Please close the umbrella in the garden when windy and when finished using it. The wind in this location can be very strong and the umbrella can fly away or break easily

There is a storage room in the garden. The key to open it are hung in the living room by the entrance. In this room you'll find the washing machine, the recycling bins, beach toys and umbrella and some cleaning tools. Please do not use the kitchen in this room
gas
Gas in the kitchen is supplied through a gas cylinder stored under the barbecue in the garden and we always make sure this is full before your arrival. In the event you run out of gas, please do not attempt to replace the gas cylinder yourself, but contact us and we will come and replace it for you
power
Since the property has a standard electricity power, using multiple appliances together may cause the power to go off due to a power overload. In the event of a power outage, the electric panel (see picture) is located in the box by the entrance in the living room, while the main switchboard (see picture) is outside the property towards the intersection
toilet
Due to the local plumbing system, to avoid creating clogs and blockages, please do not over-use toilet paper and do not flush down anything except for toilet paper. Please use the bin provided for feminine products, wipes or anything else
Mosquitoes & Mosquito nets
Unfortunately during warm and hot periods there are many mosquitoes and insects, therefore we recommend you to always use mosquito nets and keep the doors closed. In the house you will find some products for protection from mosquitoes and insects. We also kindly ask you to operate the mosquito nets with care to avoid damaging them
PLANTS
Feel free to water the plants (if needed). It would be really appreciated!
