The rates listed on this site are provided by individual hotels or vacation rental management companies that manage vacation rental properties and are represented in their local currency. A “vacation rental property” is defined as a home, house, villa, condo, apartment, townhouse, or other residences managed by a vacation rental property management company that is booked through the respective toll-free dedicated vacation rental reservation line, the appropriate website, or through the vacation rental management companies’ dedicated reservations phone number. Currency may be converted at this site. However, this service is provided for convenience only. We base international currency conversion on publicly available sources, so we do not warrant or guarantee that conversion rates are accurate or will be the same at the time you pay the hotel. Your payments to hotels or vacation rental management companies on this site are matters to be resolved solely between you and the hotel or vacation rental management company, and we do not assume any liability or involvement in disputes you may have with a hotel or vacation rental management company. Hotels or vacation rental management companies may change the price and availability of rooms listed on this site without notice.

You agree not to use the information on this site to advertise or solicit anyone to buy or sell any products or services (directly or indirectly), including but not limited to the hotel or vacation rental management company reservation services, without our express written approval.

You agree that you will only make legitimate reservations in good faith for use by you and your invited guests only and not for other purposes, including reselling, impermissibly assigning or posting on third-party websites, or making speculative, false, or fraudulent reservations, or any reservation in anticipation of demand.

You are prohibited from reselling any hotel rooms booked through choicehotels.com. In the event that Ábitta learns of the resale of rooms, all reservations booked in the reseller’s name may be canceled at Ábitta’s sole discretion. Vacation rental management companies only offer entire homes, resort units, condos, apartments, cabins, or villas for rent. See the Vacation Rentals tab on this site for further details.

CONTACT BY TELEPHONE AND TEXT MESSAGE

You understand that by releasing your telephone number to Ábitta, you are providing Ábitta and any Choice-affiliated entity or third-party covered under these Terms of Use, your consent to be contacted at the telephone number provided, using any technology for any non-marketing purpose. To avoid doubt, you understand and agree that the telephone equipment and technology utilized by us do not have the capacity to randomly or sequentially generate telephone numbers or send calls or text messages without human intervention. Still, you nevertheless agree to receive autodialed calls, text messages, or prerecorded voice calls to any telephone number you provide to us at any time.

You also acknowledge that when you make a reservation with the “Text confirmation” feature selected, you, and not Ábitta, will initiate a text message to the telephone number you provided. You are fully responsible for these text messages that you initiate. You further understand and agree that if you make a reservation with the “Text confirmation” feature unselected, this will not otherwise limit your consent to be contacted by telephone, as detailed in the paragraph above. You understand and agree that any attempt to contact you concerning the status of your reservation or your stay is not a marketing communication.

You further agree that if you wish to opt out of telephonic communications with Ábitta and/or Choice, you will first follow the opt-out instructions provided by Ábitta and/or Choice, if any, before attempting to opt out by other reasonable means. You further warrant and represent that you will not provide to Ábitta any telephone number that is not assigned to you and that if you obtain a new telephone number, you will promptly notify Ábitta, including, when applicable, updating your Choice Privileges Membership information.

Limitation of Liability

All hotels franchised under Choice’s brands are independently owned and operated. All vacation rentals listed on this site are independently operated and maintained by a network of vacation rental management companies, and Choice is not a party to any rental or other agreement or transactions between users and the vacation rental management companies, even if this site allows or facilitates the booking of a vacation rental or provides other ancillary products or services. Any part of an actual or potential agreement or transaction between a user and a vacation rental management company, including the quality, condition, safety, or legality of the properties advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings (including the content thereof or any review relating to any property), the ability of a vacation rental management company to rent a vacation property or the ability of users to contract for properties are solely the responsibility of each user. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to enter into one or more separate agreements, waivers, or terms and conditions before making a booking or purchasing a product or service and may place additional restrictions on your booking, product, or service.

