The apartment

Kitchen and water

Language

Drinking water

Do not drink the tap water. Nowhere on this coast is tap water for drinking — that is normal here and it is not a fault with the apartment. Use it for showering and washing dishes; for brushing your teeth and for drinking, use bottled water or from the garrafón.

  • When you arrive we will tell you what water is in the apartment and where to buy more.
  • If it runs low, message us.
  • Drink more than you think you need. The heat and the humidity dehydrate you faster than you notice.

Using the kitchen

The kitchen is yours to cook in properly, not just to heat things up.

  • Pans, plates, cutlery and the basics for cooking are in the cabinets and drawers — have a look around when you arrive and ask us if something is missing.
  • If anything in the kitchen is not obvious, message us rather than forcing it. It is quicker for both of us.
  • Wash the dishes as you go. In this heat, dishes left overnight attract ants and flies very quickly.
  • Keep food in closed containers or in the fridge for the same reason — nothing left out on the counter.
  • Please do not pour cooking oil or fat down the sink.
