A MESSAGE TO OUR GUESTS
We understand that in our globally connected world, travel plays an important part in our lives and that the current situation has most likely affected your travel decisions. But, normality will return, and on this there can be no doubt.
Meanwhile, Evelyn’s House family will remain vigilant in its practices and hygiene, following directives issued by our local authorities. The health, safety and well-being of our guests and staff is paramount.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, some typical and special/extra guidelines we follow when cleaning the spaces of the house between reservations are presented:
• Welcoming and cleaning staff use a 3D printing protective mask, gloves and a disposable waterproof robe.
• Air conditioning units, fabric (eg furniture upholstery, curtains, windows, etc) and hard surfaces are cleaned with a steam appliance. So, a steam cleaner is used to ensure maximum cleanliness and hygiene removing up the enveloped viruses, such as the coronavirus or influenza, and the common household bacteria from hard surfaces, such windows, etc.
• The outdoor hot tube is emptied and cleaned between rentals or every week (in case of long duration booking).
• Touch-free dispensers for hand sanitizer at the house main entrance and the garage.
• Good cleaning of the surfaces, which the guests often touch, such as knobs, toilet surfaces, etc.
Our thoughts are with everyone affected around the world by this unprecedented event, COVID-19.
My team joins me in saying please stay safe and take care of your families, and we will be counting the days until we welcome you all back again.
