Our Daily Cleaning Process
- Being a Private House allows us to have full control of the entry and exit of providers (Pool and Gardener) which we can prohibit the entry during the statistics of the guests if they require it.
- We can attend with a minimum amount of personnel:
Housekeeper, Maintenance Man, Cook (Optional) - Greater cleaning control of the property.
- Greater control of guests over who may or may not be during their stay on the property.
