This was the most effective and affordable way to see the whole island. It was an unforgettable experience.
However they were many inaccuracies in the description of the van. Only one back window opened, restricting air flow, the inside back door is also broken and rigged with rope. There were suppose to be can of butane, but there were not. The van had multiple mechanical issues that I had to fix myself during my stay, or were brushed off by the host. The air conditioning did not work, which led to windows down always. There was a moldy container left in the van when I had received it and the cooler had water in it.
I do not think this was an awful stay, I truly enjoyed waking up on the beach and having the freedom to drive around in a cost effective manner. I do think it was advertised to be a better set up than the reality. When I needed something it would take awhile to get a response from the host.
All this being said, the host was very nice and apologetic for any mistakes and did reimburse me at the end of my trip for my out of pocket expenses on the van.
