Numbeo

87.5/100 on the water drinkability and accessibility index, which Numbeo reads as “Very high”. This one is crowdsourced from residents rather than measured.

Lonely Planet

Tap water is generally safe to drink in towns and at most hotels and restaurants, though it's always wise to ask first. For villa rentals, check with the management company regarding the filtration system.

Safe nationally still means ask locally. Older buildings can carry lead or copper pipework, and a single street can differ from the network feeding it. If you are staying somewhere old, ask your host.
