Frequently Asked Questions


How often are the agendas updated?

The agendas are updated instantly once we receive a reservation. The website is showing the accurate availability of each place.

What is included in the rental cost? Do I have to pay for electricity, water or internet?

The Rent includes all expenses and charges relating to the rental of the Object for the agreed period, including all tourist tax owed.

Are there agency fees?

No

What if I have to vacate early?

The Reservation and the Lease can be cancelled by the Tenant no later than 2 months (date) prior to the start of the Lease (the date on which the Tenant takes possession of the Object), subject to payment of a penalty of 10% (ten per cent) of the total Rent amount for the chosen rental period, for eShortRental Sarl’s expenses.

In the event that the Tenant cancels less than 2 months (date) prior to the start of the Lease, the entire Rent for the desired rental period will be payable, unless the Object can be re-leased for an identical rent.

In the latter case, the Tenant will be reimbursed an amount not exceeding that of the new Rent actually collected for the rental period of his/her Reservation, minus 10% (ten per cent) of the total Rent amount, for eShortRental Sarl’s expenses.

What if I want to extend my stay? Do you offer long term unfurnished accommodations?

The Object is offered for rental, within the limits set by the Owner as a holiday apartment, for a fixed period not exceeding 3 months.

A type of use and/or a rental period other than those specified above for a holiday home remain permissible, subject to the Tenant’s express request and the conclusion of a standard home lease pursuant to Swiss law.

How do I get back my deposit and when?

Subject to the outgoing inventory of fixtures and confirmation that no damage attributable to the Tenant has been incurred, the guarantee will be released to the Tenant within 30 days following the end of the Lease.
