Covid – 19 Policy

Due to the constant changing advice regarding travel restrictions within Victoria, in the event of travel restrictions enforced by the Victorian State which prohibit people to travel within Victoria (Melbourne Metropolitan Area – Mornington Peninsula) at the time of their booking, our COVID-19 Policy will allow MyCoastline to work with you to find alternative travel times or a full refund less $200 administration fee.

 

Please note that if travel restrictions are eased which allow only a group from one household to travel to our properties and you are travelling with a group from different households which is not permitted, we can only offer a change of dates.

Any requests to cancel or amend bookings outside the COVID-19 Cancelation Policy will be referred to the MyCoastline Terms and Conditions – Cancellation, Amendment, and Refund Policy.

 

Please note that direct bookings on 3rd party booking platforms (i.e. Stayz, Airbnb, HomeAway, etc.) may differ and are bound by the policy included in the 3rd party booking platforms.
