About the Accommodation

Shopping:

For your arrival we have prepared the following for you:

• Toilet paper

• Kitchen paper rolls for the kitchen

• Dishwashing tablets

• Laundry Detergent

• General cleaning supplies

• Garbage bags in 2 sizes for kitchen and bathroom

• Soap in all 3 bathrooms and kitchen

• Nespresso coffee capsules (a stick)

• 1 bottle of milk, sugar, salt

• Propane gas bottle for grilling

• There is also free drinking water in the house. The filtered drinking water can be found at the small tap in the kitchen.

At the hotel 50 meters next door, you will find a small supermarket. But it is better to do large purchases in the Mercadonna in Puigderrós (Carrer de la Falzia, 8, 07609 Llucmajor) on the Badia Blava or in Campos in the Lidl, Aldi, Müller (just google).

The Mercadonna in Puigderrós is halfway from the airport to the house.

Water:

You don't have to buy drinking water!

The water in the house is descaled by a decalcification system. It comes from a well with drinking water quality from the water company in Cala Pi. We have stored several thousand liters of water under the terrace. When water is consumed, a pump switches on automatically, which creates the necessary water pressure in the pipe.

When showering, some people find that the soap does not come off their skin. This is due to the filtered lime-free water. This is just a sensation, the soap will still come off the skin. The water quality in Cala Pi is very good, but we have installed a tap with drinking water for you in the kitchen at the sink. When you press this, filtered osmosis drinking water comes out of a separate line. If no more water comes out of the tap, you have used up the supply and filtered water is slowly being produced again. Under the sink you can see the plant and the containers.

The shower water is electrically heated, a 150 liter container hangs on the wall in the laundry room. A photovoltaic system on the roof produces the electricity for hot water and the warm whirlpool.

Sewage:

Cala Pi still has no sewer connection for waste water. CASA AGUAMARINA has a septic tank in front of the house. This is pumped out at regular intervals.

We change the water for the whirlpool with every guest change. In addition, we water the garden automatically at night using drip hoses that have been laid.

In order not to pollute the environment, we ask you to use only ecologically degradable detergents and cleaning agents as well as dishwashing tablets. Preferably the FROSCH brand, available at the MÜLLER drugstore in Mallorca.

We ask that you do not pour oil or leftover food down the drain. Please use kitchen paper instead and throw it in the garbage bag.

The septic tank is not happy about pads, tampons, plasters or wet wipes. Please do not throw these things down the toilet.

Garbage:

For reasons of smell and because of the heat, there is not one large garbage can per house like in Germany.

Therefore, throw the rubbish directly into the containers on the street every day.

A gray mixed waste container is 10 meters from the house on the street. It is emptied daily.

Step on the lever below with your foot and the lid will open.

According to the regulations, the garbage bags should be disposed of in the container between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m.

Park:

Please open the roller shutter in the driveway with the key and slide it to the left.

Only one car fits in the driveway in front of the house. A charging station for e-cars is also available here. An intelligent electronic circuit ensures that the car is preferably charged with solar power.

You can park other cars across the street.

If there is a yellow line drawn at the side of the road, you are not allowed to park there!

There are separate instructions on the subject of parking, which we will be happy to send you.

Cleaning service:

If you rent the CASA AGUAMARINA for more than a week and would like it to be cleaned in between, then let us know. For around EUR 20/hour, our maid will come by and clean the toilets, bathrooms and kitchen. We also vacuum and wipe the house. If necessary, she will change and wash the bed linen and towels.

The final cleaning after your stay is already included in the rental price for the CASA AGUAMARINA.

On your departure we ask that you put all towels and used bathrobes in the shower and leave the kitchen and BBQ clean.

In the event of extreme soiling or stains on items that cannot be removed, we will charge you for professional cleaning or the replacement of the items.

Tip:

We hope that when you arrived you were delighted with a perfectly prepared holiday home. Our two hard-working chambermaids are responsible for this. If you like, put some money on the bed or leave it on the dining table with a little “thank you” note. Thanks very much!

