Because we are in the rainforest, storms can sometimes bring down trees on power lines, temporarily affecting the grid. While this is beyond our control, we have some helpful tips:
Hot showers: Since we have 80-gallon insulated solar-heated water tanks for both the main house and guest houses, use hot water sparingly until power returns or more sun shines.
Meals: Our gas stove and BBQ allow you to cook even if the power is out, and dining before sunset can be helpful.
Lighting & Devices: Villa Chill is equipped with emergency battery-powered night lights throughout the houses, and we recommend keeping your devices charged when possible.
Relax & Unwind: Power is restored within an hour or two unless a major storm occurs, so we encourage guests to embrace the jungle atmosphere. Enjoy an early night’s rest, listen to the sounds of nature and breezes coming off the Pacific.
