Housekeeping Services
Cleaning of the rental property will include washing linens and towels, changing bed linens, dusting furniture, sanitizing bathrooms, cleaning and emptying the refrigerator, oven, microwave, countertops, cleaning/vacuuming floors, and preparing the villa to receive new guests.

Spring Cleaning
This will be required each year in all villas/units in addition to the normal cleaning services. This will include washing baseboards, cleaning of fans, plants and all high shelves and moving all items to clean behind furniture and under beds.

Carpet Cleaning
This need to be done periodically and RPM has its own facility for carpet cleaning as well as access to a dedicated professional steam cleaning service for those badly marked situations.

Pool & Spa Service
The pool is an extremely important feature of your holiday rental and should be maintained in a clean and sparkling condition. We will ensure it is thoroughly cleaned and the relevant chemicals checked and balanced. Water levels will be topped up in order for the filtration system to work efficiently. The pool and/or spa heating will be turned on/off on changeover days at the request of the homeowners.

Lawn and yard maintenance
This is another service that is very important to the presentation of your villa and is performed regularly to ensure it is well maintained. On a monthly basis we will also weed and feed your lawns and the shrubs surrounding.
Pressure Washing Paths/Driveways & Pool Decks
Due to the humid Florida climate, it is highly recommended to pressure wash pool deck areas and pool furniture several times per year to keep them clean, presentable and to avoid algae infestation. As these areas are prone to spilled drinks and dropped food, keeping the decks clean will also assist in fewer pest infestations as well as avoiding stains.

Repairs & Maintenance
On occasion accidents do happen. We can provide a quote to have the necessary repairs addressed. Routine maintenance may include removing slight marks on walls whenever possible, replacing light bulbs, replacing batteries, air conditioning filters, sweeping outdoor entry areas, and picking up litter from the property .

Pest Control
The chemical treatment of indoor as well as outdoor perimeters to deter pests and assist in the elimination of insects is a necessary requirement in a tropical climate. Occasionally, either nests under the eves, mud daubers around the windows, or spider’s nests are found in the pool area or areas surrounding the windows or doors. Unless the infestation is a large one, it can normally be alleviated. In the case of large infestations, specialist pest control may be required.
