It might pay to have your car shipped here. Many of the cars here are beat to death and sorely over priced!
The roads are rough & pitted with pot holes, we have cars designed to be driven on the right, where we drive on the left here. Between that, rum, tall grasses, pot holes, goats, cows & mongoose & newbie statesiders forget to keep left............many cars here are wreaked. Not to mention town streets are narrow & everyone drives a huge gas guzzling suv.......brake lights & turn signals are non existent.
A good clean non wreaked well maintained cheap car is a needle in a haystack here. And if you find one, its way OVER priced, unless you find someone leaving island & desperate to sell.
Another thing, I see you are looking for a rental, sign NOTHING until you actually see it in person!!!!!!
The pictures could be beautiful..............but the neighborhood could be CRAP! Or the rental is crap, but the neighborhood is BEAUTIFUL.
Standards in the states...............are sooooooooo different here & how little you get for the money is sometimes shocking!!!
Hope this helps...................FYI, I love this place & its quirkiness. Many fit in.many more flee! Its all in what you can adjust to. All in all I wouldn't live any place different!
