What rights do holiday and short term guests have (part 1)

24 June 2025

John Mahoney was recently featured in the latest Resort News – the magazine for the accommodation industry professional – where he discussed the rights of holiday and short term guests.

In the first of the two articles, John discussed the legal framework and contractual aspects supporting these rights of holiday and short term guests. The second instalment, which will be published in August, will see John discussing the role onsite managers/caretakers have in dealing with problem guests (and how they can perform this role effectively).

You can read a copy of the first instalment here.
