Article 19: Natural environment - Possible presence of marine and land animals
As our villas are located by the sea or in the middle of nature, the local ecosystem may occasionally bring in animals such as neighbourhood cats, small rodents, or other wild animals to approach homes.
We would like to point out that :
- Our villas are new or continually renovated, maintained with a extreme demand for cleanliness, and are subject to a rigorous professional cleaning before each arrival.
- The occasional appearance of animals has absolutely nothing to do with hygiene or home maintenance.
- These visits can occur only when windows or doors are open, or when food is left out in the open, naturally attracting local wildlife.
The tenant therefore undertakes to :
- Keep openings closed when not in use,
- Do not leave food accessible,
- Adopt behaviours aimed at avoid any animal intrusion.
No compensation can be claimed for the natural and exceptional presence of outside animals, inherent in maritime and natural environments.