Choice expressly excludes any liability for any act or omission of a franchised hotel, vacation rental, and vacation rental management company, including negligence and willful misconduct.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE (DIRECT, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, ACTUAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPT, OR OTHERWISE) RESULTING FROM ACCESS TO OR ANY USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE OR ACCESS, OR RELIANCE ON, OR FUNCTIONING OF, THIS SITE, OR RESULTING FROM ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE CONTENT OF THIS SITE, REGARDLESS OF THE BASIS UPON WHICH LIABILITY IS CLAIMED, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OF DAMAGE.

The information and content on this site may contain technical inaccuracies and typographical errors, including inaccuracies related to pricing or availability applicable to your transaction. Ábitta shall not assume responsibility or liability for any such inaccuracies, errors, or omissions and shall have no obligation to honor reservations or information affected by such inaccuracies.

WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT THIS SITE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR THAT IT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, NOR DO WE MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THIS SITE OR AS TO THE ACCURACY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THIS SITE. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ANY CONTENT OR SOFTWARE DOWNLOADED OR OTHERWISE OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THIS SITE IS DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND THAT YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE DOWNLOAD OF SUCH CONTENT.

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE OR OUR FRANCHISEES OR RELATED PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF INFORMATION) ARISING OUT OF ACCESS TO OR THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE CONTENT OR DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE ON THIS SITE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Indemnification

You agree, at your expense, to indemnify and hold us, as well as our officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, distributors, franchisees, vacation rental management companies, and licensees harmless from and against any judgment, losses, deficiencies, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of counsel selected by Ábitta) incurred in connection with or arising from any claim, demand, suit, action, or proceeding arising out of your breach of these Terms of Use or in connection with your use of this site or any product or service related to this site.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

We create and control this site in Puerto Rico, U.S.A. Accordingly, Puerto Rico governs these Terms of Use without regard to the principles of Puerto Rican conflicts of law. In the event that there is a dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Ábitta, or between you and any third-party acting on Ábitta’s behalf, arising out of or relating to your use of the website, your reservation or stay at any Choice-affiliated hotel, federal or state statutory claims, common law claims, these Terms, Ábitta’s Privacy Policy, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, such dispute, claim or controversy will be determined by arbitration in Condado, PR before one arbitrator. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS. For claims greater than $250,000, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced will apply. For claims less than or equal to $250,000, the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced will apply. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of Puerto Rico, exclusive of its conflict or choice of law rules. Nothing in this paragraph will preclude the parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in this paragraph with respect to applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) will govern any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms. 

To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the parties agrees that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. Suppose, for any reason, a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration. In that case, each party knowingly and irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. The appointed arbitrator may award monetary damages and any other remedies allowed by the state law designated above. In making his, hers, X, and their determination, the arbitrator will not have the authority to modify any term or provision of these Terms. The arbitrator will deliver a reasoned written decision with respect to the dispute (the “Award”) to each party, who will promptly act in accordance with the Award. Any Award (including interim or final remedies) may be confirmed or enforced in any court having jurisdiction, including any court having jurisdiction over either party or its assets. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on the parties and will not be subject to appeal or review. Each party will advance one-half of the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, the costs of the court reporter’s attendance at the arbitration hearing, and the costs of the arbitration facility. In any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms, the arbitrators will award to the prevailing party, if any, costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with that aspect of its claims or defenses on which it prevails, and any opposing awards of costs and attorneys’ fees awards will be offset. The parties will maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding, the hearing, and the Award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits or except as may be necessary for connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, or confirmation of an Award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by any applicable law. Any documentary or other evidence produced in any arbitration hereunder will be treated as confidential by the parties, witnesses, and arbitrators. It will not be disclosed to any third person (other than witnesses or experts) except as required by any applicable law or except if such evidence was obtained from the public domain or is otherwise obtained independently of the arbitration.

Waiver/Severability

The waiver by either party of a breach or right under these Terms of Use will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or right. Suppose any provision of these Terms of Use is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction. In that case, such provision shall be severed from the remainder of these Terms of Use, which will otherwise remain in full force and effect.

Reservation of Rights

Any rights not expressly granted to you herein are reserved to us.

Translations

As a service to our customers, we make these Terms of Use available in several different languages. In the event of any discrepancies between the various translations of these Terms of Use, the English version of the Terms of Use is the authoritative one.
