Planning to stay at any particular villas with a pool? Good for you. However, like any home, owners of villas with pools require their tenants to remember certain things:
1.A swimming pool will require regular maintenance. Check with the owner if you and your party are required to clean it yourselves, or if you can arrange for professional pool cleaners to come in and clean the water and pool itself for you.
2.A swimming pool can be enjoyable but is also a hazard if you have children or elderly people in your party. Children can fall in and drown, even if there is very little water in the pool. Elderly people might slip on the poolside and fracture something. Even adults who are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves can also be injured in a swimming pool. So use the buddy system when you are staying in villas with pools ? meaning, always have someone with you at all times.
3.Villas with swimming pools become especially dangerous during or after the tenants have conducted a get-together. Sometimes, liquor glasses or softdrink bottles may fall in the pool without anyone being aware of it, so the broken glass at the bottom of the pool may cut someone badly later on. A drunk guest might fall in the pool and have to be fished out so he doesn?t drown. If you are planning on hosting parties at any villas with swimming pools, try to avoid serving liquor or at least keep an eye on guests and family members who may have had too much to drink.
4.Find out who should contact if you encounter problems at the villas with swimming pools you are planning to stay in. For example, if the drain of the swimming pool gets blocked and water cannot be sucked out of the pool for cleaning, should you contact the owner of the villa himself? Or just look for a pool drain professional? Maybe the right person to contact is the agent? At any rate, inquire before finalizing your stay at the villa.
5.Can the agent for villas with pools transfer you to a similar type of villa (at short notice) if problems crop up and your party cannot stay at the villa you previously selected?
6.If you want to terminate your stay before the date when you are expected to leave the villa, how do you go about it? Will you receive a refund on the days you did not use? Will your deposit be returned to you? There is usually a process that should be followed in villas with swimming pools by the tenants before their departure is finalized, so get to know this stipulation very well.
Staying in villas with pools can be enjoyable if the rules governing your stay are clear and easy to understand. If anything seems confusing, clarify the issue with your agent before you arrive at the villa.

Winterizing Your Swimming Pool
1. If thru wall skimmer inlet and outlets are used, the skimmer must be blocked off with a block off plate to prevent any water from lying in the skimmer. The return fitting must also be blocked off by using a plug on the inside of the pool. It is very important that the return fitting not protrude into the pool and that water is not allowed to flow into the skimmer. If this is not followed, when the ice in your pool forms it will grab onto your skimmer and return fittings, and if the ice should shift it will rip your wall at these locations.
