Ratings and reviews

Opportunity for a great useful app, but once you've read all the static information just delete it. Why not include links/details for tours, sightseeing etc? Edit: it now has broken links (like to shuttle maps etc). So frustration with errors out weigh the info it provides. Uninstalling now and reverting to websites.

App doesn't open even after several attempts. Says 'this app has a bug. The developer will fix'

NOT a cashless environment. No doubt the app is helpful but it seems as though the creators of this app only want you to know what they want you to know. Eg. This app states that H I is a cashless environment however this is not true. There are several businesses on the island that do accept cash. Also there are multiple BBQs on the island however this app fails to mention them or have them marked on their map. Furthermore there are some errors with the timing of some classes at the sportsclub.
