM is entitled without notice to terminate the reservation with no refund.
In case the tenant rents the property less than 6 weeks ahead of arrival the full payment needs to be made at once.
Payment is to be done by bank transfer or credit card. If tenant chooses to pay by credit card a fee of 1,5% applies within the EU. A fee of 2,9% applies for all credit cards outside of the EU.

JRM will respond swiftly and rectify any complaints as quick as possible.In the event the damage cannot be solved JRM reserves the right, following a legitimate complaint to move the tenant to another property of equal price and quality.
Many properties have various technical installations such as a washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, video, television, freezer, tumble dryer, sauna, swimming pool, Jacuzzi, etc. As these items are provided free of charge and subject to wear and tear, the tenant cannot make claims for unforeseen disruptions, damage and failure. This is also applicable in regards to a property’s sanitary installations and plumbing. In the event of any problems with regard to the above, the tenant should inform JRM appropriate action can be arranged by the owner as soon as possible.
ROLE AS A FACILITATOR:
JRM is not the owner of the rented properties, but only lets the properties on behalf of the owners and represents the owner’s interests for the rental period. If a rental cannot be completed due to reasons outside of the control of JRM, JRM is entitled to cancel the lease and refund any money already paid. If suitable JRM may in such an event offer an alternative property to the tenant in the same area and at the same price. The tenant may then choose to accept or not accept this alternative.
LAW:
Spanish law is applicable and the law of the jurisdiction in which the holiday home is located.
