It was not roughing it. It is VERY casual; you don't need to bring even one pair of long pants. But, the accomidations are clean and well kept, just not luxurious. The restaraunts are very good, but not cheap. Breakfast was part of the package at 10 bucks a day. Lunch was around 12 with tip and drink. Dinner tended to run 25 to 50 depending on courses and drinks. The rental car was a small Suzuki jeep that was well worn, and we did our best to add to its wear and tear when we went four wheeling through the Washington Slagbi park at the north end of the island.
If you are used to 5 star digs, you might not find it to your tastes. On the other hand, if you want to dive and can handle Holiday Inn level accomidations, go for it.
