Chila’s Studio is a great base if you want to stay right on Front street. Food was easy to access as was local hangouts and the Split. The studio itself has everything you will need plus a new AC unit that really came in handy. Besides the AC, this space is not new and truly fits the island surrounding it, but it is well kept.
Chila provides bikes and kayaks to you when they are available and they were a great bonus! We used the bikes to get around and the kayaks ended up being a whole day trip for us.
We happened to stay during some severe thunderstorms and it became clear just how loud rain plus a tin roof can be so be forewarned if that is something that will bother you.
I would stay here again and recommend this to our friends traveling on a budget. Chila is a great host and the ice cream shop right below (run by her daughter) is dangerously close so be warned! (We had some everyday!)
