the house was exactly as pictured on airbnb. the inside did not smell of smoke and we had no problem with bugs. the property is surrounded by trees that are beautiful and provide shade during the hot day. you can walk up and down the beach. it is not considered trespassing on other people's property. we did have many people stopping in front of the house wanting to sell us things. we did feel safe here. we enjoyed. swimming right outside the house and using the kayak. the sargassum is is piling up on the beaches and smelling strongly it's certain points up and down the beach. it's endemic to the Caribbean and this could happen on any of the other countries to. we enjoyed our stay here.
