On excursion

Fuerteventura

In the blog: "Fuerteventura, the island of eternal spring" we introduce this beautiful island to you in an original way. We wish you a pleasant acquaintance. Fuerteventura, the island of eternal spring.

The beaches

They are kilometers long, the golden beaches of Fuerteventura. In the north of the island alone, where our holiday home is located, there is an extensive selection. In the next blog, we would like to provide you with more detailed information: Discover the breathtaking beaches of Fuerteventura.

Tourist attractions

Of course, there is an extensive range of tourist attractions and activities for enthusiasts. Taking into account the location of our holiday home, we have made a selection from the two largest providers of tourist attractions and added links to book directly. This way, you can plan your vacation perfectly and in advance. Discover the offerings here.

A few rules of living

Casilla de Costa is a diverse community with a variety of residents and nationalities. Some people reside here, others have their vacation homes, and there are also temporary visitors. A few basic agreements help to live together in harmony.

1° General

a) Respect quiet hours at all times.

In Spain, there is a law regarding the respect of everyone's peace. For our region, this is between 22:00 and 08:00. Optionally, attention is also requested within the community between 14:00 and 16:00. Please try to pay attention to this. If you find yourself repeatedly disturbed during your sleep, remain calm and try to engage in a constructive conversation. If this doesn't bring a solution, be sure to contact us.

b) Do not climb over walls or fences, and always stay out of the gardens.

c) Only toilet paper may be flushed down the toilets. Wet wipes, feminine hygiene products, or other waste must be deposited in household garbage bins and then in the designated bins at the entrance/exit.

d) Drying of laundry or other materials can only be done using a drying rack or a dryer. Drying racks are not allowed in common areas.

For upper-floor apartments, it is requested to place drying racks on the rooftop terrace. In bad weather, drying racks can be placed on the balcony, but not at the edges, so that the wash water does not run along the exterior walls.

2° The pool

Follow the instructions indicated at the pool.

Additionally:

a) Eating and drinking are not allowed, except for drinks in sealable (plastic) bottles, no glass/cans.

b) Smoking is allowed, but use the provided ashtrays.

c) Cover sunbeds with a towel before use, and sunbeds cannot be reserved.

d) Non-overnight guests must always be accompanied by the owner.

Casa Fuerte Vida, Practical Information

Sorting Waste: At the entrance of the Casilla de Costa complex, you can find waste containers. On the street, there are three containers: one for glass, another for paper and cardboard, and one for hard plastic and tin. We kindly ask you to use them correctly and to respect the requested sorting as much as possible. In the adjacent building, there are additional containers for residual waste. Please use trash bags for residual waste inside the apartment.

Operation of Appliances

You can find the manuals for the various appliances in the TV cabinet. If you still have trouble, feel free to contact us.

Security Deposit

We prefer to collaborate in trust. Therefore, we do not request a security deposit. We understand that appliances are susceptible to wear and accidents can happen quickly - a broken glass, cup, or plate can happen to any of us. However, we have invested a lot of time, energy, and money in Casa Fuerte Vida. If the door of the kitchen cabinet or the washing machine is broken, or if the TV screen is damaged, or if beach towels or decorative items are missing, we may need to ask for compensation. This will be done at market-competitive prices. We have no intention of turning this into a business; on the contrary.

During checkout, a brief inspection will take place. Please spontaneously report any breakage or missing items at that time. As mentioned earlier, we aim to be flexible and understanding in this matter.

Closing Words

There you go, we hope you can make use of the provided information and wish you once again a fantastic stay at Casa Fuerte Vida and in Fuerteventura. If certain things are unclear or if you notice any issues, do not hesitate to contact us.
