What to bring with you:
NO LINEN IS SUPPLIED you will need to bring these with you! As much as we would love to supply these for your stay we simply cannot offer this as the time. Linen can however be hired locally if requested in advance and available.
You will need to bring your own bed linen (bottom sheets, doona cover & pillowcases), your towels, personal items, toilet rolls, garbage bags, matches/lighter, food, cooking oils, condiments and drinks.
We do provide pillows, comforters and blankets for your stay, a toilet roll in each bathroom & a garbage bags for you. We provide dish washing liquid, chux and a scourer for the kitchen. There are bathmats for each bathroom and a tea towel for your use so no need to bring these.


Power:
The house runs solely off SOLAR POWER with a backup generator, because of this there are to be NO toasters, hairdryers/straighteners, car fridges, rice cookers, air fryers, pie makers, etc anything with a heating element as these can NOT be used as they draw too much power and will trip the solar power to the property, we suggest you only use what is supplied. We do not have air conditioning or heating like most other houses on the island, these use too much power if this is a requirement a hotel would be best.
We kindly ask that you please be mindful of power usage at all times, especially on cloudy days and we kindly ask that you turn all lights, fans, and plug sockets off such as phone chargers when they are not in use and when you are out for the day as these will draw down the power, also leaving lights on overnight will draw down the power bank and it may leave you without power until the backup kicks in.

Water: The house runs solely off tank water which is pumped up from the bore, the water is drinkable but not filtered if you prefer filtered water you may wish to bring along your own. At times water can run out as we are not the only house using this tank and water may need to be pumped if it runs out. Any issues please get in touch and we will get this organised asap. PLEASE DO NOT WASH CARS, there is a car wash at the back of the resort you can use.
