For students who prefer to stay in accommodations other than homestay, CPI offers a reservation service for apartments and rooms close to each campus. This arrangement is made possible due to partnerships with the following providers: B&B Vista Los Volcanes located near the CPI Heredia campus; Casas del Toro located near CPI Flamingo and CPI Monteverde. For clarification, CPI s role is only to assist in making the reservation; any and all concerns during your stay are attended by the management at each accommodation. Detailed below are the policies of these aforementioned partners; please note, during your stay at these accommodations you are bound to their regulations. Recommendation, as these units are boutique style and availability is limited, we do advise you make your reservations in advance. All accommodations run from through. Accommodations Reservation Policy Providers require a 10% non-refundable deposit applicable towards the total cost of reservation. If the deposit is not received one week from booking your reservation will be automatically cancelled. One month before the reservation start date the outstanding balance must be paid in full. Should the booking request be received one month before the reservation start date the reservation must be paid in full, versus only a deposit. Should the client want to adjust or postpone the reservation, it must be done at least one month prior to reservation start date. Accommodations Cancellation Policies Cancellation one month or more advance notice prior to start date of reservation: No additional charge beyond non-refundable deposit Cancellation less than one month advance notice prior to start date of reservation: One week of the accommodation reserved will be charged. Clarifications: If the accommodation reservation is for more than 1 week, the remaining weeks of accommodation will be refunded through international bank transfer with any/all bank fees being the responsibility of client. If the student is in Costa Rica, and s/he is cancelling the reservation from another CPI campus the same cancellation policy applies. Once client initiates stay at the apartment, room or villa, under no circumstance are there refunds for those who do not nor cannot finish the stay for which they have booked.
