We chose to stay in a condo so we could cook our own meals and try to save some money due to the poor exchange rate at the moment. It was great! Marti provided everything like hand wash, dishwashing tablets, cleaning products, washing powder, extra towels and beach towels, beach chairs, snorkels, even plastic wrap and ziplock bags for leftovers. The pools were great (and deep!) and we had them to ourselves more often then not. We only used the air conditioner once, having the slatted windows open was enough for a nice breeze. The walk to the sunset bar at turtle bay resort wasn’t too long. All in all staying at an Airbnb on the north shore made it much more relaxing for me as I felt at home.
Oh, give the cashier your phone number at Foodland to get the locals discount.
