Guest rules

The purpose of the guest rules is to ensure guests’ safety, to protect the facilities from damage or misuse, to minimise any disruption of the neighbours and to ensure the property is kept in an orderly state. If you have any questions, please speak to the host.

  • Check in: Check in from 3pm on the day of arrival
  • Check out: Check out is 11am on the day of departure. Late check-out is often available upon request (additional charges apply)
  • Booking experiences: A list of Lucid Life experiences is indicated below. So as not to be disappointed, please book for these experiences before or at check in. The facilitator may not be available if experiences are booked later.

Pets

  • Small dogs are allowed. Please note, however, that there is no fenced area for animals and wildlife comes close to the guest accommodation.

Parking

  • Guests must park in the car space nearest the cottage – past the green house with the curved roof (the host’s house) .

Additional guests

  • No parties or events
  • No more than 2 people may stay in the accommodation overnight without permission from the host. An additional charge applies for additional guests

Environment

  • Shoes: Please take your shoes off inside the accommodation
  • Septic: The property is on a septic tank, including a macerating pump. Only toilet paper may be placed in the toilet, or the pump may clog or break. DO NOT place any other objects- wet wipes, tampons, condoms etc in the toilet. If materials other than toilet paper are placed in the toilet, guests may be required to pay for repairs.
  • Water: The property uses tank water only. The water has been chemically treated for hygiene purposes. Please consider minimising water use where possible.
  • Recycling: Please recycle where-ever possible in the front bin provided
  • Power: The property is on two phase power only. Try not to use too many electrical devices at once or it may trip the meter. If this occurs, please ask for a key to access the power box, located in the shed.

Off limit areas

  • Please do not enter the garage ( next to the accommodation ). The electricity meter is in the garage, and if the meter trips please contact the host before entering the garage to reset
  • Do not enter the host’s residence (the house with the curved green roof) without an invitation. Some services such as massage are held here.
  • If unclad, see ‘Clothing optional’ for more information about off limit areas

Hot tub

  • The spa is set to turn off at 10pm. It is set at 38 degrees. Do not change the settings without speaking to the host
  • The spa water level will get quite high with more than one person, so be mindful of spilling water.
  • Use common sense when using the spa, including if you have been drinking alcohol.
  • Do not eat in the spa or drink from glass bottles or glasses ( drink from plastic or metal containers only )
  • Please shower before using the spa, including washing off sunscreen
  • Please place the cover back on the spa once you leave. The spa will lose a lot of heat otherwise and may not be warm for you the next day.

Clothing optional

  • Lucid life is a clothing optional environment. If you have any questions about this, please speak to your host.
  • You may be unclad in the back third of the property. A map is provided to guests. Always cover up if leaving these areas.
  • If unclad, carry one of the Hammam towels ( the cotton ones with the stripes ) at all times. Use a towel when sitting down on furniture.
  • The treed area to the south of the property is owned by a neighbour, and the farm on the west and north sides has workers on weekdays. Occasionally you may be visible by them. Cover up if you see a neighbour or worker who might be able to see you.
  • It is a good idea to wear shoes when walking around the property even if unclad, to protect from stones, prickles and insects.
  • Consider using sunscreen in the warmer months. It’s amazing how quickly you can burn

Check out

  • Make sure to turn off the lights, air conditioning, and any electronics when you leave the house. Don’t forget to close the windows and lock the door ( if the host is not at home when you leave). 
  • Late check out is generally available (additional fee applies)
  • Report any damages and/or breakages in a reasonably timely manner. Damages exceeding the security deposit amount must be paid by guests and will be reported to Airbnb or other short term accommodation platform.
  • Wash the dishes and place the garbage just outside the front door before checkout.

Compliance

  • If you forget to follow the rules, the host will explain and ask you to change your behaviour. However, repeated failures to follow the rules may mean being asked to vacate the premises. For serious breaches of the rules, you may be asked to leave immediately
  • Where property damage occurs, including cigarette smoke smell, you may be asked to pay for damages.
