What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device that store information about your visit. They help the site work and let us improve the service and your experience.

We use cookies only as described below. If we add new cookie types we will update this page.

Strictly necessary (required)

These cookies enable core site functions. They are required to use the booking engine, log in, maintain sessions, and submit forms. Disabling these cookies may prevent the site from working correctly.

Examples:

  • WordPress session and login cookies used for site administration and user authentication.
  • Temporary cookies used during the booking process.

Performance and analytics

We use analytics cookies to understand site usage, measure performance, and improve content and features.

Providers we use:

  • Google Analytics (used to collect anonymous visit statistics).
  • Microsoft Clarity (heatmaps and session replay for site optimization).

These services may place cookies to measure visits, page views, time on site, and navigation paths. You can opt out of Google Analytics and customize Google Display Network ads via Google settings. Microsoft provides its own privacy controls; see Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Functionality and preferences

These cookies remember your preferences and choices (for example language or search filters) so the site presents a tailored experience when you return.

Marketing and remarketing

We, and our advertising partners, may use cookies to deliver ads relevant to your interests and to measure ad campaigns.

Providers we use:

  • Google Ads remarketing.
  • Microsoft Advertising.

These cookies allow us to show ads to users who previously visited the site and to optimize ad delivery. You can opt out or control ads via the Google Ads Settings and Microsoft ad settings pages.

WordPress-specific cookies

Where applicable:

  • Comment cookies: if you leave a comment we may store your name, email, and website in a cookie for one year to make future comments easier.
  • Login cookies: used to keep you logged in; durations depend on your selection (e.g., “Remember Me”).
  • Editor cookies: temporary cookies for editors when creating content.

Third-party cookies and embedded content

Pages may embed third-party content (maps, videos). Those third parties may set their own cookies when you interact with that content. We do not control those cookies; review the third party’s cookie and privacy statements.

Do Not Track

We support Do Not Track (DNT). If your browser sends a DNT signal we will respect it where technically possible. Note that many analytics and advertising services do not honor DNT.

We will present a cookie banner or settings control where required by law. You may accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookie categories. Essential cookies remain active to allow the site to function.

If you choose to reject non-essential cookies some features (personalized content, remarketing, analytics) may be reduced or unavailable.

How to manage or disable cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Links for major browsers:

To opt out of Google Analytics for all websites use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For Google Ads opt-out and ad settings use Google Ads Settings. For Microsoft tools see Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Retention periods

Cookie lifetimes vary by purpose and provider. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Analytics and remarketing cookies typically persist for months. If you need a detailed list of cookies and retention periods set by our site or our service providers, contact us, and we will provide the current list.

Additional notes about our platform

  • Listings and booking automations may set functional cookies via our property management software.
  • If you need the exact names and durations of cookies used on a specific page or property listing, request the cookie inventory, and we will share it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookies Policy to reflect changes in technology, services, or legal requirements. We will post the revised policy on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
