THINGS TO KNOW

* Checkin details will be sent either the night before checking in, or the morning of check-in for security reasons.


* We only provide 1 set of keys for each stay. We do not have extra sets.

*Please note, there is only an aircon unit in the living room. There are ceiling fans in all bedrooms.

*Building works will be taking place from September 2025 to March 2026. Scaffolding will be set up at the front of the building (near the mailboxes and car park entrance). This should not cause significant disruption, as the scaffolding will not cover the entire frontage at once. Instead, it will be installed in sections, with each section expected to remain for approximately 12–16 weeks, depending on the work required. Additionally, the apartment entry doors and door frames (exterior only) will also be painted. Work is scheduled to begin on Monday, September 15, and will continue for several weeks. Please note that during this period, workers may knock on your door to request it be opened briefly so they can complete the painting.

* Enjoy a seamless stay with our hassle-free airport pick-up and drop-off service, exclusively for guests booked to stay our homes. Contact us for rates and booking details!
