House rules

Since Villa Sunset is partly our home, lovingly furnished by us, we'd be delighted if you treated it with the same care we do. A few simple rules help everyone – you, our neighbors, and us – feel comfortable:


  • Check-in: from [4:00 PM] / Check-out: by [11:00 AM] 
  • Maximum occupancy: [X] guests as per booking – please check with us in advance before bringing additional visitors
  • Quiet hours: 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM, especially on the terrace and in the garden – Paúl do Mar is a small, peaceful fishing village, and we kindly ask you to be considerate of our neighbors
  • No parties or events: the villa is meant for a relaxed holiday, not large gatherings
  • Smoking: outdoors only (garden/terrace), please – not inside the house. Please don't leave cigarette butts or wrappers behind or toss them into the garden – dispose of them only in the ashtrays provided or in the bin. If you can't find an ashtray, just let us know
  • Pets: Please note that pets are not allowed in our holiday home. As the well-being of all our guests is our top priority, we keep our home completely pet-free out of consideration for allergy sufferers. Furthermore, we have put a lot of love into the high-quality furnishings and flooring; since accidents or wear and tear can never be entirely ruled out with animals, this allows us to maintain the highest standard of hygiene and care for every stay. An exception applies exclusively to certified service animals upon prior consultation with us. Thank you very much for your understanding!
  • Fitness room: please treat the fitness room equipment with care and return items to their place after use
  • Barbecue: feel free to use the barbecue house and garden – please clean the grill after use and dispose of waste properly
  • Parking: for registered guest vehicles only
  • Mindful use of energy and water: as we live on an island, we kindly ask you to use lights, fans, and water responsibly
  • Linen change & mid-stay cleaning: Guests booking 8 nights or longer enjoy a complimentary/included linen change and mid-stay cleaning after the first week, to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Our cleaning team will coordinate the exact time with you in advance

Please leave the villa as clean and tidy as you found it – let us know if you have any questions about check-out cleaning


If you have any questions or special requests, then we - Alina and Roland - are always reachable for you by phone or email.
