Transportation
The Property Concierge knows taxi drivers on the island, which ones will make the climb up the hills, and she can arrange for pickups in advance.
Although you don’t have to rent a car to stay at Tingalayo, it does come in handy. And, although many of the roads you will be using are paved, having a four wheel drive on the island is a must. You will need the torque they offer to get up the steep hills. The Property Concierge can arrange to have your rental car waiting for you at your port of entry.
