I was a big fan of canopy and stars until we had to cancel the booking for my 30th birthday due to my partner being called away on a family emergency for an number of months. This alerted some obvious flaws in the cancellation processes. The booking was made 5 weeks before we were due to attend the accommodation. We contacted canopy and stars 4 days after the booking was made, a month prior to the date due to check in. We advised the situation and asked how we cancel the reservation. We have been advised we will only receive a refund of 75% of the amount paid IF the property is rebooked and if not we will not receive anything. To add to this we have to contact the company to check if the property has been rebooked other wise they will just keep the money paid for the booking. I am happy to pay a fair fee for the cancellation that is completely reasonable but this whole situation totally stinks, poor company policies not fit for purpose. This does not represent the brand well at all and even worse it does not represent the small businesses who build and create the fantastic pieces of accommodation. I am not able to be with my partner for my 30th birthday, who is having a rubbish time after being called away and to make it worse I have to pay for accommodation we aren’t able to use in 4 weeks time. Perhaps I should market the dates and accommodation in this review at least then someone else can enjoy it and I would get a bit of a refund.
