Please note our property is totally Off-Grid, with no connections to mains power, water or gas. Our power is captured from solar and wind and then stored in batteries. All water is from rainfall and stored in tanks. As our resources are limited, please be conservative with power, water and gas usage during your stay. Drinking water is only available from indoor taps. If you need a steam iron, there’s one located in the laundry.

NBN Wifi is available in all buildings and across most of the property. The Guest Wifi password is “blueberry”. Music can be played on Hacineda’s Echo speaker via bluetooth or just say “Alexa play music”.

AC.png

The Hacienda is a passive solar building and does not require air-conditioning. Please use ceiling fans as needed. We recommend keeping all windows closed during hot days and opening some at night, if needed, as there is a cool breeze most evenings.
