ACCOMMODATION AND BOOKING CONDITIONS
for contracts concluded from June 26, 2023

Dear Guest,
We appreciate your interest in booking accommodation with AZUR Freizeit GmbH, located at Rohrackerstr.272, D - 70329 Stuttgart, or CRV s.r.l., located at Via Vantone 45, 25074 Idro (BS), Italy, hereinafter referred to as the "Accommodation Provider." In the event of a guest accommodation contract, the Accommodation Provider will act as your responsible service provider, and AZUR Freizeit GmbH will act as your intermediary, abbreviated as "AZUR," putting all their efforts and experience into making your stay as enjoyable as possible. To ensure clarity regarding your rights and obligations as a guest and the rights and obligations of the Accommodation Provider, the following accommodation conditions will be agreed upon between you and the Accommodation Provider in the form of the following guest accommodation conditions. These guest accommodation conditions, when validly agreed upon, will form part of the guest accommodation contract concluded between you and the Accommodation Provider in the event of a booking. Therefore, please read these guest accommodation conditions carefully before making your booking.

1. Role of AZUR; Scope of these Contract Conditions
1.1. AZUR operates the respective websites or acts as the publisher of catalogs, brochures, or other printed materials and online platforms, explicitly identified as such.
1.2. If AZUR arranges a combination of accommodation and other services provided by the Accommodation Provider (e.g., accommodation with meals), and the other services provided by the Accommodation Provider do not constitute a significant portion of the total value of this combination of services and are not a substantial feature of the Accommodation Provider's or AZUR's service offering, nor are they advertised as such, AZUR only acts as an intermediary for accommodation services.
1.3. As an intermediary, AZUR assumes the role of a provider of linked travel services to the extent that the legal requirements of § 651w of the German Civil Code (BGB) for offering linked travel services by AZUR are met.
1.4. Without prejudice to the obligations of AZUR as a provider of linked travel services (in particular, the provision of the legally required form sheet and the implementation of customer money protection in the event of AZUR's debt collection activities) and the legal consequences in case of non-compliance with these legal obligations, AZUR is neither a tour operator nor a contracting party to the guest accommodation contract concluded in the event of a booking if the conditions specified in b) or c) are met. Therefore, AZUR is not liable for the Accommodation Provider's information regarding prices and services, the provision of services itself, or any defects in the services. Any liability of AZUR arising from the intermediary agreement and legal provisions, particularly mandatory provisions on teleservices and electronic commerce, remains unaffected.
1.5. These terms and conditions apply, when validly agreed upon, to guest accommodation contracts in which the basis for the booking is the catalogs or accommodation offers issued by AZUR or presented on its websites.

Conclusion of Contract
2.1. The following applies to all types of bookings:
a) The basis for the offer from the accommodation provider and the guest's booking are the description of the accommodation and the supplementary information in the booking basis (e.g., classification explanations) as far as they are available to the guest at the time of booking.
b) In accordance with legal obligations, the guest is informed that, according to legal regulations (§ 312g para. 2 sentence 1 no. 9 German Civil Code), there is no right of withdrawal for guest accommodation contracts concluded by distance selling (letters, catalogs, telephone calls, faxes, emails, messages sent via mobile telecommunications services (SMS), as well as radio and telemedia). Instead, the statutory regulations regarding the non-use of rental services (§ 537 German Civil Code) apply (see also Clause 6 of these guest accommodation terms and conditions). However, a right of withdrawal exists if the guest accommodation contract has been concluded outside of business premises, unless the oral negotiations on which the conclusion of the contract is based were conducted at the consumer's prior request; in the latter case, there is also no right of withdrawal.
c) In the case of bookings by clubs, travel groups, associations, companies, authorities, and institutions, the contracting party of the guest accommodation contract and the payer is exclusively the respective organization, not the individual guest, unless they make the booking explicitly as the authorized representative on behalf of and with the power of attorney from the guest.
d) For customers booking on behalf of accompanying travelers (except in the cases of Clause 2.1 c), they are liable for all contractual obligations of the guests for whom the booking is made, as if they were their own obligations, provided they have assumed this obligation through explicit and separate declaration. Such customers or contracting parties booking for accompanying guests are hereinafter collectively referred to as "customer."
2.2. The following applies to bookings made orally, by telephone, in writing, by email, or by fax:
a) By making the booking, the guest gives AZUR the agency commission and authorizes AZUR to submit a binding offer to book the services of the accommodation provider on behalf of the guest, including these agency terms and conditions.
b) The contract is concluded when the booking confirmation is received by the guest as the acceptance declaration from AZUR as the representative on behalf of the accommodation provider. It does not require any particular form, so oral and telephone confirmations are legally binding for both the guest and the accommodation provider. In the usual case, if the booking confirmation is given orally or by telephone, AZUR as the representative of the accommodation provider will also send a written copy of the booking confirmation to the guest. However, if the guest makes an oral or telephone booking and receives a corresponding binding oral or telephone confirmation from AZUR as the representative of the accommodation provider, the contract is also legally binding, even if the additional written copy of the booking confirmation is not received by the guest.
c) If, at the guest's request, AZUR as the representative of the accommodation provider submits a special offer, this represents a binding contract offer on behalf of the accommodation provider to the guest, deviating from the above provisions, provided it does not involve non-binding information about available accommodations and prices. In these cases, the contract is concluded without requiring a corresponding confirmation from AZUR as the representative of the accommodation provider if the guest accepts this offer within any specified deadline mentioned in the offer, without restrictions, changes, or additions, through an explicit declaration, down payment, final payment, or use of the accommodation.

2.3. For online bookings made through a website that displays availability and the total booking price online, the following applies to the conclusion of the contract:

a) Offers on AZUR's website are not offers in the legal sense of a binding contract offer.
b) After the customer has entered their desired services (travel period, number of participants, travel dates, etc.), the online booking process displays information to the customer regarding the services and prices of the available capacities of the accommodation provider.
c) Based on this information, the customer can then, if necessary after checking availability, submit a binding contract offer for forwarding to the accommodation provider by completing a registration form with the customer's contact details. This is done by completing the registration form described above by the customer.
d) By clicking the button "book now, payment required," the guest authorizes AZUR to act as an agent and to submit a binding offer on behalf of the guest for booking the services of the host, including these agency terms and conditions. The guest will then receive immediate confirmation of the receipt of their booking electronically.
e) The submission of the contract offer by clicking the button "book now, payment required" does not entitle the guest to the conclusion of an accommodation contract corresponding to their booking details. The accommodation provider or AZUR as its representative is free to decide whether to accept the guest's contract offer or not.
f) The contract is concluded when the booking confirmation from AZUR as the representative on behalf of the accommodation provider is received by the guest.

9.1. AZUR and the accommodation provider inform the guest with regard to the Law on Alternative Dispute Resolution that neither AZUR nor the accommodation provider currently participate in voluntary consumer dispute resolution.
