Cancellation rules and other useful information

Cancellation in case of illness or accident

All tenancies include a compulsory cancellation insurance. This insurance covers cancellation in the event of the tenant or the persons accompanying him or her or their spouses, children, grandchildren, parents, siblings or grandparents dying or suffering a serious accident or acute, serious illness. Cancellations due to chronic illness are not covered by this insurance. Pregnancy and consequences thereof are not regarded as illness. A tenant wishing to cancel must contact the Tourist Information Office immediately and at the same time send a medical certificate with diagnosis along with the tenancy certificate. The medical certificate must be received at the Tourist Information Office before the commencement of the tenancy. In case of a valid cancellation the rent minus a administration fee of 4% will be refunded. No refund can be made after commencement of the tenancy.
