Well, this is unexpected. When you booked an adventure holiday at honest Lou’s trustworthy travel agency, you didn’t quite have this in mind. Now, after two cheap flights and loosing all your luggage at the airport (so much for skipping travel insurance), you finally arrived at your “hotel”, a white colonial house with a boarded door, a mailbox in front of it and no beach in sight.
