The water is potable, as it is from a very deep on-site well & triple filtered. WIFI: Each house has a dedicated wifi beacon with strong signal (average 350 Mbps) , and port for ethernet cable if needed. CLEANING/LINEN CHANGE: For stays of 7 days or more, we include free of charge a weekly cleaning and change of bedding and towels. The house is also provided with several sets of all bed linens, kitchen linens, floor mats, bath/hand/face towels and pool/beach towels, in case you need extras. We provide a supply of cleaning and laundry equipment in each house, and there is a community laundry room on site with 2 washers and a dryer. We do not charge for cleaning when you check-out, unless there is some unusual/excessive mess or damage.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL: The bedroom and living room/kitchen have air conditioning, and there are fans in the living room, bathroom and covered porch. The bedroom windows have screens. POOL: Our pool uses a salt-chlorine generator. This means that instead of adding chlorine to the pool water, we add salt, and the generator converts it to chlorine. Pros of a salt-chlorine pool: clear, smooth water, feels silkier; less electricity required; gentle on skin, eyes & hair; no chlorine smell; does not fade swimsuits & pool gear. Pool is not heated, but has all day sun and plenty of shaded areas on the pool deck. INFANTS/CHILDREN/PETS: We can provide an infant travel cot or child bed, towels, toys, swim accessories upon request. Please note that the pool and several high sidewalks do not have child-barriers. Children must be watched in the shared spaces at all times. NOTE: As this is a developing island, there are occasional power outages. Keep your devices charged up as much as possible! We have battery-operated fans, lights and phone chargers in case of night-time power outages.

Location
The island is just 25 km long and 21 km across, so it doesn't take long to get anywhere. There are no tuktuks or buses in Samui, and no scheduled public transportation. There are many taxis, private vans and people carriers that can pick you up at the airport, or any other location on the island, arranged in advance. Cost from airport to our property should be about 400-500 baht (approx. $13 USD). There is no Uber on the island but download the Grab app to schedule private or taxi drivers to pick you up at an address or a pinned location. Prices start at about 200 baht for a short trip. Once you book we will send some recommendations for transport and scooter/car rentals.
