Suggesting that dining room and yoga studio are secret bedrooms isn't journalism, it's just a nutty theory with no evidence to back it up.

Do we not remember that it was on the resorts for shutting these down? Why? So that they could raise their prices and monopolize tourism shelter. THUS making it difficult for locals to find decent places to live. So we're going after the people who DO have nice places that aren't nuisance matters? I wish the TVR regs would somehow separate the places that are suitable to BE TVR's from the places that take advantage of the common worker on the island and border on unsanitary/uninhabitable. A few ruined it for many. Remember TVR's enabled a lot of locals to afford to live there. And Mr Brosnon contributed something like $100K dollars to the elementary school's playground/etc and has always supported the island. He is an "active" resident rather than a once a year visitor.
