Thank you Augie, is that the same road the Fish Trap is on, or am I turned around?

JwwJ, I'll have to check out P&P as well. This is the first I have heard of that one.

I know where Shela's pot was, I don't know where it is now. I have also heard good things about Sogo's. I don't know where that is either. If I am standing at the Ferry dock, can someone direct me. I can picture landmarks (Mongoose, Roundabout, Woody's etc) in my head if that helps you help me. Any ...

I know this is an exposed hike. So, if we take plenty of water, sun protection, and wear shoes or sturdy sandals could an active 5 (nearly 6) year old handle the hike?

We are taking our 5 year old with us for our trip in May. We did get him a snorkeling set but we assume it will take him some time to get use to it, or he may not get the hang of it at all. So, we ordered him a Sea Window Snorkeling Raft. I was just curious if anyone has used one of these. He will h...

Thank you all for the information. Thank you for the detailed information Lindy. I actually looked up your trip report, very helpful. I will be much happier if I have AC, do you recall if it would be much trouble to just push the two beds together in the room with the AC? Furniture in the way etc? T...

We just sent for the contract for Kia Ora villa in Chocolate Hole. We were looking for something for around $2,000 with a nice pool and deck area and a nice view. How modern the villa was didn't matter much. I think we made the right choice, any comments? Also,as a point of reference, we stayed at S...

I did not. Thanks for the heads up Pia. Even with that, the extra two hours is still on my mind. Mostly because our only other trip we arrived around 3:30 and managed to get over to STJ and get our car and to our villa before dark. Still being pretty new to this makes me a little wary of navigating ...

If you could get to St. Thomas at 3:30 pm instead of 5:30 pm and save $100 a ticket would you fly Spirit over American? I've never flown Spirit so I have no context for comparison. It will be myself, my wife, and our 5 year old traveling.

Thank you for any advice.

Hello, We are heading to St. John in late April. It will be myself, my wife, and our 5 year old. What matters is that we have two bedrooms in the same house (on the same level not required), we HAVE to have a pool, and we would like a "close" water view if possible. The budget is around $2...

Thank you for the suggestion and the link. It's nice to get perspective and pics from someone who has stayed there. It's on our short list. It looks like the sunset views are amazing.

I like many of you have looked at hundreds of villas on line for our next trip to St. John. I figured I would get some suggestions based on your experiences. This is our second trip. Our first trip was last year and we stayed at Sea Scape. We loved the big lap pool, privacy, and proximity to the wat...
