The complete set of rules and regulations can be found on the Owners
page. This is an abridged version.
REGULAR TIME RESERVATIONS
1.
How many nights of use am I entitled to?
You are entitled to reserve seven (7) nights/days for each PIU
(week) you own, within the Anniversary Year, which is based on the recording
date of your Grant Deed. This does not include Bonus Time, which is discussed
in more detail below. Each PIU is entitled to just two weekend
nights year (Friday and/or Saturday, and Sunday, if a holiday wekend) per anniversary year, and up to seven
week day nights (Sunday through Thursday), up to a maximum of seven nights.
2. What
is my Anniversary Year?
It is the one-year period beginning on the date your original deed
to your Proprietary Interest was recorded. For example, if your Proprietary
Interest Deed is recorded on July 10th, your Anniversary Year will be July 10th
of the current year through July 9th of the following year.
3. May I carry over unused nights to the next Anniversary Year?
No. If you cannot use all your nights you should consider donating them to a charity or banking them with an affiliated Exchange Company. The responsibility for making and following through on all such arrangements is exclusively yours.
4. May I
request a specific Unit in the 45 rooms of the Club Donatello?
Yes. You will be assigned a Unit by the Club Reservations Team
based on availability of units.
5. May
I provide the Club Donatello in advance with a desired profile of my Club Room preferences,
such as location and types of beds?
Yes, you can let us know at anytime in advance if you special
requests. Requests will be satisfied based on availability.
6. How
much advance notice must I give for my reservation request?
A reservation request for Regular Time must be received less than
one year in advance of the first night requested. Requests received earlier
than one year in advance cannot be considered, since that is in advance of your
Anniversary Year eligibility.
7. What might
prevent me from obtaining a confirmed reservation?
A unit might not be available for the night you requested because The
Club may be fully booked, or there may be rooms out of order. If your reservation
is for a period of time which starts at least 1 week after your request is received, you will have priority over requests from other
Owners for Bonus Time. If you seek a reservation for a period which starts less
than 1 week after your request is received, then your
reservation request and any Bonus Time requests will both be treated on a
first-come, first-served basis. Your reservation request will not be confirmed
nor will occupancy of a Unit be permitted if you are delinquent in the payment
of any amounts owed to the Association, or your use rights have been suspended
by the Board.
8. How will I
know if my reservation request has been confirmed?
Reservation requests will be confirmed by mail, by
telephone, FAX or E-mail. In any case, you will receive a "Reservation
Confirmation Number", and you are responsible for keeping this
information and bringing it with you when you check-in.
9. Do I have to reserve a whole week at a time?
No.
10. If I do not reserve all of my 7
nights/days consecutively, may I make a subsequent reservation request for my
unused
time?
Yes. If you do not reserve all of your 7 nights/days consecutively
in one reservation request, you may make one or more reservation requests for
the balance of your time. Except for weekend use (which includes either a
Friday or Saturday night, or a Sunday night if part of a holiday weekend), you
may have more than one reservation outstanding at a time. For weekend use, you
may have only one reservation request outstanding within your Anniversary Year,
as the period of time you purchased for the 7 days/nights includes only 1
weekend. If reservation requests for weekend use exceed availability, the Club
Donatello Reservations Department will give preference to those Owners who have
not yet secured a weekend reservation.
BONUS TIME RESERVATIONS
Subject to availability, and the administrative discretion of the Club
Management, you may be entitled to reserve and occupy a Unit during one or more
additional time periods beyond your Regular Owners Time. This is known as Bonus Time.
Weekend and/or Weekday Bonus Time may be available only if time has not been
reserved by other Owners eligible to reserve Regular Time or Bonus Time, and you have used all of
your Regular Time.
All Bonus Time reservations require a credit card guarantee to be provided at
the time of the reservation confirmation to cover the required charges for use
of Bonus Time, and/or any penalties in cases of late cancellations as described
further in the questions and answers below.
1. How do I
request Bonus Time?
Subject to availability and a confirmation that you have used all of your
Regular Time, you may request a reservation using Bonus Time.
2. How
much advance notice must I give?
A reservation request for Bonus Time must be at least 1 week prior
to the first night/day of the requested visit. If less than one week, call the
Club Reservations Department to see if there have been any late cancellations.
3. How
will I know if my Bonus Time reservation request has been granted?
Bonus Time requests will be confirmed by the Club Reservations
Department in the same manner as for Regular Time reservation confirmations.
4. Is
there a limit on the number of nights/days of Bonus Time
use?
No, but Bonus Time cannot be guaranteed for more
than two (2) consecutive nights.
5.
Does Bonus Time affect any other benefits/policies regarding use of time at the
Club Donatello?
Yes. While using Bonus Time, valet parking charges are at the
regular posted rates for the Donatello Garage, and are not at the Regular Time
discounted rate.
6. Can other
Guests occupy my reserved Unit during my Bonus Time?
Yes, if you accompany them personally and occupy the unit with them. No, they may not occupy the Unit without your
presence for the duration of the Bonus Time reserved.
7. Other than availability, what might
prevent me from securing a confirmation of a Bonus Time reservation?
Your Bonus Time reservation request will not be confirmed if any one of
these following conditions exists: (a) you have not used all of your Regular
Owners time; (b) you are delinquent in the payment of any amounts owed the
Association; or (c) if your Owner's rights have been suspended by the
Association.
8. Is there a
penalty for cancellation of a Bonus Time reservation?
No, if you cancel your Bonus Time reservation at least 72 hours in advance
of the scheduled Check-in Time (3 PM).
Yes. If you cancel your Bonus Time reservation less than 72 hours in advance of
the scheduled Check-in Time (3 PM). Your credit card will be charged the daily
Bonus Time maintenance fee for the total number of Bonus Time nights/days that
you originally reserved, less any days that we are able to fill the room for
the amount of time of your original reservation.
