Apartment hunting! Help!

Hi! I am not currently living on the island yet, but am going down there in September. I have asked all the contacts I have there, and everyone said you just have to get down here and start looking for one, usually by word of mouth. Obviously you will need to have an vrbo or something booked for when you first get down there. There are also a couple of facebook groups that are just for apartment listings down there, I would check them out!
