Local assistance and key details:

• Local Assistance
  The owners use a local agency in Budoni, the "CENTRO SERVIZI", which is staffed 7 days a week (Sunday for new arrivals only) by friendly multi-lingual staff, who are there to help and advise you and to generally ensure your holiday runs smoothly. 
  Guests will receive property vouchers with the agency's telephone number and an emergency mobile number.
  The agency is also usually the first port of call upon arrival, unless guests arrive during the night and/or key collection has been otherwise arranged.
  (The office is easy to find and we will forward directions, maps and telephone numbers).

• Options
  
  If the property is available and you wish to go ahead with your booking, please request an option (provisional hold), by completing the 'booking request' form.
  
  Once SARDAFIT have confirmed the option, we will hold the property for you for 48 hours-3 days to give you the chance to talk to the rest of your party and to book flights, car hire & insurance (please see external links: FLIGHT LINK , CAR HIRE and INSURANCE LINK for further information).

  Accommodation rental is per night; your property will be available for you at 16.30 on the day of your arrival and you will be asked to vacate at 10.00 on the day of departure.
  
  However, in some cases, a property may already be cleaned and prepared and the agency may be able to arrange an earlier check in. Please check with the agency staff upon arrival.

  Late check out can sometimes be arranged locally if there is no new arrival the same day and subject to cleaning rotas.
