Paradis Island / Villa Manual

Electric Source

During sunny days, villas can be a bit warm as they currently do not have air-conditioned units. They use solar power and generator to supply electricity. You may spend your time outdoors during the afternoon.

At night, expect the villa to become cooler since the lake and island are on the mountain top. There are electric fans to support ventilation and generator.

Solar panels and batteries supply the lights on the island. You may charge your phones using this solar power. The generator will be used at night during dinner. You may take this time to charge your phones, gadgets and other essentials.

Indoor and Outdoor Activities

The best time to swim in the lake is in the afternoon when the water is usually at its best temperature, not too cold and not too warm. Feel free to use the noodle floaters, adult and kids arm floaters, life vests, life buoy/preserver, inflatable boats and kayak.

Stay and hang out in the garden area hammocks or in the tree house to breathe some fresh air with more than 20 trees spread around the island.

Insects and Frogs

When it is mango season, feel free to get some mangoes in the trees. There might be some flies around the area, especially during the mango season. They may put some fly papers and anti-insect coils indoors and outdoors to put them away.

Presence of moths, weaver ants and a couple of frogs can be seen around the island so make sure to check where you are sitting or standing at.

Water Source

They utilize deep well and water pumps, as there are no water connections. There may be times when water flow is weak to supply faucets and showers. You may use the traditional pail and dipper when taking a shower.
