Brochures
Protect our environment! Give your travel pamphlets and brochures
to friends, relatives or acquaintances. Use the Ipod guides .
Bugs & Insects
Ants and other insects, including gnats, are not there to intentionally
make your vacation intolerable. They are a part of our eco-system and
have a right to live. In the southern countries we have learned to live
with many types of insects. Don't be scared if a small creature wanders
through your Accommodation. Treat it as a small friend, to be helped outside.
Avoid leaving out food or leftovers otherwise you might find a trail of
industrious ants. Mosquito and insect repellent can be obtained from the
local supermarkets.
Doctors / Hospitals
Most towns and cities on Mallorca have medical clinics or facilities.
There are also several hospitals on Mallorca. For the one nearest you
as well as emergency phone numbers, please refer to your information pamphlet
in your apartment.
New Ones : Son espases , Son Llatzer , Clinica Juaneda , Policlinica Miramar .
Drinking water
The tap water in southern countries should by no means be used as drinking
water. In many parts of Mallorca the water is still delivered by Aqua-Potable
and is chlorinated. This water is potable. In general, the water is extremely
high in calcium, and a anti-calcium build-up detergent for dish washers
- or washing machines is always recommended. Film build-up on glasses
is practically unavoidable. Bottled water is the most recommended source
for consumption including for cooking and making coffee or tea. This can
be purchased at the local supermarket.
Eating and Drinking
Food is prepared differently all over the world. As a rule we advice
you to get used to the local gastronomy. Note that beverages are often
served very cold in resort areas. Also be aware that alcohol consumption
in warm climates has a stronger effect on the body. At the beginning of
your vacation we urge you to eat and drink moderately, so that you can
adjust to the climatic as well as other conditions. ( www.Mallorca-restaurants.com )
Flight Changes
This will be confirmed before
departure and with the issue of the travel documents. Any changes of flight
scheduling can only be made by the airlines.

Garbage Collection
/ Disposal
In this region the garbage is picked up frequently and in the early morning
hours. This can be a disturbance to some wanting to sleep in. The necessity
for frequent pick-up is on of sanitation. The authorities do not want
the garbage to be left out too long or pile up, particularly due to the
high temperatures.
Heating / Air-conditioning HOtels in Mallorca
Heating or air-conditioning can be expect only when it is explicitly indicated
in the lodging description. Heating is made available only in the cool
seasons (October to April). In general, all our accommodations offer either
electric heat, or heat by hot air.
Noise
Especially in southern countries, there is vibrant indoor and outdoor
night-life, which often begins late in the evening. Consequently, the
noise of merry-makers can easily be carried through the night air. Before
getting annoyed, keep in mind that you are in a resort area in a Mediterranean
land. Even a traditionally peaceful area by day might be filled with the
sounds of fiesta at night.

Power supply
In southern countries electric circuits are not always as able to accomodate
all the conveniences. Each Apartment or house offers a limited electric
(kW) capacity, which is determined by the city's public works departments.
On a practical level, this means that you should avoid running too many
home appliances and heat at the same time. You might trip a breaker. Please
be mindful of this and have patience for occasional interruptions of electricity.
If you have longer power outages, please inform our Travel Agency.
Service & Care
In many countries some services which might be taken for granted and expected
to be performed to high standards, are sometimes not available, or at
best, improvised. Lack of experience is frequently made up for through
additional kindness. For special requests, disturbances, or defects, please
contact and inform your travel agent immediately. They can best influence
corrective or remedial action and help you to enjoy your vacation.
Swimming pools rules .
The water in the Swimming pools is frequently cleaned and strongly
chlorinated due to frequent use and hot temperatures. Chlorinated water
can irritate eyes. Please pay attention when swimming and avoid allowing
your children go into the pool immediately after pool cleanings.
