Thank you for visiting www.therugbyclub.co.nz / www.rugbysafari.co.nz (the Website). If you are a Host offering bed/s (Hosting Request) or a Guest requesting bed/s (Guest Request) you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions (Terms).
Host/s and Guest/s must comply with all of the requirements and conditions in order to be eligible to receive accommodation/s and any payment/s for hosting. Your failure to fully comply will prevent the availability of accommodation/s and payment/s.
Booking confirmation
- If you make a Guest Request through the Website, the affiliated Rugby Club contact will contact you as quickly as possible to advise confirmation, non-acceptance or next steps of the Guest Request. Acceptance will be at the Rugby Club contacts sole discretion. If you provide a Host Request, IRC will provide your information to your preferred Rugby Club who will then take over the management of the Stay with Locals activity for their club. Where no club has been noted on the form by the Host, the IRC will act as the default Rugby Club.
- Host Request and Guest Request booking periods are available from 31 May 2017 through to 10 July 2017 within New Zealand only, unless otherwise specified by IRC.
- Guest Request/s must not exceed the maximum number of people agreed with IRC and affiliated Rugby Club, and provided in the booking confirmation itinerary, regardless of the number of beds available at the Host property, unless otherwise agreed by IRC.
- The booking is valid for the number of persons and group configuration as indicated on the Guest Request. Any changes to the booking should be communicated to and agreed by the IRC and affiliated Rugby Club, in writing, so as to ensure the booking remains valid.
Cancellations and booking changes
- All bookings are final and non-refundable. Whilst every effort will be made to run all advertised Stay with Locals venues, IRC reserves the right to cancel a venue due to low enrolment or other circumstances which would make the event unviable. If the IRC cancels a venue, attendees will be offered a refund of the price excluding a 20% admin/booking fee. The IRC annual membership fee is nonrefundable if the parking venue is cancelled.
- If you cancel the booking after the final payment is received, you remain liable for the balance of funds due for the booking.
- Premature departure during a booking will not be eligible for any refunds.
- Please note that IRC recommends all Guest/s book their own Travel Insurance which includes Travel Cancellation Insurance. This will protect you for a range of unforeseen situations.
