Welcome to The LightHouse

---

The apartment is very centrally located. All facilities (beach, old town, supermarket, restaurants) can be reached by foot. It is not necessary to rent a car for your holiday. 

There are several airport transfer companies and also UBER and BOLT are widely available in Albufeira. Also the regular TAXI stand point is located right in front of the apartment.

You will get the keys from INTERHOME. Please, follow the instructions on your INTERHOME voucher to receive the keys. 

If you arrive by (rental) car you have two possibilities to park:

1. There is free parking on the street across the apartment building and in the surrounding streets.

2. There is a surveilled underground garage under the building, against payment.

Please, pay attention not to leave the apartment without the keys or not to let the door slam shut! The door can be opened from outside only with a key, not with the door handle!

Tip: do not leave the keys in the key lock. If you step outside and forget the keys in the lock from the inside, the door will have to be broken open by a locksmith and you will be kindly asked to cover the costs.

If the door gets shut and you forget the keys somewhere inside (not in the lock), than please contact INTERHOME about how to receive a new set of keys (this service could be subject to a call-out fee).

Thank you for your kind understanding!

The air-conditionings in all 3 rooms work like follows:

To cool: choose the mode "snowflake" and set ca. 18 degrees. This means that the air-conditioning will operate until the room reaches 18 degrees.

To heat: choose the mode "sun" and set ca. 25 degrees. This means that the air-conditioning will operate until the room reaches 25 degrees.

We kindly ask you to use the air-conditioning only with all the doors closed and when you are at home. Please, note: in the rental price the air-conditioning is included until a reasonable use. In case you use the conditioning irresponsibly (for example you leave it on when you leave the apartment), the costs of the access use could be deducted from your breakage deposit. Thank you for your collaboration!

BBQ: it is prohibited to use a barbecue on the terrace because of disturbance to the neighbours and safety reasons.

Sun umbrellas are NOT available at the apartment. The reason is that the living room terrace is very windy. Sun umbrellas not only break easily but also could potentially injure others if they fly away and land in the pool area or on the street. They are very dangerous.

You can have a nice breakfast on the living room terrace without an umbrella, it is fresh and in the shade in the morning  hours and also the period around sunset is very comfortable without sun umbrellas on the terrace.

However, if you wish, you can buy a small beach umbrella in the supermarket and use it at your own responsibility.
