The coziness of this hotel is incredible. It’s a very old hotel so that is one of the things I love the most. It doesn’t have air-conditioning but it’s so cool on the island you don’t need it. Plus, you should not be in the room during the day you should be outside on the island exploring swimming, making memories. Room 304 is always my favorite. When you wake up you open your eyes and the sun is coming right through the window never missing a sunrise. 🇺🇸
