Kool Rooms Guest House (just west of the last stoplight in Santa Cruz, cell tel. 876/312-8735, tel. 876/387-9417, vernonbourne@yahoo.com, US$50) has four rooms with two queen-size or two double beds in each room with air-conditioning, cable TV, and en suite bathrooms with tub and shower. Run by roots rock reggae singer Vernon Bourne, a.k.a. Singing Vernon, the guesthouse is a good place for young travelers looking to unwind and kick back in rural St. Elizabeth. You're likely to "buck up" other popular reggae artists during your stay.
