-----

This Rental Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into to be effective on the date of guest booking confirmation (the “Effective Date”), by and between Seward Vacation Stays LLC | Seward Properties LLC, whose mailing address is P.O. Box 3745 Seward, Alaska 99664 (the “Manager”), as agent of the owner of the Premises (the “Owner”), and you (the “Guest”).

By booking a reservation with Seward Vacation Stays in consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and therefore, the Manager and Guest agree as follows:

1. Rental of Premises; Term. Guest agrees to rent from Manager the reserved property from 4:00 p.m. Alaska Time to 11:00 a.m. Alaska Time on the confirmed booking dates (the “Term”). Guest understands and agrees that it cannot access the Premises for any reason, including parking or loading/unloading, prior to check-in time unless otherwise approved by Manager as Manager will be preparing the Premises for your arrival. Guest may not remain on the Premises after check-out time unless approved by Manager, and Guest understands they will be charged a minimum of a full day’s Rent if they remain on the Premises after expiration or termination of the reservation dates. Manager may remove all Guests and their personal belongings from the Property.

2. Rent. Guest will pay Manager the total sum of which includes the nightly rental rate, fees and taxes. Guest has reviewed and approved (collectively, “Rent”). Guest shall pay 100% of the Rent to Manager when booking.

All payments made to Manager shall be by credit card. Guest authorizes Manager to automatically charge Guest’s credit card for any payments owed pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation any portion of Rent due and repair costs and expenses.

Guest understands that there are no refunds or reductions to the Rent for early departures or late arrivals, no matter the cause.

3. Communication.
Guest consent to receive email, phone calls and/or text messages (SMS) from Seward Vacation Stays and its hosts and co-hosts.

4. Cancellation Policy.

a. Cancellation by Guest. Unless otherwise provided herein, if Guest cancels at least 7 days prior to the start of the Term, Manager will refund all pre-paid Rent to Guest, except the processing fees. Because Guest’s reservation precludes other rentals of the Premises, Guest agrees that if Guest cancels or shortens its stay less than 7 days prior to the start of the Term, for any reason, Rent is non-refundable to Guest. Guest understands and agrees that the processing fee is non-refundable regardless of when a cancellation is made and will not be returned to Guest under any circumstances.

b. Cancellations by Manager. Manager reserves the right to unilaterally terminate this Agreement for any reason within 24 hours of the Effective Date by providing notice of termination to Guest. After this 24-hour time period, Manager reserves the right to unilaterally terminate this Agreement should circumstances arise that are outside of Manager’s control, including without limitation the following circumstances: (i) if the Premises become unavailable prior to the Term due to structural damage, leaks, fire or other conditions that would make the Premises potentially unsafe or uninhabitable for Guest; (ii) sale of the Premises; (iii) transfer of the Premises out of Manager’s property management program; or (iv) force majeure. For the purposes of this Agreement, “force majeure” includes power outages, governmental or quasi-governmental laws, regulations, and orders, pandemics, including without limitation COVID-19, riots, war, natural disasters, or other circumstances of a like nature outside the control of Manager.

Manager will notify Guest of such circumstances as soon as is practicable. If Guest desires to be transferred to alternative premises, Manager will make reasonable efforts to relocate the Guest to a reasonably comparable property. In such case, the Guest agrees to pay any increase in rental charges, fees and taxes associated with the alternative premises should those premises normally rent for a greater rental fee. If Manager is unable to secure a reasonably comparable property for Guest, Manager will refund all pre-paid Rent to Guest and this Agreement shall automatically terminate. Said refund shall be the full extent of Manager’s liability to Guest in such circumstances, and Guest understands and agrees that Manager will not be responsible or liable for any other costs or expenses in connection with cancellations pursuant to this section.

5. Security Deposit. The purpose of a refundable security deposit is for general property upkeep and to repair minor, accidental damage caused by Guest or Rental Party during the Term. Whether damage is considered minor and accidental is in the sole discretion of the Manager, and Guest by booking the property below acknowledges the same. If the Manager determines the damage is accidental and minor and Guest timely reports said damage to Manager (which, at a minimum, means reporting prior to departure), the Security Deposit in part or in whole will cover such minor, accidental damage. Timely reporting of any damage during the Term is critical. Guest understands that in the event damage exceeds minor accidental damage, Guest will be responsible for those amounts above the Security Deposit Fee.

6. Channel Terms. If you are booking through a third-party marketing channel, your booking may be subject to that channel’s own terms and conditions (“Channel Terms”). If any provision of applicable Channel Terms differs from the Terms in this Agreement, the provision of the Channel Terms will control.

7. Use and Occupancy of the Premises; House Rules.

a. Guest shall use and occupy the Premises in a careful, safe and proper manner and in compliance with all laws, regulations, orders, covenants, and rules applicable to the Premises. Guest agrees not to use or permit the use of the Premises for any purpose prohibited by law or for any purpose deemed extra hazardous or which would make void or voidable any insurance on the Premises or which would cause or be likely to cause damage to the Premises.

b. Guest agrees not to damage or deface the Premises in any manner. Guest shall immediately report any loss or damage to Manager. Guest is responsible for all losses and damage to the Premises and property therein during the Term, and Manager is authorized to charge Guest for the cost of all repairs.

Nice location but...
The property was clean and in a great location. The beds were comfortable and had nice linens. The kitchen was well appointed with all the necessities. Our issues were with the stairs and seating. Access to the house is up several stairs. This would not be a problem except there were no handrails. When you first enter the house there is a small landing with stairs going both up and down. Again, there were no handrails. The stairs were not carpeted, but had small stair pads on each step. These were not secured to the floor at all and moved as you stepped on them. It was rather precarious going up and down. If a guest is mobility challenged, this is not the house for you. The furniture in the living room was all VERY low. It appears that the legs have been removed on the sofa and loveseat. It made getting up from those places very difficult for everyone in our group of 60+ year olds. The master bathroom shower was difficult at best. It was the size of a small cruise ship shower and difficult to use without getting water on the floor. This is a great property for folks with no mobility issues, although it was not ideal for our group.

Amazing views
Wonderful picture windows. Pre-cruise two night stay. The house was centrally located and walkable to everything. Choose your free shuttle stops wisely if toting big luggage and tip the driver. Two in our crew did all day memorable kayaking through Kenai Fyords. Lots to do, see, explore. Great coffee at Ressurect Art. Enjoyed Thai at Woody’s. Loved the Sea Life Center.

Awesome location and comfortable home
This was an incredible find for our family. The home was equipped with many small non essential comforts which made the experience even better. This place is in a great central location, close to the water and town with priceless views. This was one of the best VRBO experience i have had.
