The highest of professional standards have been implemented for our vacation rentals including procedures recommended by the CDC.
- Check in will be via keyless entry to ensure the safest of social distancing practices. The lock box will be disinfected.
- A checklist (see below) will be left at each home by the housecleaner, verifying what they have cleaned as a minimum.
- Did you know “sanitize” and “disinfect” have completely different meanings? “Disinfect” is a term for killing germs on all hard surfaces with government recommended/approved products and applies to countertops, toilets, light switches, doorknobs, etc. “Sanitize” is a term that is used for soft surfaces such as carpets and sofa and kills the majority of germs.
- A checklist on page 2 and 3 covers our routine services and includes with each turnover: clean blankets, triple sheeting and laundered duvet covers.
- Housecleaners use gloves and masks and are careful to sanitize “as they are leaving the home.”
- Hand sanitizer will be left for guests (subject to supply).
- Vacancies between guests are 72 hours before and after check in/check out.
