- All cancellations must be in writing.

- If the reservation is cancelled before 60 days prior to the reserved date of arrival the deposit will be returned in full less a service charge equivalent to 10% of the value of the deposit.

- If the reservation is cancelled more than 30 days but less than 60 days before the reserved date of arrival, the deposit will be returned less 50% of the value of the deposit.

- If the reservation is cancelled or postponed less than 30 days prior to the reserved date of arrival, the deposit will not be refunded if the ski area is open.

- Prices in dollars are informative. Bills for consumption at the hotel are presented in Chilean pesos at the official exchange rate. Prices may be subject to change. Our rates do not include the 19% Value Added Tax (known as IVA), however, guests who are not residents of Chile do not pay IVA if they pay their hotel account in dollars or with a dollar credit card.

- Room and extra charges are non-refundable once a guest is at Portillo.

ROAD CLOSED POLICY

The road to Portillo is also the International Highway that links Santiago Chile with Mendoza in Argentina (crossing Andes Mountains). The highway is maintained by the Chilean Ministry of Public Works, who is responsible for road maintenance and clearing following snowstorms or other events. Portillo Ski Resort is not responsible for the condition of the road.

IMPORTANT: Guests who are unable to reach Portillo while the road is closed will be responsible for their accommodations and other expenses in Santiago or elsewhere. The nights that are not used at Portillo will not be charged and the amount will be credited to their accounts. Guests may choose to transfer the credit to their extra services account (ski lessons, bar bills, etc.), use the credit toward a future reservation or proceed for reimbursement through their respective agency.

IMPORTANT: Guests who are unable to leave Portillo because the road is closed and must spend an additional night in the resort will be charged the full rate for the first night’s accommodation. If there should be a second night a 50% discount is applied to the normal rate.

PORTILLO OPERATES WITH NATURAL AND MAN-MADE SNOW, WHICH ALLOWS FOR THE CONSISTENT OPERATION OF THE SKI AREA ONCE IT IS OPEN.
