We have spent time reading recommendations from the CDC, major booking providers, and other accommodation companies and decided to write out our procedures for cleaning & disinfecting Great Expectations after each guest checkout going forward:
Cleaning & Disinfecting the Villa
Our cleaning staff started wearing protective gear back in February including gloves and facial coverings. They also keep us informed
Following a group’s departure, we open up all windows and doors and put the fans on high power to help ventilate the rooms.
We and our cleaning staff thoroughly wash our hands before and after each cleaning as recommended by the CDC.
We clean the villa first, then follow-up with disinfecting. We will be disinfecting all surfaces including counters, faucets & handles, wall switches, remote controls, keys, cabinet handles & pulls, and door handles.
As before, all linens will be washed including sheets, mattress covers, towels, and blankets.
vacuums will be emptied and disinfected after each cleaning
Trash cans will be disinfected during changeovers
All cleaning materials and supplies will be cleaned and disinfected after use.
Amenities
We have always provided new soap, shampoo, and conditioner in each shower and will continue to do so.
We are adding personal hand sanitizer for guests in all bathrooms and kitchens.
While things are going to change over time, we are working on being able to have facial coverings for any guests that want them.
Our guests’ safety is extremely important and we are not only up front with our guests about island goings-on, we expect our guests to be honest with us about their well being.
