Payment by Check: Upon making a reservation, you will be forwarded a rental agreement. We require a 50% deposit by check payable to Valencia Rentals and a completed reservation form at the time of the reservation. Please mail to our business address: 4345 Escondido Trail, Malibu, CA 90265. In addition, you will need to provide a current credit card number and authorize a charge for the security deposit.

The 50% balance by check is due 60 days prior to check in.

Once your signed rental agreement and payment are received, you will receive confirmation of your reservation via fax or e-mail and a check-in package with maps, key pick up instructions and other useful information to plan your trip.

Payment by Credit Card: In order to reduce the rental prices from the previous 2006-2010 rates, we no longer accept credit cards for the rental amount. The bank charges us as much as 9% fee for every transaction. For international customer or guests needing to pay by credit card, we will accept a credit card (Visa or MasterCard) with an 8% surcharge added to rental amount.

All rates are in US Funds.

Security Deposit:
The $1000 security deposit must be held on a valid credit card (Visa or MasterCard). The security deposit will be processed on your credit card 72 hours prior to your check-in. The property will be inspected by the property manager prior to your arrival and immediately following your departure. In addition, you will be asked to review and sign an inventory of the unit property upon your arrival. Tenants must report damage to their unit or any missing items immediately or it will be deemed that they are responsible for said damage. If the unit is found in appropriate order following your departure, the full value of the security deposit will be refunded within 72 hours following your check-out. In all other cases, the cost of any damages or missing items will be deducted from the security deposit before refunding the remaining balance.

Occupancy: The maximum occupancy is six adults or eight persons including children. The responsible adult signing the rental agreement and posting security deposit must be at least 25 years of age. No exceptions.

Check-in Time: 2:00 PM
Check-out Time: 11:00 AM

Unit Access: Each tenant will be provided with one set of keys upon check-in. The keys must be returned to the property management office upon check-out. If you decide to check-out while the property management office is closed, you can put your keys in the late box, which is located next to the front door of our office. Should the keys be lost by you, a charge of $100 will be deducted from the security deposit.

Late Arrival: We will be happy to leave a packet containing keys and directions to properties for any of our guests arriving after our office is closed, provided they have paid their balance in full. For your late check-in please contact us.

Cancellations/Refunds
Cancellation of a confirmed reservation in excess of 60 days prior to reservation date will result in the refund of 50% of the initial deposit (equal to 25% of agreed rent). All cancellations shall be subject to a penalty fee of 25% of agreed rent. Valencia Rentals must be notified in writing of a cancellation.

If a cancellation is made within 60 days of the reservation date, the advance payments will be held until the property is re-rented. If the rental period is not re-booked with a new party, the entire deposits received will be forfeited in total. Every effort will be made to re-rent the property following a cancellation.

No refunds will be made due to unfavorable weather, maintenance problems, inoperable appliances or faulty equipment, disruption of utility services or early departure due to a personal emergency.
