What KIND of restrooms? Portapotties? Seems kind of stiff for a portapotty. If they are flush toilets, where do they flush TO?

I don’t care if it 50 cents or $2. It doesn’t really matter as long as these toilets are clean and have a toilet paper available. Clean is the main condition. The last thing I wanna see after paying any money is a pile of poop all over the seating area...

If it is a straight pipe out into the water, that is not good and that has been known to happen on the island.

Like you, Wendell, I can’t help but wonder where the septic was located and how permission was granted. And as ruralcarrier opined, I truly hope it’s not another pipe into the ocean.
Respectfully,

But according to the few sources , it has a septic system and been pumped out regularly. And I’m sure it’s an easy way to check- in a 90 degrees weather you can’t hide the smell, lol!

They supposedly just went into operation so there could not have been a lot of pumping going on yet. I wonder where the water supply to flush comes from since there has not been running water at Mullet in years.

Thanks so much for the pictures! It seems kind of expensive, but they do look nice.

Sorry, are you talking about the floor or the walls?? My GUESS is that the floor is laminate flooring. With regard to the walls, yes they are wood, it looks like, but without putting too much of a spin on it, what are you expecting there to be on the walls??

I really hope that the floors are laminate or tile. The wood would make it almost impossible to wash off if someone makes a MESS... The urine will absorb into the wood, and in the +30C heat, in the enclosed space.... the smell will be an issue. I really hope that they thought about this when they built these cabins.

If it were ME, I would have polyureathaned (sp??) the wood. Pretty easy to do.
