Use Of The Thermostat
Most of the year, we have HIGH humidity conditions, which can make the inside of the villa feel much warmer than it really is. Guests might initially feel uncomfortable until they acclimate to the environment. To ensure the air conditioning (A/C) works efficiently, please keep doors and windows closed. If a door is left open, moist air enters the house, prolonging the time it takes to make the home comfortable again.
It's crucial to avoid overloading the A/C with moisture-laden humid air, as this can lead to system shutdown or freezing. In such cases, a service call to repair the A/C will be necessary, causing additional discomfort and likely incurring a service charge. For optimal efficiency, set the A/C fan to AUTO mode and maintain a temperature range between 75- and 78-degrees Fahrenheit. Overhead fans can also assist in circulating air throughout the room.
Most of our bathrooms are equipped with air vents. We encourage guests to use these vents when showering, as it helps regulate moisture and humidity levels in the villa. This simple step contributes to a more comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Pool Cleaning
Pool Maintenance:
Our pools are meticulously cleaned and checked on a weekly basis to ensure they remain in optimal condition.
Weather Considerations:
Extreme weather conditions can occasionally affect pool chemicals and water levels. If you happen to notice any unusual change in the pool water, such as a green or yellow tinge, please contact Brad or Rene promptly.
Winter Months:
During the winter months, it's not uncommon for the pool to require additional water between its weekly checks. If this occurs, simply place a hose in the pool and let it run for approximately 1 hour to maintain the appropriate water level.
Summer Rainfall:
In the summer months, heavy rains can lead to the pool being rather full. Please don't worry; the pool is equipped with a failsafe system that will drain excess water. If you see a technician suddenly appear in the pool area, it's most likely Brad performing his routine checks swiftly to avoid disturbing you.
Pool Machinery:
For your safety, please refrain from attempting to change any settings on the pool machinery. If you have any concerns or questions regarding the pool's operation, don't hesitate to reach out to us.
Outdoor Dining:
When dining outdoors, kindly use only plastic plates and glasses. Broken glass poses a safety risk, and if it enters the pool, it can be challenging to locate and remove.
Food Storage:
Please avoid leaving food outside, as it can attract various insects and bugs. We want to ensure your outdoor experience remains enjoyable, and this simple measure helps maintain cleanliness and comfort.
