Penny was a very welcoming host, working hard to ensure we had everything. Her apartment was clean and comfortable with incredible views of the water and a nice beach just outside the building. She provided verything we needed for the beach: towels, chairs etc. Listening to the ocean while we were sleeping was magical. As were the sunsets.
However, the building is rundown and used primarily by people who don't live there. There is a paucity of restaurants to choose from in the area, forcing you to drive to another town as it's mostly fast food. There is a large homeless population in the area although we didn't interact with them. This is probably the least attractive coastal part of the island as the mountains while driving in the area are brown, not lush and green like the rest of the island.
If you are looking for a great host with a nice apt with many amenities, and a nice beach and the other issues aren't important, this is a good place to stay.
