CANCELLATION POLICIES

Late cancellations have a significant impact on us due to our Island location and seasonal nature. Vacancies caused by early departures are considered to be cancellations and full payment of your reserved stay is expected. 

Reservations for stays arriving between June 25th and the Saturday of Labor Day weekend of your reservation year have the following administrative fees and policies:

  • Fully refundable if canceled by February 1 of the reservation year
  • For cancellations made by May 1, of the reservation year, there is a $300.00 administrative fee per reservation
  • Cancellations made thereafter of your reservation year are non-refundable for any reason unless (1) cancellations are received in writing by our reservations office and (2) if we are able to re-book your reservation over the entire duration of the cancelled reservation and receive the same full payment as you paid for your accommodation and the resort is completely sold out for all the nights of your reserved stay, we will issue you a full refund less a 10% administrative fee.

If the boats are operating to/from Cape Cod at any point during your day of arrival, we expect guests to arrive as expected whether or not they planned to arrive by boat or plane. If all boat transportation to/from Cape Cod has been canceled on a given day, with no trips operated on a given day, then a credit toward a future stay – or refund – will be issued for that night’s lodging. Once transportation services resume, guests are expected to arrive for the balance of their reservation. Travel delays, air cancellations, missed connections, medical or any other travel issues will not merit any credits or refunds. These potential unforeseen problems are best addressed with travel insurance, as mentioned above. In the unlikely event of a hurricane or severe weather conditions, refunds will only be considered after the storm and only if two or more nights are unable to be occupied after the storm
