If You have paid in full, and then cancel more than 90 days prior to departure we will do our best to get any refundable amount that has already been paid but, we cannot guarantee a refund.

All clients who use our custom trip planning service will receive the following benefits:

Customer satisfaction is very important to us, and we strive to stand behind our products and services that we sell. We will make every attempt to ensure that You are completely satisfied with the services we’ve provided You.

Like other well-known accommodation rating systems, Exquisite Travel Group uses a number of factors in evaluating the quality of participating accommodations such as: size of rooms, decor/furnishings, amenities, public areas, hospitality services, maintenance/housekeeping, reputation, etc. Exquisite Travel Group screens participating accommodations carefully and updates our information periodically to ensure the validity of our ratings. Our ratings systems may sometimes differ from those of other rating systems that You may be familiar with. We do not warrant or guarantee that our star rating system is identical to or consistent with any other star rating system.
Exquisite Travel Group will book Your reservation in a property with at least an equal or higher star level than You requested.
