A Note from our Back Up Generator:

Dear Guests, 
Hello, I am the lazy back up generator. I normally rest all day and let the solar panels make all the energy.  But when unconscientious guests use too much energy and wake me up, I become grumpy and make noise.  In order to keep me quiet please:  

• Turn off all lights and electronic devices when they are not being used/charged or no one is inside the cabaña.
• Don’t run the fans unnecessarily; there is generally a pleasant breeze running through the cabañas (Remember that fans only keep your skin cool, not the entire room).
• Don’t leave water running longer than necessary, and rinse yourself off with the poolside shower before swimming.  Running water and a dirty pool mean running pumps, and pumps are large consumers of electricity.
