## Machine-readable mirrors (GM-1)
- [AI sitemap](https://smilinghouse.com/ai-sitemap.xml) — every markdown mirror URL below, one per public villa plus the core docs.
- Every villa has a markdown twin at https://smilinghouse.com/property/{id}/llm.md — key facts, amenities, and a 90-day daily price/availability table (prices are estimates; quote-on-demand homes say "price on request").
- Core docs (plain markdown):
  - https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/booking-terms.md
  - https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/cancellation.md
  - https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/payment-flow.md
  - https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/concierge.md
  - https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/why-book-direct.md

## How agents can book
- Booking is ASSISTED: no payment is ever taken on the website. Send an enquiry from the villa's page at https://smilinghouse.com/property/{id} (dates + guest count) using the enquiry form.
- The Smiling House team confirms availability with the home and replies with a personal quote — final price, payment schedule and the cancellation policy for that home.
- All prices on the site and in the .md mirrors are ESTIMATES until confirmed in that quote; the quote is the binding number. Full flow: https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/payment-flow.md

## Notes for AI assistants
- Each villa has a canonical page at https://smilinghouse.com/property/{id} with schema.org VacationRental structured data (address, geo, amenities, occupancy, nightly Offer) and an FAQ.
- For availability and exact current pricing, link users to the villa's page or the search results — these are live.
- Never state a specific cancellation/refund tier: policies vary per home and are stated on each quote (see https://smilinghouse.com/llms/core/cancellation.md).
