Safety measures

Dear guest,

We understand that the landscape of travel has changed and in these evolving times, your well-being and peace of mind are paramount to us. Our properties at Emerald Stay have always been uniquely tailored for your needs, and they continue to be so:

  • We pride ourselves on respecing your privacy and minimising face-to-face interaction through our tech-empowered properties. Online check-in, digitised front door systems, and virtual concierge services are all part of our standard service.

  • Rather than worrying about finding a dining spot in a crowded restaurant, enjoy the comfort of home-cooked meals in our fully equipped kitchens. Create your own culinary masterpieces at your leisure, adding a personal touch to your stay. Or even better: hire one of our private chefs to do so!

  • Our homes offer ample space for you to unwind, reconnect with loved ones, engage in exercise, or simply soak in the natural beauty of your surroundings.

As the world moves towards a post-pandemic era, we’ve implemented an extra series of measures aimed to enhance your experience and safety. We continue to adapt to serve you better, always prioritising your needs:

Enhanced hygiene measures:

At Emerald Stay, we've amplified our cleaning protocols in line with global standards, focusing on thorough sanitisation of our properties to ensure your health and safety:

  • We always maintain appropriate social distancing norms during any necessary interactions.

  • Every member of our staff follows stringent handwashing routines before entering a property.

  • Our teams are equipped with essential personal protective equipment, including masks and gloves.

  • We have a dedicated and trained cleaning team well-versed in current health and safety regulations.

  • High-touch surfaces, such as remote controls, door handles, and fridge doors, are given particular attention with the use of EN 14476 virucidal cleaning products.

  • Disposable paper towels are used where possible, with cleaning cloths thoroughly laundered between uses (minimum at 60°C).

  • For your safety, we remove all consumables such as toiletries during each clean, regardless of whether they appear to be used or not.

  • All towels and linen are meticulously cleaned at high temperatures with specially formulated products to ensure any potential virus is eliminated.

  • Frequent ventilation is carried out in all of our homes.

  • We have ramped up disinfection of all shared touch-points within the common areas of the building.

In line with our commitment to your health, we continue to closely monitor and adapt our cleaning and safety measures, ensuring a stress-free stay in the heart of nature.
