Useful Information

Welcome to Assos and our holiday homes!

We hope you had a pleasant journey and enjoyed the stunning scenery on your way to Assos. Upon arrival, a few complimentary items will be supplied for convenience on your first day only.

Below are all the general details about the accommodation. For information about Assos/Kefalonia (beaches/restaurants/taxis/medical etc) click here >>

 

DRAINS – IMPORTANT!

Due to the small-bore pipes and to avoid blockages, please ensure that all toilet-paper, nappies and sanitary items are placed in the bin provided. This is very important because if a blockage occurs it can take a day or two to organize a solution! At the moment there is no sewage system in Assos and septic tanks have to be emptied regularly by a truck arriving at the property, usually monthly and early in the morning!

 

DRINKING WATER

Drink bottled water only. Do not drink the tap water as it contains many minerals, which may result in stomach upsets! Assos, has problems with water supply (although it is being worked on currently), please use sparingly! Your consideration would be appreciated when taking showers by keeping the time to a minimum.

 

Avoiding Balcony Fall Accidents – Safety advice:

  • Do not leave children unsupervised on your balcony

  • Keep balcony doors locked when you are not using your balcony

  • Never leave balcony furniture such as chairs next to balcony railings or walls

  • Do not lean over or sit on balcony walls or railings.

  • Please keep young children safe, do not allow them to climb on the balcony or railings. We will not be held responsible for any mishaps or accidents. Thank you for your co-operation.

 

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

When entering the property please ensure that you insert your key (metal or plastic strip) into the receptacle slot beside the front door for the electricity supply to come on. This system works as in hotels, when you leave the property and you take the key with you the electricity supply will be turned off except for the fridge.

 

FIRE NOTICE

When you arrive at the property please familiarise yourself with the exits and the location of the fire extinguisher. In the event of fire, vacate the property as quickly as possible closing doors and windows behind you. If you are able to extinguish the fire yourself, do so ONLY if you are not putting yourself at risk. Please alert the housekeeper and or emergency services 199.

Please DO NOT SMOKE inside the property.

 

SIESTA TIME – 2:30pm – 5:30pm

Please note this time is a period of rest and quiet, loud music or noise in the property will be frowned upon! Thank you for your understanding.

 

CHECK-IN TIME 14:00 CHECK-OUT TIME 11:00
On the day of departure, please vacate the property by 11:00 so that the housekeeper has enough time to clean before the new guests arrive.

Please leave the key on the kitchen table or back in the key safe.

 

SECURITY SAFE

There is a small safe in the wardrobe of the main bedroom. Please change this code during your stay, instructions are available on the safe. On the day of departure please leave the safe door open.

 

HOUSEKEEPING

There will be a general clean, change of towels and bed linen midweek. The housekeeper will aim to clean the property while you are out so as not to disturb you, so you may not always see her. If you would like to leave your rubbish outside the property every day between 10-11am, the housekeeper will take it away. If not, you can take it to the main bin collection area, which is only 50 meters away near the main car park. Please do not leave rubbish outside any other time. Please do not take the white apartment towels down to the beach.

 

APPLIANCES

All the appliances are straightforward and easy to use.

 

MOSQUITO MACHINES

Mosquito machines are provided and will be plugged into one of the sockets in each room.

 

KEYS

If you lose your key or get locked out, please speak to the housekeeper during the day or email info@aqua-kefallonia-apartments.com.

 

PARKING

There is a small car park near the property and is free for everyone to use. There is another free parking area approximately 70 meters turning right after the village square, passing the small mini market. Please do not park your car directly in front of the house as you may risk damaging your car caused by other cars attempting to squeeze through.

 

AIR CONDITION

The air condition operates while you are in the property and the key is in the receptacle position by the front door. For maximum efficiency please ensure all windows and doors are closed while the air condition unit is in operation. When you leave the property and take the key with you the electricity supply will be cut off except for the fridge. Unlike most tour operators we do not charge an extra local fee for the air condition. Please do not leave the unit running unnecessarily. It will only take a few minutes to cool the property on your return. If, while you are out, the air condition is found to be running unnecessarily, the housekeeper will disable the unit.
