general information
getting into the condominium
in a previous email, we have asked you to please supply us with the names of the people staying with you in each of our homes This list is given to the “guards” at the main entrance, and they will only allow guests who are registered to enter the gated area, it is very important that everyone that comes to the house brings ID to be allowed enter to the condo.
guests
if you are expecting a guest, during the day, please have the names given to flor, to let the guards know that they have permission to enter the grounds According to the neighbourhood “rules”, if that visitor is not registered, they will not be allowed onto the property.
●the gas tanks these are kept in the garden, by the outdoor washing area If your longer term rental does not include the gas and you run out, please contact Zeta Gas, by dialing 1792 and ask for a 100 pound tank, the price is around Q528, and it comes in approximately 1 hr. If the gas runs out in one tank, as there are two tanks, please find the valve that can be turned to the other side in order to connect to the second tank. If in doubt, contact Paola (tel number above). Please let us know too that a tank has run out, so that we can order another. If you rental does include gas, and one tank is empty, then please call Flor or Angela to replace the gas tanks for you.
●fresh drinking water we provide you with several gallons of water when you arrive at the house Large ‘tambo’ (5 gallon container) can be bought on Wednesdays or Saturdays mornings from the water distributor, “Agua Salvavidas’”, truck – they costs Q16. If you are not going to be there, then you could leave the empty plastic container with the guards at the gate and ask them to pay the distributors when they come. You might want to leave them a small tip! Please do not drink (or brush your teeth) with tap water! We also carry some spares, in case you run out. Please ask Paola if you would like to buy one. We can discount this from your deposit.
