Craft My Escapes [ABN 53 105 652 256] (referred to as we, us, or our) offers curated travel experiences under the terms and conditions outlined below.
We provide a personalised travel booking and advisory service that enables you and your fellow travellers to purchase a range of travel products, including accommodation, transport, dining, creative workshops, and local events from third-party suppliers. These may be booked individually or bundled into a themed experience sold as an Escape Package.
Craft My Escapes acts as an agent for these third-party suppliers. Their individual terms and conditions, including policies on cancellations, amendments, and service delivery apply in addition to the terms outlined here. By booking through Craft My Escapes, you agree to comply with both our terms and those of the suppliers involved in your Escape Package.
When you make an enquiry or request to book an Escape with Craft My Escapes, whether through our website, by email, or over the phone you are confirming that you have read and accepted these terms and conditions.
Once we receive your enquiry, we’ll send a Booking Acknowledgment to your nominated email address. This will outline the details of your requested Escape. Please review it carefully and let us know as soon as possible if anything needs amending.
To help us coordinate your Escape, we’ll ask for the names and email addresses of your fellow travellers. By providing these details, you confirm that each person agrees to these terms and that you are acting on their behalf for the purposes of the booking.
We will check availability with our trusted local partners before proceeding, but please note that all bookings are subject to availability and price changes until confirmed. Travel products and experiences may fluctuate in cost due to seasonal demand, supplier adjustments, or other factors beyond our control.
Your Escape is not confirmed until a deposit has been received. We will provide deposit details and payment instructions once availability is verified. Final confirmation will be sent once your deposit is processed.
Please note: Craft My Escapes does not arrange flights.
After we have reviewed your Escape enquiry and confirmed availability with our local partners, we’ll send you a personalised quote outlining the details of your proposed
Escape. This quote will include a clear breakdown of your package, covering accommodation, experiences, dining, and any extras along with pricing and inclusions.
To proceed with your booking, a deposit is required, which will be specified in your quote. This deposit includes a non-refundable booking fee, which covers the time and care taken to coordinate your Escape and liaise with our trusted suppliers. Please note: this booking fee is retained even if your plans change or are cancelled.
Once your deposit is received, we will confirm your Escape with the relevant third-party suppliers. All bookings are subject to their individual terms and conditions, including cancellation policies, amendment rules, and pricing changes. These will be shared with you in your Booking Confirmation, along with a receipt for your deposit.
Please be aware that all bookings may attract cancellation fees, and changes to your Escape may incur additional costs depending on supplier policies and availability.
We understand that plans can change, and we aim to be fair while honouring the time and care that goes into curating each escape. The following cancellation terms apply to all bookings made through Craft My Escapes.

Amendment Fees
After your booking fee has been paid, any approved amendments will incur an amendment fee. This may be:
• A flat fee equal to your original booking fee, or
• A variable fee, depending on the complexity and time required to make the changes.
All amendments are also subject to third-party supplier terms and conditions, which may limit or restrict changes depending on availability, materials, or seasonal demand.
Bookings are non-transferrable to other individuals or dates unless expressly approved in writing.
