The host was very nice. The ac worked wonderfully. The locals were extremely receptive of us and as friendly as could be. The place was clean but it was in a poverty stricken area. When I first got there I was afraid to go outside.
We did find someone to take us to Bread and Butter Island-perfect place to snorkel, swim and spear fish.
The only ocean view we had was a small rectangular area between two trees, as it was not on the ocean side of the street. It was obscured by low income houses, some of which had chickens running around.
There wasn’t much to do in the town at all, especially for women, except for eating. All of the restaurants we ate at were overpriced because it’s considered a tourist area and I’m unsure of why that is. The exception to this was Queen B’s Restaurant. It was right on the ocean with Spanish music playing and a bar with swings on the porch. Gasper, our waiter, was exceptionally nice and his mother, Felicia, was a great cook. The food was delicious.
