ARRIVAL INFORMATION

CHECK IN


Check-in is usually after 4pm.

If you are arriving earlier than this, please, contact me - if we don't have any departing guests we may be able to accommodate you. Alternatively you're welcome to park up in the driveway, and wait for a while! Or take a look at some of my suggestions in this guide - there are plenty of options to fill a few hours!

This way you'll be able to contact me, at any time, at no cost, while you're at the house.

ACCESS TO THE VILLA


Villa Rosita lies on the road, connecting ''Karteros'' (a popular coastal community, just a couple of klms outside the city of Heraklion), and the village ''Epano Vathia''.

For your convenience we have compiled a Google Map with driving instructions to Villa Rosita, together with several places of interest, both close to the villa and further away.

Please, click on the button below to access your custom Google map.

PARKING


When you've reached the villa, in your own vehicle, you can park the car at the house's private parking area, which lies at the far left corner of the property's road boundaries.

Your car CANNOT be left out on the street at night or another car might collide with it, accidentally. 

ENTERING THE HOUSE - KEYS


To enter the property, you must first open the front gate, walk through the main garden and reach the house's entrance. To unlock both doors you'll be given the keys, either in person, or in any other way we will agree, prior to your arrival. 

I like meeting new people and it is always a pleasure
to get to know you and give you a house tour myself.
However, if you wish otherwise, do let me know.
It is no problem at all. 

Ground Floor Plan

Please, study the house floor plans below, to familiarize yourselves with the villa's whereabouts.

Upper Floor Plan

PLEASE, NOTICE THE FOLLOWING

POOL & GARDEN MAINTENANCE

is scheduled once every 3 days at about 8:00am. Should there be any changes, you will be notified with a message. The PH and the CL content of the pool's water is regularly checked and adjusted as needed by the technician. 
The pool is automatically filtered 3 times a day (early in the morning, after midday and late at night, approx. 2 hours each time). Sometines, dust sits at the pool's bottom, due to the countryside environment, but it doesn't affect the water's hygiene. If there are leaves or insects floating at the water's surface you can remove them yourself with the Leaf Skimmer we privide and lies right next to the pool.

LAWN AUTOMATED WATERING

is scheduled every night between 01:00am and 01:35am. Make sure to remove towels and clothes from around the pool and any area close to the lawn.

LAWN

you may walk on the lawn. It's there for children (and adults, of course) to play.

THE POOL & GARDEN LIGHTS

switch on, automatically at about 08:00pm

THE TREES

in the garden have been sprayed against mosquitos. Still, if you do notice many mosquitos, do let us know so that we can deal with it. Please, don't eat the fruit from the fruit trees. They are not suitable for eating.

FLOWERS by THE FRONT TERRACE

Although there is a fully automated irrigation system for all plants in our Garden, we were forced to leave out the flowers in the little pots around the front terrace. We would appreciate you watering them once every second day, if that would not be too much trouble. Find out which plants need your care in the picture at the bottom of this page.

Some lighting spots

in the living room's ceiling are deliberatelly deactivated.

When you make your first espresso

don't panic with the machine sound. It's simply how the Bosch Tassimo coffee machine works. Watch the ESPRESSO MACHINE video on our ''Appliance instructions'' page here

Please, don't drink water from the taps.

It's best to drink bottled water.

Please, don't throw paper in the toilets.

The sewage pipes get clogged easily. 

PETS

Although we love animals, pets are not allowed in our home.

QUIET TIMES

We are located in a residential community and, although this is a holiday destination, it's home to many people. As such, we ask that you respect their privacy and their right to a peaceful existence! Specifically, between the hours of 3pm and 5pm (siesta time) noise should be kept to a minimum.

SMOKING

This is a Non-Smoking house, so, please, be so kind as NOT to smoke indoors. Feel free to smoke in the garden and pool area but remember to keep the area clean and free from cigarette butts!

ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO KEEP THE HOUSE LOCKED DURING YOUR ABSENCE, PLEASE.