Bed sheets towels:

There are 1 large and 1 small bathroom towel available per person, as well as 1 beach towel and 1 beach towel and a bathrobe for your wellness in the whirlpool.

We provide you with bed linen and towels according to the registered number of people. If you still need more bed linen or towels, please let us know.  

Cot and high chair:

A cot and a high chair and cutlery are not automatically available in the house. Please inform us a few days before your arrival so that we can prepare this for you.

Lighting and home automation:

The house has a small home automation. This means that the light at the entrance to the house goes on automatically when it is dark. If you switch on the garden lighting, it lights up for a maximum of 6 hours.

When the windows are opened, the air conditioning switches off.

Living room and bedroom lights are dimmable.

TV:

We have installed a total of 4 smart TVs for you in the house - in the living room and in all 3 bedrooms.

The installed satellite antenna is set to German TV channels.

You can use the SMART TV via the remote control and WiFi and watch Amazon Prime or Netflix, etc. with your own access.

Music:

A mobile portable SONOS sound system with battery connects your mobile phone and plays your own music. Connect to WiFi and download the SONOS APP. You can then play your music with the SONOS APP and your Spotify access.

A connection via Bluetooth is also possible.

Please avoid excessively loud music that could disturb the neighborhood. Especially after 9 p.m., reduce the music volume to the conversation volume to avoid trouble with the neighborhood. Please be considerate.

Air conditioning:

The house has two air conditioners on the roof. It noticeably cools down the rooms within minutes. It can be switched to heating in winter and then warms the rooms.

All rooms can be controlled individually with the display next to the room door.

Small white sensors are installed on the windows. As soon as you open a window, the air conditioning switches off automatically.

For the sake of the environment and power consumption, do not leave the air conditioner on when you are away from home for a long period of time.

To avoid catching a cold, we recommend setting the air conditioning to a minimum of 25 degrees. The dry air makes it sufficiently cool in summer.

There are separate instructions on the subject of air conditioning, which we would be happy to send you.

Ceiling fan:

There is a noiseless ceiling fan in each bedroom. It is controlled with the remote control above the light switch. It is best to run it continuously at low speed in summer.

There are separate instructions on the topic of ceiling fans, which we would be happy to send you.  

Heating:

In the colder seasons, we heat the house with the air conditioner by producing warm air and blowing it into the room. The whirlpool is automatically heated with 3,000 watts of electricity. Please cover it when not in use. The energy would fizzle out.

Shutters:

In order to open the shutters, you have to pull 2 pins out of the frame at the top and bottom of the left shutter wing by operating a small lever. To fix the shutters to the outside wall, please read our instructions.

There are separate instructions on the subject of window shutters, which we would be happy to send you.

Fly screens / mosquito nets:

To protect you from mosquito bites, we have installed 2 types of fly screens on the windows. Please read our separate instructions for this.

There are separate instructions on the subject of fly screens, which we would be happy to send you.

Chimney:

You are welcome to use the open fireplace in the living room in the colder seasons. We will be happy to provide you with the firewood.

Please read our separate instructions beforehand to ensure that the fire turns out well and that you do not smoke the house and set off the fire alarm.

There are separate instructions on the topic of fireplaces, which we would be happy to send you.

Kitchen:

The house has a fully equipped kitchen on the ground floor.

The kitchen on the ground floor has the following appliances:

Electric stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge with freezer compartment, juicer, toaster, kettle, Nespresso coffee capsule machine, mixer, drinking water tap.

Grill:

A WEBER gas grill is available on the terrace. Please only use 11 liter propane gas bottles and no butane gas, because the butane gas is not clean, smokes and smells of petroleum. Please let me know when the bottle is empty. We'll bring you a full gas bottle. Please turn off the gas tap on the gas bottle (green position) when you are not using the grill or when you change the gas bottle. Please read our separate instructions for this.

There are separate instructions on the subject of gas grills, which we will be happy to send you.

