policies for groups 26 to 39 rooms; however moving forward, policies for groups up to 25 rooms should apply.

Example Penalty Calculation:
Penalties apply to any cancelled room nights above the allowable reductions.

Tier 2 Resort:
Original Room Block: 35 Rooms staying 3 nights = 105 room nights
Group Size: Medium, Groups 26 39 rooms
Group Reduction at 90 Days = 30 Room Nights
(18 Deluxe at $250.00 per night and 12 Junior Suites at $280.00 per night)
o Allowable Room Night Reduction is 20%: 105 Room Nights X 20% = 21 Room Nights
o Remaining Room Nights Penalized: 30 Room Nights 21 Room Nights = 9 Room Nights
o Room Category of Majority Total Cancelled Room Nights is Deluxe Room: $250.00 per night
o Penalty is 40%
How to calculate penalty amount: Room Nights Penalized X Room Cost per Night X Penalty %
9 room nights X $250.00/night X 40% = 9 X 250 X .4 = $900
Total penalty amount = $900


Booking Process:
The following outlines the process for booking groups at an Inclusive Collection, part of Hyatt
Hotels and Resorts property.
All group sales are subject to stop sales by each resort. When quoting a group, a resort will
hold the original rate quoted for that group for a period of up to 21 days, as long as written
documentation of original said rate can be provided (a written quote that is dated with an
agent will qualify as acceptable documentation for this).
o For Small (S) and Medium (M) Size Groups:
o Partners connected via HBSI:
o Rates can be quoted using the best rate in the system with any valid promotion,
restrictions may apply. Tour Operator must provide a screenshot, including but not
limited to the resort, room category, rate, occupancy and date as documentation for
the valid quote period. Inventory is not guaranteed until signing.
o If Tour Operator proceeds with booking the group, contract must be requested from
resort.


Without HBSI:
o Bookings can be made from the partner’s available inventory. If the contracted
inventory is not available or not enough rooms are left in the partner’s inventory,
the partner must submit an above allotment request to the Resort. The Resort’s
group department will confirm or deny based on availability.
