House Keys

There is a key box with the house keys and gate remote. More details of this will be provided to you when you are sent your documents and driving instructions.


Electricity Note: When you arrive at the villa you will need to insert the white plastic plaque (also attached to the door key) into the small slot beside the inside of the front door to turn on the electricity.


Warning: Self Locking Doors - Avoid Getting Locked Out!

The front door to your villa does not have outside door handles and is ‘self locking’.
It is very easy for the door to swing closed behind you as you step outside and to find yourself locked out. Leave the key in the outside of the lock, or in an outside plant pot or similar, when you arrive at the property and anytime you are outside around the property (e.g. unloading the car, sitting on the terrace etc).
