We enjoyed our stay in this old plantation house with charming antique-y features. Clean and comfortable. Modern kitchen well-supplied while rest of home reflects an earlier age when area was known for its sugar plantations. House was a bit musty when we first arrived due to humid environment - just open all the windows to air out for awhile . Very private, quiet location. Backyard garden was a pleasant, restful spot. Picked avocados and some fresh limes from backyard trees.
This is rain-forest country - expect mosquitos, tiny "sugar ants" in the kitchen (keep food sealed or in frig) and little gnats that seem to get in through the slatted windows. Harmless gekkos scurry about on back deck - one did make its way into the house & headquartered under the frig. but wasn't a problem. There are noisy coqui frogs at dusk & neighborhood roosters crowing in early morning. Light sleepers might consider earplugs. Comprehensive house manual provided practical tips & accurate area info.
