Where do I collect the keys

Keys are to be collected from LJ Hooker Kingscliff office at 4/106 Marine Parade Kingscliff. We have an after-hours keysafe available if you aren’t able to make it when our friendly reception staff are here in business hours.

What suburbs do you have holiday rentals in?

Our portfolio ranges from Kingscliff to Pottsville, including Casuarina, Cabarita/Bogangar & Hastings Point.

What are your opening hours?

We are open 9am-5pm Monday to Friday.

9am to 1pm Saturday and closed Sundays and Public Holidays.

During Daylight Savings period, we operate on Daylight Savings Time.

How can I book accommodation at the best price?

The best way to book accommodation would be direct through us as we offer the cheapest rate compared to third party sites who charge additional fees. Repeat guests also receive a discount for customer loyalty.

How does the security bond work?

We process a pre-authorisation on your supplied card on the day of arrival or on Fridays for weekend arrivals. The amount is $500 or $1000 depending on the level of property.

A pre-authorisation on a credit card is a temporary hold placed on funds to verify cardholder payment capability and to ensure sufficient funds. You will not see a ‘refund’ as the hold is not a charge/transaction. It will be automatically released by your bank within 5-10 business days from the date of the pre-auth.

Is linen included?

All linen is included in your holiday rental, excluding beach towels. Each bed will be made with top and bottom sheet with pillowcases, plus bath mat, hand towel and face washer per bathroom, plus one bath towel per guest and tea towels for the kitchen. Sofa linen is available upon request only and is not automatically supplied.

What cleaning is included?

Included in your total booking price is the departure clean. This is a general clean and charges apply for excessive cleaning.

Mid stay cleans are not included, but are sometimes available in quieter seasons via direct arrangement with the cleaner.

Can I check in early and/or check out late?

Early check ins and late check outs are subject to availability. Early check ins are available from 11am and late check outs are available until 1pm. The charge is $50-$70 per special check in/out depending on the level of property. Should you wish to come earlier or stay longer, an additional night would need to be booked.

We can only confirm these 1-2 days before the requested special check in/out. Please contact our office at this time to check and confirm.

When do I need to make payment?

If you have booked on a 3rd party site such as Airbnb or booking.com, please consult your confirmation emails for information as the terms are different on these sites.

If you have booked direct, the deposit payment (50%) is due within 48 hours of making the booking and the balance is due 30 days prior to arrival. If you are arriving in less than 30 days from the date of booking, then full payment is due at 48hrs. If we do not receive payment from you by the due date we will process payment on the card on file. If there is a failed payment we reserve the right to cancel the booking.

How do I access keys in the KeySafe after-hours/when you are closed?

The key safe is located to the left of our front office doors at 4/106 Marine Parade Kingscliff.

You will receive either an SMS or email to your nominated contact method, which will contain a pin code for the safe.

You will only be able to use this pin from check in time.

On the bottom right-hand side of the key safe is a small screen, enter the pin code here.  Your keys will then be dispensed to you.

We are only able to hold 1 set of keys in the key safe per property, if you would like a second set please visit our office during opening hours.

If you are experiencing problems with accessing the key safe, please call our emergency after hours number on 0413 056 402.
