Getting around
Uber - safe and reliable and readily available. My city bus and the Red hop on and hop off bus is within close walking proximity from 11 The Retreat. But if you want to do sightseeing, hiring a car is the most economical.
Що взяти з собою
What to pack
It is always advisable to pack a mix of beach, hiking and going out clothes. And always have something warmer at hand too. Winter (July - Aug) is the rainy season.
