STANDARD TERMS & CONDITIONS (NEW - EFFECTIVE JANUARY 7, 2008)

Ste. Anne’s is an “all inclusive destination spa”, which means that reservations are always required and must be made in advance.  As such, we do not attract or accept “walk-in” business and all of our services are sold as part of an overall package designed to provide a relaxing experience in an exclusive setting.  We offer two types of packages; Day Spa and Overnight.  By all inclusive, we mean that rooms (overnight bookings only), pre-booked spa treatments and group activities and classes, meals, gratuities and use of the facilities are included in the quoted rate.  Ste. Anne's facilities are not open to members of the public who do not have a reservation for one of our packages.  

Due to our rural location, we offer a range of prearranged transportation options, and encourage our guests to take advantage of these alternatives, not only to maximize the relaxing benefits of your stay with us, but also to ensure safe arrival in inclement weather.  In order to provide the resources, deliver and maintain the facilities and services required for such an experience, the following policies apply to cancellations and rescheduling of reservations:

• At the time of booking, a non-refundable deposit equal to 50% of the total value of the package and services being booked is required to confirm and hold your reservation;
• A confirmation letter or email will be sent to the person making the reservation within 48 hours of the deposit being taken, at which point the reservation will be considered confirmed;
• Once a reservation has been confirmed, any date changes will result in a service charge equal to 15% of the deposit to cover the administrative costs associated with re-booking. The balance of the deposit will be held for up to one year, during which time it can be applied to another booking or a gift certificate purchase. Any deposit that is unused after one year will be lost.
• Failure to show up for a reservation without providing 72 hours notice of a cancellation, arriving a day or more late, or leaving a day or more early will result in forfeiture of the entire deposit. Missed spa treatments will be billed to the credit card number on file at the full price.
