Smoking policy

Please note that we are a non-smoking property (including e-cigarettes). A cleaning fee will be charged for smoking in a room (including balconies) or public areas.

Payment

All remaining charges are to be settled upon check-out.

RACV Resorts require a pre-authorisation to be taken on check-in as this process validates your credit card.

The pre-authorised amount is set aside by the card issuer for a period of up to 14 days from the date of pre-authorisation and the pre-authorisation will affect your available funds balance or spending limit. For more information on this practice please contact your card issuer.

Once a pre-authorisation has been made, RACV cannot release, remove or lower the authorised amount. This is a restriction imposed by the card issuer, and cannot be negotiated.

Upon check-out it is a requirement that all charges are settled with the property.

Where a credit card is not used the total accommodation amount will be required on check-in accompanied by a $100 security deposit.

This deposit will be refunded upon check-out or can be used towards any incidental or remaining charges.

Credit card payments

A surcharge will apply to all payments made by American Express and Diner Club cards.

  • American Express: 2.8%
  • Diners Club: 2.45%

Visa and MasterCard payments do not attract a surcharge.

Credit limit

All RACV Resorts extend a credit limit of $3000 per credit card held. However, accommodation stays which exceed 7 days are required to settle all outstanding balances on a weekly basis.
