Club Terms

The rules before the card comes out.

Version terms-2026-05-25-v2. Last updated 25 May 2026.

Operator

The Sunset Club Monchique is operated by KOSACK LDA, Portugal. These operating rules apply to the current founding-season candidacy and Club offers. KOSACK LDA may update them for future bookings; the version accepted at checkout is the version that applies.

The Club

"The Sunset Club" describes a curated hospitality experience and membership ritual. It is not presented as a formal association, foundation, or statutory members club unless KOSACK LDA later creates one with proper legal documents.

2026 Season Candidacy

  • A 2026 Season Candidacy costs 19 EUR and is limited to 100 founding candidates.
  • Candidacy gives you the right to be considered for eligible daily offer notifications during the season.
  • Candidacy does not guarantee a dinner, a date, a seat, a sunset, or a particular number of offers.
  • You must keep your availability windows reasonably up to date. Normal daily offers are filtered against those windows.

No guarantee

Season Candidacy is access to the annual circle, not a reservation. The Club may be quiet for long stretches, and a member may receive no suitable offer if weather, availability, capacity, or curation do not align.

Daily Offers

  • On promising days, KOSACK LDA may decide around 11:00 whether a Sunset Club dinner can open that evening.
  • Eligible members may receive a private link by email and, only with opt-in, manually by WhatsApp.
  • One table exists. The first eligible member whose card payment is confirmed for the offer wins the booking.
  • The founding dinner price is currently 139 EUR per adult seat.
  • Children with their own plate are currently 49 EUR when agreed in advance. Guests aged 13 and above count as adult seats.

Children

Children may join only when agreed in advance and when the evening still works as a calm private dinner. KOSACK LDA may limit children for safety, service, weather, or suitability reasons.

Children under 6 may share without a dedicated plate by prior agreement. Dedicated child plates and any special additions are confirmed manually until the Club offers a structured add-on flow.

No Smoking

Smoking, vaping, and open flames are strictly prohibited anywhere on the property. This is a mountain setting and the rule is not negotiable.

KOSACK LDA may refuse service, end the evening, or decline future offers if this rule is breached.

Weather Veto

The sky has veto rights. If the evening is not expected to be excellent, KOSACK LDA may decide not to open an offer or may cancel a Club evening for weather, safety, or operational reasons.

If KOSACK LDA cancels a paid event booking before the dinner takes place, the intended rule is a refund or a replacement/credit option agreed with the member. Travel, accommodation, and other external costs are not covered.

Member Cancellation and No-show

Because there is only one table and the evening cannot simply be moved, confirmed no-shows and late member cancellations may forfeit the event payment.

Specific date dinners, special nights, catering, and leisure-style services can have different withdrawal/cancellation treatment from ordinary online goods. The terms shown at checkout govern the specific booking.

Perseid Nights and Specials

  • Specials such as The Perseid Nights may be member-only, adults-only, capacity-limited, and curated manually.
  • Active Alumni may receive priority before Season Candidates.
  • Availability filtering can be overridden for specials if KOSACK LDA chooses a wider eligible audience.

Alumni and Artefacts

A person becomes Lifetime Alumni only after actually attending a qualifying Club evening. Membership cards, certificates, sunset/starlight records, and related artefacts are intended to become part of the permanent Club history.

Photos and printed artefacts should be handled respectfully and consistently with the Privacy Notice.

Payments

Payments are processed through Stripe using the existing KOSACK LDA payment setup. The Sunset Club does not store full card numbers.

Stripe checkout metadata may record the accepted terms version, membership, booking, and event references for operational proof.
