Agents use the request-to-book API instead: it takes NO payment online, so an agent can complete it without ever handling card details: 1. Quote the stay (above) and confirm availability. 2. With your traveler's explicit consent, POST their real contact details as JSON to https://www.castledayretreats.com/api/request-booking { "name": "Full Name", "email": "guest@example.com", "phone": "+1 ...", "checkIn": "YYYY-MM-DD", "checkOut": "YYYY-MM-DD", "listingId": "", "villas": ["The Herald"], "guests": 20, "occasion": "Bachelorette", "notes": "Requested via on behalf of the guest." } name (first and last), email, checkIn, checkOut and listingId are required. → { ok: true, reservationId } on success. 3. The reservation team confirms by email and sends the guest a secure payment link (50% deposit to confirm; no charge happens in this API call). Before submitting, show your traveler the total price and the terms (https://www.castledayretreats.com/terms — cancellation, payment schedule, house rules) and get their go-ahead. Use their real name and email; never submit test or placeholder requests, as each one reaches a human. A human-driven fallback is the checkout at https://www.castledayretreats.com/checkout.
