Discounts and last-minute deals
Roan reserves the right to grant discounts on last-minute deals to customers who book a trip from that moment onwards. If you have already booked a holiday and a discount or special deal is offered after your booking date, you are not entitled to a refund. Discounts are not valid on extras. For all contiguous discounts: the cheapest nights are free and it is possible to combine campsites.
 
Early bird bookings in 2020
Changes and booking cancellations are permitted at no extra charge prior to 1 February 2020. If you made your booking before 1 October 2019 and wish to change it, you can do so at our special early bird booking rates. Early bird booking discounts, early bird prices and offers up to 45% are valid on bookings made before 1 October 2019. An early bird price is not the same as the lowest price guarantee. Roan reserves the right to change prices.

Changes made by the traveller
Changes that lead to an increase in the rental fee or where the rental fee remains the same are generally free of charge. You will be notified in writing if this change is possible. A fee of € 27 is charged for changes made within 28 days prior to departure, with the exception of changes that result in a lower sum. Such changes are considered partial cancellations and are subject to the cancellation conditions (see Payments and cancellations). Our reservation system is designed to ensure that our accommodations are occupied as much as possible. That is why it is sometimes not possible to extend or shorten an existing reservation (partial cancellation); you are required to reserve your accommodation for a pre-specified period. If your cancellation results in the accommodation being vacant, you may be charged the full sum over the period that has been shortened. We appreciate your understanding in this matter. Your reservation can be extended during your stay at the campsite if the desired accommodation is available. You are required to pay the campsite employee immediately for the extra nights. No claim can be made on early bird discounts or any other special deals applicable at that time.

Opening and closing dates for facilities, such as swimming pools and entertainment, are subject to change. Swimming shorts are not always allowed in the pool. Some campsites require guests to wear swimming caps in the pool. Both our brochure and website have been compiled with great care based on the information available in November 2018.

The travel provider reserves the right to use all photo and video material made available to the travel provider (via email or Facebook or any other form) for commercial purposes, such as websites, brochures, etc.

Pets
Pets are only allowed in our bungalow tents and Holiday lodge tents (not allowed on all campsites). The travel provider reserves the right to deny access to the campsite or accommodation if you bring a pet into an accommodation or to a campsite where they are not allowed. You are always required to bring your pet's vaccination certificate with you so that you can show it at the campsite, if required.  

Preferences
When you go on holiday, you may have various preferences. For example, if you go on holiday with two or more families, you may want accommodations located side-by-side, or you may prefer a shady pitch or a place near the pool. We kindly request you to state your preferences when making your booking. Naturally, we will do our utmost best to comply with your requests. However, we cannot guarantee this unless you have booked a ”side-by-side guarantee" or “pitch guarantee”(i.e. you have paid for your preference). 
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that we can comply with your request even if you have booked early, or if you have been a loyal customer for many years, unless a suitable tent or mobile home happens to be available on your arrival. If your request cannot be met, for whatever reason, you will not be notified beforehand. You may find that our accommodation pitches have changed compared to the previous year. 

Pitch guarantee
At some campsites it’s possible to choose a  pitch guarantee.
By choosing for our Pitch-Guarantee you will be assured of the best pitch of your choice. If you book before 1 October you only pay € 50 for your selected pitch on our campsites! After this period the cost for this option will be € 99,-. 
The Roan Pitch-Guarantee can be booked until 1st of March 2020.
A combination of the Pitch-Guarantee and the Next-door Guarantee is not possible.
A pitch guarantee is only possible for Mobile homes.

Side-by-side guarantee
At some campsites it’s possible to book a "side-by-side guarantee". The  costs are € 30 per accommodation (a maximum of 3 accommodations of the same type of accommodation and during the same holiday period). Please note that the term "side-by-side" also includes accommodations located opposite each other, back-to-back, diagonally opposite, etc. In other words, there must be no accommodation between you and the other family. If, for any reason, we are unable to honour this guarantee, we will pay you a refund of € 120 per accommodation. 

Complaints
We always do our utmost best to ensure that there is no cause for complaints. However, despite our efforts, you may have reason to lodge a legitimate complaint. If so, we kindly request you to contact our campsite representative and lodge your complaint as soon as possible. Our campsite representative will do everything in his/her power to resolve your problem. If you are not satisfied that your complaint has been dealt with adequately, you can call your booking agency. If you are not satisfied with the solution, you are requested to contact the campsite representative, write down your complaint and sign it on the spot. You are also required to submit your complaint to us in writing no later than two months after returning home. Please note that any complaints mentioned in our survey/guest review do not count as official letters of complaint, although naturally they will be read and noted. Complaints cannot be processed if they have been submitted after the above-mentioned deadline or if they have not been drawn up and signed in the presence of a campsite representative. If you have not followed the procedure stated above, then unfortunately, your complaint cannot be processed retrospectively. 

Sustainable Tourism
When compiling our trips, we take many aspects into account, such as the people, the environment, nature and culture, so that our holidays to attractive destinations are not only special for you, but also for future generations. Whatever holiday you are looking for, be it hiking around beautiful natural areas, immersing yourself in local culture, meeting new people or tasting delicious regional dishes, together, we will arrange unforgettable trips that will lead to better places and finer experiences. In doing so, we are making an important contribution to sustainable developments at the destination of your choice, not only for you, the traveller, but also for those people living there. 

Conclusion
The holidays offered in our brochure and on our website remain camping holidays, no matter how luxurious and comfortable they are. A particular note for guests who have never been on a camping trip before: our campsites are generally fully booked in July and August. If your top holiday priorities are privacy, peace and quiet, we recommend that you avoid these months. A holiday abroad means that you will be around people from different cultures with different customs, norms and values. For example, in Mediterranean countries, people generally enjoy a midday siesta, during which time the swimming pools and gates are closed. Please note that WIFI in Mediterranean countries may be slower than WIFI at home. These are important factors to bear in mind when choosing your holiday destination. Please note that you are responsible for any vaccinations that may be required.
