Villa Chores!

Hi first post!
This is our first time going to a villa and reading through previous posts I see mentions of tasks I never even thought of when it comes to a villa. Such as bins how do you know when to take them out do you get in to trouble for putting out on wrong day/time? How do you find out such villa rules? Another one is washing I heard you can't line dry or make it visible. Help with how do you find out what to do and any more tasks I hadn't thought of related to villa stays appreciated!

Don't panic- it all becomes clear when you are there.

There will be a book of useful information left on the side for you which gives you information about useful telephone numbers, bin days, general instructions and tips on where to visit etc.

Usually everything goes in the tumble drier- sometimes there is a line inside the garage area, if its not able to go in the tumble drier.

There will usually be a book/ring binder in coffee table or somewhere obvious with all relevant instructions.
For drying use the tumble dryer, we also had pull out line inside the garage.

Most Villas have a manual in them with all sorts of information as well as the information the owner will send as a matter of course.Take the time to read the instructions in the Villa ..it will save you a lot of hassle during your stay.We provide a comprehensive manual with details of washing machine operation,alarm,garbage disposal,bin days recycling, local restaurants ,emergency phone numbers etc and most responsible owners will do the same.

Just ask the owner if you can, he will give you all the answers to your questions.

As others have said there should be a manual in the villa , just make sure you read it, many people do not give it a glance and yet it is there to make your stay in the villa worry free.

Hi and welcome to the Dibb

We have the details in our welcome manual which is full of lots of information to help you with your stay, it is very easy and you are going to love staying in a villa.

As well as a big dryer we have 2 airers which can be used inside or outside. I like things to dry outside

Have a great holiday

Not to worry, as others said it will all be outlined in the manual. We have a drying rack and a rack above the washer and dryer where guests can hang some of their more delicate items. I am sure they will have some facility to hang some things if you desire. It is best just to put towels in the dryer. Relax and enjoy yourself!

As said , it is all so easy
There will be a folder there with all the info
If you are not sure of anythng just ring the manco (number will be in folder) and they are there to help you
Please do read the folder , since they usually have lots of info you may not even have thought of ..like using the waste disposal in the sink
We also have a folder "Parks and Beyond"
there is no dust the clean air ( no pollutopn) and Ac take care of that
I always find the household tasks so much easier in Florida...dishes in the dishwaser , clothes in the machine and then in the drier or on the airer...I really do not know why , cos I have all thses things at home ..perhaps it is just the sun and the feel good factor!
It is honsestly a dream!

The ususal everyday tasks are so easy ..
