-----

This Rental Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into to be effective on the date of guest booking confirmation (the “Effective Date”), by and between Seward Vacation Stays LLC | Seward Properties LLC, whose mailing address is P.O. Box 3745 Seward, Alaska 99664 (the “Manager”), as agent of the owner of the Premises (the “Owner”), and you (the “Guest”).

By booking a reservation with Seward Vacation Stays in consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and therefore, the Manager and Guest agree as follows:

1. Rental of Premises; Term. Guest agrees to rent from Manager the reserved property from 4:00 p.m. Alaska Time to 11:00 a.m. Alaska Time on the confirmed booking dates (the “Term”). Guest understands and agrees that it cannot access the Premises for any reason, including parking or loading/unloading, prior to check-in time unless otherwise approved by Manager as Manager will be preparing the Premises for your arrival. Guest may not remain on the Premises after check-out time unless approved by Manager, and Guest understands they will be charged a minimum of a full day’s Rent if they remain on the Premises after expiration or termination of the reservation dates. Manager may remove all Guests and their personal belongings from the Property.

2. Rent. Guest will pay Manager the total sum of which includes the nightly rental rate, fees and taxes. Guest has reviewed and approved (collectively, “Rent”). Guest shall pay 100% of the Rent to Manager when booking.

All payments made to Manager shall be by credit card. Guest authorizes Manager to automatically charge Guest’s credit card for any payments owed pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation any portion of Rent due and repair costs and expenses.

Guest understands that there are no refunds or reductions to the Rent for early departures or late arrivals, no matter the cause.

3. Communication.
Guest consent to receive email, phone calls and/or text messages (SMS) from Seward Vacation Stays and its hosts and co-hosts.

4. Cancellation Policy.

a. Cancellation by Guest. Unless otherwise provided herein, if Guest cancels at least 14 days prior to the start of the Term, Manager will refund all pre-paid Rent to Guest, except the processing fees. Because Guest’s reservation precludes other rentals of the Premises, Guest agrees that if Guest cancels or shortens its stay less than 7 days prior to the start of the Term, for any reason, Rent is non-refundable to Guest. Guest understands and agrees that the processing fee is non-refundable regardless of when a cancellation is made and will not be returned to Guest under any circumstances.

b. Cancellations by Manager. Manager reserves the right to unilaterally terminate this Agreement for any reason within 24 hours of the Effective Date by providing notice of termination to Guest. After this 24-hour time period, Manager reserves the right to unilaterally terminate this Agreement should circumstances arise that are outside of Manager’s control, including without limitation the following circumstances: (i) if the Premises become unavailable prior to the Term due to structural damage, leaks, fire or other conditions that would make the Premises potentially unsafe or uninhabitable for Guest; (ii) sale of the Premises; (iii) transfer of the Premises out of Manager’s property management program; or (iv) force majeure. For the purposes of this Agreement, “force majeure” includes power outages, governmental or quasi-governmental laws, regulations, and orders, pandemics, including without limitation COVID-19, riots, war, natural disasters, or other circumstances of a like nature outside the control of Manager.

Manager will notify Guest of such circumstances as soon as is practicable. If Guest desires to be transferred to alternative premises, Manager will make reasonable efforts to relocate the Guest to a reasonably comparable property. In such case, the Guest agrees to pay any increase in rental charges, fees and taxes associated with the alternative premises should those premises normally rent for a greater rental fee. If Manager is unable to secure a reasonably comparable property for Guest, Manager will refund all pre-paid Rent to Guest and this Agreement shall automatically terminate. Said refund shall be the full extent of Manager’s liability to Guest in such circumstances, and Guest understands and agrees that Manager will not be responsible or liable for any other costs or expenses in connection with cancellations pursuant to this section.

5. Security Deposit. The purpose of a refundable security deposit is for general property upkeep and to repair minor, accidental damage caused by Guest or Rental Party during the Term. Whether damage is considered minor and accidental is in the sole discretion of the Manager, and Guest by booking the property below acknowledges the same. If the Manager determines the damage is accidental and minor and Guest timely reports said damage to Manager (which, at a minimum, means reporting prior to departure), the Security Deposit in part or in whole will cover such minor, accidental damage. Timely reporting of any damage during the Term is critical. Guest understands that in the event damage exceeds minor accidental damage, Guest will be responsible for those amounts above the Security Deposit Fee.

