The flagship suite of the Bayté collection, on Mar Mikhael's main street
The Elegance is the largest of the three Bayté apartments and the one with the most to look at: chevron parquet underfoot, coffered ceilings overhead, and a full chef's kitchen with a breakfast bar along one side of an open plan that ends in a lounge around the queen bed. A full sofa bed takes the third and fourth guest. There is a proper desk, fast Wi-Fi, and power and hot water around the clock.
The balcony looks along the street to the heritage skyline that makes Mar Mikhael what it is. Downstairs, everything is on foot: the cafés and galleries by day, the restaurants and bars by night, all a few steps away and, as guests say, close enough without being on top of you.
It is a suite for a couple who like a city at their door, or a small family who want to walk everywhere.

Good to know before you book
You may cancel free of charge up to seven days before arrival, and everything you have paid is returned to you. Within seven days of arrival the stay is no longer refundable, though we will always look for a way to move your dates rather than lose your visit altogether. Refunds are sent by the same route your payment came, once a member of the team has confirmed the cancellation with you.
A refundable deposit of $100 is part of the total you send with the booking. It is held against damage to the residence or its contents and returned to you, by the same route it came, within 7 days of your departure. Should anything need to be kept from it, we will tell you what and why before we do, and the rest is returned as usual.
House rules
The residence is in a building where people live, and we ask that it is treated as their home as much as yours. We do not allow smoking indoors, and we do not host parties or events; the balcony stays quiet after eleven at night. The number of guests staying is the number on the booking, and anyone else is welcome by day but not overnight. Pets are not accepted.
Please leave the residence as you found it, with the rubbish taken down and the keys where you were shown. Anything broken is easier to forgive when we hear about it from you first.

Frequently asked questions
How is payment made?
Payment may be made by Whish or OMT within Lebanon, and by Western Union or MoneyGram from abroad. The details are provided on confirmation of the booking and in the accompanying email. Each payment is verified by a member of the Diar team, who confirms receipt in writing. Card payment will be introduced shortly.
Is a booking confirmed immediately?
Yes. On confirmation, the dates are reserved and closed on all other channels. Payment is then due within 24 hours; once its receipt has been recorded by the Diar team, the booking is final and a written confirmation is sent by email.
What happens if payment is not received in time?
A reminder is sent before the deadline. Should payment not have been received when the deadline passes, the dates are released and no charge is made. A new booking may be made at any time, subject to availability.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellation is free of charge until 7 days before arrival, and all sums paid are returned by the same means. Within 7 days of arrival the stay is non-refundable; the Diar team will, wherever possible, propose alternative dates.
Is a security deposit required?
A refundable deposit of $100 is included in the amount due at booking. It is held against damage to the home or its contents and returned by the same means within 7 days of departure. Should any part be retained, the reason is stated in writing beforehand.
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in and check-out times are stated on each home's page and repeated in the booking confirmation. Early arrival or late departure may be arranged on request, subject to the day's bookings.
