13. GUARANTEES AND RETURNS

The guarantee of the services offered will respond to the following articles based on the Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007, of 16 November, which approves the revised text of the General Law for the Defence of Consumers and Users and other complementary laws:

Conformity of the services with the contract

  1. Unless there is evidence to the contrary, it shall be understood that the services are in accordance with the contract provided that they meet all the requirements set out below, unless, due to the circumstances of the case, one of them is not applicable:
  2. a) They conform to the description provided by SIESTA MAR.
  3. b) They are suitable for the uses to which services of the same type are normally put.
  4. c) Are suitable for any special use required by the USER, when this has been made known to SIESTA MAR at the time of the conclusion of the contract, provided that the USER has accepted that the service is suitable for this use.
  5. d) They present the usual quality and performance of a service of the same type that the client can reasonably expect, taking into account the nature of the service and, where appropriate, the descriptions of the specific characteristics of the services made by SIESTA MAR.
  6. e) SIESTA MAR describes the details, technical characteristics and photographs of the properties provided by the property owners, so that it is not bound by these public statements.
  7. The lack of conformity resulting from a service not performed or rendered shall be considered as a lack of conformity with the contract, provided that the responsibility for it lies with SIESTA MAR or under its responsibility; on the other hand, when the service not performed or rendered is due to negligence or malpractice of the USER, it shall not be considered a fault of SIESTA MAR and shall be considered in accordance with the terms of the contract.
  8. There shall be no liability for non-conformities that the USER knows or could not have been unaware of at the time of entering into the contract or that originate from information provided by the USER.

Responsibility of SIESTA MAR

The PROVIDER shall be liable to the USER for any lack of conformity at the time of delivery of the accommodation. SIESTA MAR recognises the USER’s right to repair the service, to its replacement, to a price reduction and to the termination of the contract.

Repair and replacement of the accommodation service

  1. If the hosting service does not comply with the contract, the USER may choose between demanding the repair or replacement of the same, unless one of these options is impossible or disproportionate. From the moment the USER informs SIESTA MAR of the option chosen, both parties must comply. This decision by the USER is understood to be without prejudice to the provisions in cases where the repair or replacement fails to bring the service into conformity with the contract.
  2. Any form of remedy that imposes costs on SIESTA MAR that are unreasonable in comparison with the alternative form of remedy, taking into account the value that the service would have if there were no lack of conformity, the significance of the lack of conformity and whether the alternative form of remedy could be carried out without major inconvenience to the USER, shall be considered disproportionate.

Repair and replacement shall be carried out in accordance with the following rules:

– The necessary costs incurred to remedy the non-conformity of the contracted services shall be free of charge for the USER.

– They shall be carried out within a reasonable period of time and without major inconvenience for the USER, taking into account the nature of the services and their purpose for the USER.

– If, once the repairs have been completed and the property has been delivered, it still does not comply with the contract, the USER may demand its replacement, a price reduction or termination of the contract.

– If the replacement fails to bring the property into conformity with the contract, the USER may demand the repair of the property, a price reduction or termination of the contract.

 

Price reduction and termination of the contract

The price reduction and termination of the contract shall be applicable, at the USER’s choice, when the USER cannot demand the repair or replacement of the service and in cases where this has not been carried out within a reasonable period of time or without major inconvenience to the USER.

Termination shall not be applicable when the lack of conformity is of minor importance.

Criteria for price reduction

The price reduction shall be proportional to the difference between the value that the service would have had at the time of delivery if it had been in accordance with the contract and the value that the service actually delivered had at the time of delivery.

Deadlines

Unless there is proof to the contrary, delivery is understood to have been made on the day shown on the reservation.

The USER must inform SIESTA MAR of the lack of conformity at the time when he/she becomes aware of it or, at the latest, at the end of the stay.

Unless there is proof to the contrary, it will be understood that the USER’s communication has taken place within the established period.

14. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION

These conditions shall be regulated or interpreted in accordance with Spanish law in all matters not expressly established. SIESTA MAR and the USER agree to submit any dispute that may arise from the provision of the products or services covered by these Conditions to the courts and tribunals of the USER’s domicile.

In the event that the USER is domiciled outside Spain, the PROVIDER and the USER expressly waive any other forum, submitting to the Dispute Resolution Entity that will act as an intermediary between them in accordance with Art. 14.1 of Regulation (EU) 524/2013, without the need to resort to the courts of law.
