Every weekday (morning), while you are out, your accommodation will be refreshed. The bed will be made, towels will be changed, and your bed will be changed weekly. In Casa Celine, your accommodation will be refreshed every weekday between 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.

Our accommodations are furnished with beautiful warm fabrics that we and our guests want to enjoy for a long time. There are blankets in the cottage to protect the sofa and chairs.

When renting to families with children, the sofas and chairs are standard covered with blankets.

During the summer months, it can get very hot in the Algarve.

Each cottage has air conditioning. Please use it when you are present in your holiday accommodation.

There is a water shortage in the Algarve during the summer due to drought. It would be nice if you could take this into account.

Our cottages are well insulated and have the highest energy label. During the winter, there is underfloor heating in the accommodation. Casa Pauline and Casa Celine also have a wood-burning stove.

Keep doors and windows closed during the day, keep the curtains open, and let the sun's warmth come in!

If you would like to enjoy a book during your stay, there are sure to be some books in the bookcase at Casa Pauline and Casa Celine that appeal to you.

In the bathroom, you will find large and small bath towels. We will replace the towels and kitchen linen when needed.

Our three self-catered accommodations are fully equipped.

In the kitchen, you will find a small wine cooler. Some delicious local wines are waiting for you there. Enjoy!

For your convenience, there is a two-person dishwasher.

If you wish to use the barbecue, you can do so in the communal garden by the pool.

Casa Pauline has a second (smaller) bedroom. Please let us know if you would also like to use this.

A cot, changing mat, potty, and high chair are available in Casa Pauline. Let us know what you need for your child(ren), and we will provide it.

Portugal, especially in rural areas, is one of the safest countries to live in.

The national emergency number here is 112, or you can call the emergency services at iMergencies.

For safety reasons, there is an electric cover on the swimming pool. If children are staying in Casa Pauline, we will keep the cover closed as a precaution unless we are present.

Children without swimming certificates must wear armbands around and in the swimming pool.

For safety and peace, children may only use the communal pool with their parents.

If you are expecting visitors to your accommodation, please let us know in advance via our shared WhatsApp group.

If you would like your visitors to stay overnight in your accommodation, this is only possible if we agree on it in writing via the group WhatsApp or email. The cost per person per night is 35 euros, excluding tourist tax. They will also be registered with the SEF, like any other guest.

Minor maintenance in the accommodation may sometimes be necessary. This will be done as much as possible while you are away. We will give timely notice in the group app unless it is an emergency.

Our Guesthouse is located in the middle of nature. It is essential to keep this in mind.

Do not leave rubbish bags outside and ensure the kitchen is always clean to avoid attracting pests.

Our Guesthouse is not connected to the sewage system. To prevent blockages, we ask that you only flush toilet paper in the toilet.

In Portugal, especially during the summer period, it is forbidden to light a fire due to the drought.

Smoking
Smoking is not allowed inside your accommodation or by the pool. Smoking is permitted on your private terrace.

We ask you to leave the accommodation by 10:00 a.m. so that we can prepare everything for the next guests. Unless otherwise agreed (in writing)!

If you cannot stay in your accommodation any longer, we have a secure locker where we can store your luggage until you leave.

Please leave your accommodation clean upon departure. If you prefer to leave this to us—it is your holiday, after all—please ask about our Comfort arrangement.

There is a guestbook in the accommodation for you to note down your experiences of the area and/or restaurant tips for future guests, if you wish.
