COVID-19 Safety Measures for Guests
Our vacation unit has been cleaned and prepared for you with our normal high cleaning standards as well as Enhanced Cleaning suggested by the CDC to address the greatest COVID-19 risk areas.
1. To address the risk associated with the possibility Respiratory Droplets may be in the air, one or more of the following processes has been used:
a. The unit has remained empty for more than 18 hours. Research has show Respiratory Droplets fall to the ground within 3-hours. 18 hours gives time for the remainder to fall and deteriorate so they lose their strength. The Condo’s windows & doors were opened during cleaning to further dissipate any droplets. When the situation does not allow 18+ hours between guests, the following alternative was utilized:
The use of electrostatic technology to spray & sanitize the air and surfaces.
To address the less concerning risk that arises from Touching Surfaces or Objects that may have the virus on them, the following has also been done:
a. A thorough cleaning of porous and nonporous surfaces;
b. In addition, your cleaner has used a CDC recommended, EPA N-list virus killing sanitizer/disinfectant on all high-touch surfaces such as (but not limited to) door knobs, light switches, remote controls, sinks, countertops, bathrooms, hangers etc.
Although these extra measures have been taken, no guarantee can be made that our guests will not contract the virus during their stay on Maui. Please exercise caution and use prevention measures during your stay
COVID-19 Safety Measures
Exercise Prevention during your Stay
Because the primary method of spreading the virus involves receiving respiratory droplets from infected persons, your primary prevention measures should focus on:
Practice social distancing.
a. Keep at least six feet away from other people, to keep droplets away from each other when speaking, coughing, or sneezing.
b. Avoid groups of more than a few people.
c. When out in public or around other people, consider wearing a mask/facial covering. Most places of business in Hawaii require wearing a facial covering to enter.
d. Avoid touching your face with unwashed hands.
Secondarily even though it is possible to catch the virus by touching a surface on which the virus droplets have landed or which has been touched by those who are sick with the virus, it is no longer considered to be a primary method by which the virus spreads, it is still considered wise to practice the following:
Wash hands often. The preferred method to clean hands is to wash them frequently using soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Wash frequently but especially when returning from public places, after using the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing.
If soap and water are not available (e.g. when in public) use hand sanitizers
When using common areas such as pools, tennis courts, etc. follow posted safety rules.
It is recommended that all guests visit the Maui COVID-19 website for current guidelines. https://www.mauicounty.gov/2370/COVID-19-Coronavirus-Information.