6. Channel Terms. If you are booking through a third-party marketing channel, your booking may be subject to that channel’s own terms and conditions (“Channel Terms”). If any provision of applicable Channel Terms differs from the Terms in this Agreement, the provision of the Channel Terms will control.

7. Use and Occupancy of the Premises; House Rules.

a. Guest shall use and occupy the Premises in a careful, safe and proper manner and in compliance with all laws, regulations, orders, covenants, and rules applicable to the Premises. Guest agrees not to use or permit the use of the Premises for any purpose prohibited by law or for any purpose deemed extra hazardous or which would make void or voidable any insurance on the Premises or which would cause or be likely to cause damage to the Premises.

b. Guest agrees not to damage or deface the Premises in any manner. Guest shall immediately report any loss or damage to Manager. Guest is responsible for all losses and damage to the Premises and property therein during the Term, and Manager is authorized to charge Guest for the cost of all repairs.

c. “Quiet hours” for the Premises are from 10:00pm until 8:00am Alaska Time. Please keep noise to a minimum during this period and be respectful of surrounding neighbors.

d. Only maximum amount of property guest occupancy are permitted to occupy the Premises during the Term. The authorized occupants may be referred to herein as the “Rental Party”. Exceeding this occupancy limitation is strictly prohibited. All persons in the Rental Party shall comply with this Agreement, and Guest agrees to provide a copy of this Agreement to all members of the Rental Party. If Manager discovers additional occupants beyond the maximum permitted, this shall be a default and, in addition to any other remedies herein, Guest authorizes Manager to charge $100/per each additional,

Best House I've stayed at in Seward!! Highly Recommend
If you need to book a House in Seward look no further!! Absolutely loved this property. Originally booked for 8 people. A family emergency came up and 4 family members could not join us and property managers offered what they could with the change. Very thoughtful and considerate hosts. House was super clean and comfortable! 2 amazing bathrooms, one with good natural light and a window to open. Amazing views out of windows! Nice roomy backyard with a fire pit. Nice big TV that can swivel to watch from kitchen table or living room. Beds are super comfy with super soft sheets. Ceiling fans and extra fans were a huge plus. House rules very reasonable and clean up rules also very doable! One showered is pretty small but was usable for myself. Other showered is huge and beautifully finished. Great location in town. Nice roomy driveway for vehicles. Can't say enough about the place. We really loved it!

Family Alaskan Vacation
Our stay was awesome! It started shortly after we booked and were contacted by the owners offering any help with things to do during our stay in Seward. The recommendations and connections were spot on. The house was perfect for our large family. We spent two weeks in Alaska and Seward was everyone’s favorite by a wide margin.

We loved our stay at Mountainview getaway in Seward! We had a party of 9 and fit comfortably in this well appointed and clean home. The location is absolutely perfect--a quick walk to the harbor, shops, restaurants, and the downtown Seward area. Views from the picture windows were also amazing. We cannot wait to come back!

Nice location but...
The property was clean and in a great location. The beds were comfortable and had nice linens. The kitchen was well appointed with all the necessities. Our issues were with the stairs and seating. Access to the house is up several stairs. This would not be a problem except there were no handrails. When you first enter the house there is a small landing with stairs going both up and down. Again, there were no handrails. The stairs were not carpeted, but had small stair pads on each step. These were not secured to the floor at all and moved as you stepped on them. It was rather precarious going up and down. If a guest is mobility challenged, this is not the house for you. The furniture in the living room was all VERY low. It appears that the legs have been removed on the sofa and loveseat. It made getting up from those places very difficult for everyone in our group of 60+ year olds. The master bathroom shower was difficult at best. It was the size of a small cruise ship shower and difficult to use without getting water on the floor. This is a great property for folks with no mobility issues, although it was not ideal for our group.

Wonderful picture windows. Pre-cruise two night stay. The house was centrally located and walkable to everything. Choose your free shuttle stops wisely if toting big luggage and tip the driver. Two in our crew did all day memorable kayaking through Kenai Fyords. Lots to do, see, explore. Great coffee at Ressurect Art. Enjoyed Thai at Woody’s. Loved the Sea Life Center.

Absolutely smooth check-in and check-out process. Things were in order as advertised and communicated. House was very clean and all necessary items were available and in place. Cozy house, yet a lot of space for a large party or family to be accommodated. Excellent staff and prompt in their communication. Just be prepared for a smaller shower in the main bed room. Overall, we enjoyed the house and the space.