Washing machine and tumble dryer:

There is a washing machine with an integrated tumble dryer.

Next to the washing machine is an ironing board and a metal drying rack.

The iron can be found in the hanging cupboard above the washing machine.

Please only wash our towels or bed linen separately and separately by colour.

There are separate instructions on the subject of washing machines and tumble dryers, which we will be happy to send you.

Foot shower:

In case you come back from the beach with sandy feet, we have installed a shower for feet and legs in the entrance area. Please use this, because nothing is more unpleasant than having sand in the whirlpool, on the terraces and in the house.

Sun awning:

We installed an awning on the terrace by the living room. Please read the separate instructions so that other guests can also enjoy it.

There are separate instructions on the subject of sun awnings, which we would be happy to send you.

Jacuzzi:

The whirlpool is suitable for up to 6 people, has various air and water jets and underwater lighting for the evenings.

The whirlpool can be electrically heated up to 39 degrees with 3,000 watts in the colder months. Please cover it when not in use. The energy would fizzle out.

After each guest visit, we exchange the water for new water and flush the pipes with a little chlorine. As a result, we use as few cleaning chemicals as possible. Please understand that the water change may mean that the whirlpool is not at the desired temperature when you arrive in the winter months.

Our caretaker checks the water quality twice a week.

If you would like a water change in the whirlpool during a longer stay, please let us know.

We generate almost all of the electricity for the heating ourselves with our photovoltaic system on the roof.

Electrical current:

In Spain, houses have an electricity limit. If the electricity consumption is higher than what we had booked, a fuse box on the street switches off the electricity. A technician from the power company or our janitor will have to turn it back on. Our home has a 9,000 watt limit. This means that you should not operate too many electricity consumers at the same time. Large electricity consumers are: hair dryer, electric stove, whirlpool heater, air conditioning, tumble dryer, washing machine, iron. Please avoid using them all at the same time.

Amenities

The house is supplied with a 600 Gbit fiber optic connection. You have reception inside and outside via several WIFI antennas in and around the house.

There are separate instructions on the subject of the alarm system, which we would be happy to send you.

Video surveillance:

For your safety and for the security of the house while it is not inhabited, we have installed 3 video cameras that monitor the entrance, the parking lot and the terraces and start recording video when there is movement. The recordings can only be viewed by the owner and are automatically deleted after a few days. The cameras are not active during your stay.

Children:

This house is suitable for children. However, you should be particularly careful with small children. Stairs, jacuzzi, patios can be a hazard. Note that the house is built on a 15 meter high cliff. Guests should supervise any baby or child when using balconies and patios. Guests bear full responsibility for the safety of children.

Neighbourhood

Beach and Bay:

The beach of Cala Pi is a natural beach that slopes gently into the water. You can walk about 100 meters into the water until you no longer feel the bottom. In the summer months it is guarded by sea rescuers.

You can reach the beach quickly on foot: just walk 100 meters up the street and then go down the steps to the beach. Attention, the port facility is very slippery in the area of the ramps! The swimming area is marked by yellow buoys in summer.

Watch out for jellyfish. Depending on the wind direction, there may be some in the bay. Do not rub burns and it is best to rinse with vinegar (not fresh water, otherwise it will get worse). In the summer months, the lifeguards use flags to indicate jellyfish.

Take your time and walk along the opposite side of the bay to the neighboring bay. You will experience unforgettable magical views as far as the Cabrera Islands.

Snorkeling:

The underwater world is unique, we recommend that you bring diving goggles with you. It's worth saying "hello" to the fish, octopuses, starfish, anemones and crabs, especially in the morning around 11 a.m. when the underwater visibility is clear. If you're lucky, you might even see rays, moray eels and seahorses.

The neighboring bay of Cala Beltran:

The bay of Cala Pi is only developed on the left bank, because the right bank is a nature reserve. A 15-minute walk (stairs at the end of the fishermen's cottages) takes you to the unspoilt neighboring bay of Cala Beltran.

With luck, a Mallorcan tortoise will crawl across your path!
