A typical BnB. Shared bathroom and a bedroom. NO air conditioning and the provided fan kept quitting plus, of course, it was not capable of cooling the air.

Best place to stay on the island!
My stay was amazing! Very clean and comfortable, I was treated like family and enjoyed the stories about the island. She was a great cook plus always able to get cold water or tea 24/7. I wanted to stay longer but it was time to return home. I will return in the future.
