Rental

Book the accommodation

In order to guarantee you a quality welcome on the premises, any reservation of stay must be made at least 48 hours in advance.

If you book online, a deposit of 700.00€ will be requested; if your reservation is paid by check, we invite you to hand over this deposit check directly on site at the place welcoming you on site. This deposit is mandatory and your stay will not be possible without it. In the event of a breach of cleanliness or respect for the premises, Lys sans Frontières will take the opportunity to recover part of the deposit depending on the damage or damage notified during your departure. If no damage is found, it will be handed over to you at the end of your stay.
