Star Apple House Staff & Service

Pansy our cook, Lynette our housekeeper and Michael our "major D"

A Star Apple day starts early with Michael preparing the pool and sun deck/lounge area for the days activities.

By 7am Pansy will have placed a large pot of Coffee & a bowl of fruit on the verandah. Full breakfast is served when all our guests are ready, but usually about 9. "We normally go for a run before that and then try to run back up the hill, very interesting"! After that you are free to do what ever, Chill by the pool, explore the extensive grounds (Michael will at some point during your stay, take you on a field tour to introduce you to the numerous types of Fruit trees, plants, and birds at Star Apple.)

Pansy will handle grocery shopping and cooking. She will pre-purchase your first few meals plus pantry staples, then finish the week's shopping after meeting with you to discuss your preferences. At the end of each week she will present receipts and reconcile your account. A typical grocery budget for a week is US$300 approx. per adult, less for kids.

Lynette, wearing her chambermaid and laundress hat, will care for every service detail ... providing a daily supply of fresh linens and flowers, returning your neatly folded laundry each day, and turning down your bed each evening.

Michael and Frank will maintain the pool and grounds immaculately each day. Wearing his "Butler Hat" Michael will serve, tend the bar and generally facilitates.

Available on requests are Masseuses, Nannies/ babysitters and drivers.

Note: Staff gratuity is not included in the rates, it is however at your discretion We suggest 10-15% of your total stay cost.
