Last updated: 3 September 2026<\/p>\n

These terms apply to stays at Medusa Bungalow, Akmeemana, Galle, Sri Lanka, operated by Hasitha Dias, sole proprietor trading as Medusa Bungalow (business registration no. 1\/16\/85\/2021-03-08\/59), and to the use of medusabungalow.com.<\/p>\n

1. Booking and payment<\/h2>\n

The bungalow is let whole, to one booking at a time. A booking is confirmed only when payment has been received and we have sent you a written confirmation. Card payments are processed securely by Sampath Bank; we do not see or store your card details. Prices are quoted per night or per retreat as shown at the time of booking and include applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. When you book with us directly there is no platform fee, and any extras are arranged by the household rather than a third party.<\/p>\n

2. Cancellation and changes<\/h2>\n

Cancellations are governed by our Cancellation Policy<\/a>, which forms part of these terms. In summary: free cancellation up to 14 days before arrival, 50% refund between 7 and 13 days, no refund under 7 days or for a no-show. To change dates, contact us as early as possible \u2014 we will always try to move your stay rather than cancel it, subject to availability.<\/p>\n

2a. Right of withdrawal<\/h2>\n

Contracts for the provision of accommodation for purposes other than residential, where the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance, are exempt from the statutory consumer right of withdrawal (Article 16(l) of Directive 2011\/83\/EU on consumer rights; in Germany, \u00a7 312g(2) no. 9 BGB). Your booking is binding once confirmed. The cancellation terms in clause 2 apply instead.<\/p>\n

3. Arrival and departure<\/h2>\n

Check-in is from 2:00 PM<\/strong>. Check-out is by 11:30 AM<\/strong>. Earlier arrival or later departure can often be arranged in advance, subject to availability.<\/p>\n

4. Occupancy<\/h2>\n

The bungalow sleeps five guests<\/strong>. We can accommodate up to seven<\/strong> by arrangement, for a surcharge agreed in advance. The number of guests staying must not exceed the number confirmed in your booking.<\/p>\n

5. The house<\/h2>\n

Medusa is a quiet house in a residential garden, and part of what we offer is that quiet.<\/p>\n
