We’re so happy to have you on board. Octopus Oasis is a small, personal project that we pour a lot of love into, and having a great cleaning team is the most important part of making it all work.

We’re an Airbnb Superhost and a Superb Booking.com score. Our guests consistently tell us the apartment feels like a real home, not a rental. That’s because of the care that goes into preparing it.

We want this to be a good working relationship for everyone. If you ever need anything, have questions, or want to suggest a better way of doing something, please just reach out.

Listing: View on Airbnb — you can always check the listing photos to see how things should look

There are 2 key sets. You keep one. The other stays in the lockbox for guests — please always put the guest set back when you’re done. One of your keys opens the supply cupboard inside the apartment.

Anna sends the monthly schedule on WhatsApp ahead of time. You’ll also get Hostkit email notifications with checkout dates (please send us your email address).

Last-minute bookings: Sometimes we only know the night before. Anna will message you straight away. If you can do it, wonderful. If you can’t, we completely understand that life happens. Please let Anna know as soon as possible so we can contact the replacement.
