Other things to note 🏖️🤔¢❗== OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: == PRICE: 👉🏼 - Price is for 6 persons per nightly stay. It does NOT include VAT Tax. Like in many countries and their hotels, motels, B&B's, for all tourists, we typically have to prepare an official invoice for the customer after check-out, which will have an added VAT Tax component that the customer is responsible for in Turkey. Therefore we would have to collect a 10% of the VAT (tax) upon entry, since Airbnb does not collect and is not internal to Türkiye. This is as per new law dated October 2023 and regulations dated December 2023, which took affect as of January 1, 2024. - For each additional person above 6 people, and above 2 years of age there is an additional ($40) per person per night fee ( when entering the correct number of visitors during booking this is shown by Airbnb ), either to be paid to Host when checking in or through the original Airbnb booking. When booking please select the correct number of people that would be staying accordingly. 👉🏼 ==ADDITIONAL FEE: - Please NOTE: Guest will pay to Host 10 % of the total cost as Utility fee (gas, electricity, water, pool, garden) DURING check-in ( upon entry ). 🏖️🌲🐳💦🌍🌎🌏== Help us save the planet and make life sustainable. - Please help us reduce our environmental impact 🌍and our carbon🔥🌪️ footprint by using water 💧and electricity 💡sparingly ⏳and intelligently. Some things that may help is reusing towels as long as possible, limiting shower ⌛🛀🏼🚿time and using the dishwasher after it is full and TURNING OFF 📴💤🫶🏼 air conditioning when leaving for outside or when it is not 🥶needed. Since Istanbul has water shortages and like many other mega-cities, and has higher carbon emissions, we wish to reduce our impact. - When inside if Air Conditioning is used, guest must keep all doors and windows closed. We sit on a windy hill, which is a blessing, which provides a cool sea breeze.
