Re: Noseeums
Hey Jimmy, best thing we found was SPF 50 and above sunscreen helped against them being able to bite thru it. Also gold bond helps with the itchiness if bitten the other solution we found to be somewhat effective is Sawyers insect repellant.
Be good

Re: Overnight in STT
Here's my 2 cents. At that point I'd be pretty ready to go home. I'd stay at Emerald Beach right at the airport and call it a day. Ditto! We stayed at Emerald Beach once before flying back and it worked out really well. Place is very nice with easy access to Airport. Great outside pool and bar area.

We stayed at Andante a few years back, the views are fantastic and you get the best of both worlds with sunrise's and sunsets. The only drawback was the decks are wide open to the sun with only a couple of small pergolas. With the southerly breeze it helps a little with the heat. The villa itself is...
