Our hosts were super organized and had a book of restaurant and beach suggestions. The view is amazing, but comes at a cost. When they say a car is a necessity-they mean it! We're used to walking everywhere and you can't walk safely into town on the one lane road down the hill. You have to book some type of transportation (car, scooter, motorcycle, quad). US citizens will need to get an international driver's license and most likely need to drive manual (stick shift). We found Golden Beach the best after visiting several on the island. The Little Green Rocket in Parikia has amazing food and excellent service-highly recommend!
