Voucher/rental agreement and driving directions
Shortly after having booked your holiday home through
DanCenter, you will receive your booking confirmation by
post. This confirmation is your voucher/rental agreement
with all necessary information. On the first page you will
find information about the addresses of the holiday home and
the key collection place. In the middle of the page you
will find the driving directions. At the bottom of the page
there is a detachable card for ordering extras that may be
useful during your holiday. On the following pages you will
find the invoice concerning your booking as well as an
in-payment form stating due date.
On arrival at the key collection place you must present your
voucher, and you will receive your key for the holiday home
and a utility sheet/envelope where to state the meter
readings for the consumption related costs, such as
electricity, water etc., at arrival as well as at departure.
Time of arrival
Arrival can normally take place from 4 p.m. on the arrival
day.
Arrival outside opening hours
If you arrive in the late evening, our local offices will be
closed. In such cases please call us in advance to make
arrangements as to key collection and payment of deposit.
Extras
On the detachable card at bottom of the voucher/rental
agreement you can order various extras offered by our local
offices. In this way you can avoid packing your car with a
lot of unhandy things. Please notice that local offices in
Germany are only placed in areas with a high concentration
of holiday homes. In all other areas the key will be handed
over by the owner of the house or his substitute.
All holiday homes are equipped with the tableware and
kitchen utensils necessary for the number of persons for
which the house is meant. You can order bed linen, tea
towels, table cloths etc. from the DanCenter local office –
if there is one – if you do not want to bring all this
yourself.
If you have small children and need a cot, high chair or the
like, you can rent such items at the local office too.
There is not necessarily room for a cot in the master
bedroom. If a cot is listed in the description of the house,
and you only need one cot, you do not need to mark it on
the detachable card.
Please notice that not all local offices offer all kind of
extras. We therefore always recommend you to send an e-mail
to or to call the local DanCenter office before arrival. We
cannot guarantee that all the extras you may need will be
available, if they have not been ordered in advance.

Ferry connections
If you have booked a holiday home in Germany, you may need
to book a ferry. A good advice is to do this well in
advance. For information about ferry connections, please

The Road Directorate
During the holiday season you will often end up in a queue
on the most popular motorways and roads.
Local tax
All local governments in Germany collect a local tourist tax
from holiday home owners, among others. This tax is
calculated per guest per day and must be paid on site before
departure. The amount varies from area to area.
What is a cleaning audit charge?
We charge customers a small cleaning audit fee to prepare the room for the next guest, even as some outgoing guests prefer to clean the room themselves. Are such guests still required to pay a cleaning charge? Yes. Please let us explain.
While we appreciate guests cleaning the room themselves, we nonetheless conduct an audit to ensure that the room is in excellent shape. The cleaning audit fee we levy is for the time and effort involved in checking that our cleaning standards have been met, so that we can provide our customers with the best experience.
