Kevin was kind enough to give me a tour of Coconuts in January and I agree with Jenn, the views IMHO are some of the best on the island, it is a lovely property and is spacious. I have stayed at Plumeria (next door to Coconuts) before Kevin purchased it and it also has the great sunset views, it is ...

The owners are wonderful and very accommodating, I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. When in August will you be going? We will be down from August 16-30.

I wholeheartedly agree with PSU Fan, I stayed there on the 20th and there was another couple leaving the next day and another couple arrived the day before we left. My friend and I enjoyed talking with them and discussing how we were enjoying STJ. We always had the pool to ourselves but it is a shar...

Congratulations on your new home purchase! Great trip report, I believe there were quite a few forumites on STJ that same week when it rained so much. I just returned 2 weeks ago and re-entry into reality gets harder everytime I go down. We are not scheduled to go down again until August, I'm not so...

Thanks for posting the link poidog! It slipped my tired mind, lol.

Looking for a great place to stay in Chocolate Hole? I stayed at the newly opened St. John Suites "Sugar Cane Suite" last month. Talk about perfect... 1. Beautiful views of the south shore of STJ, high on the hill. 2. Suite was large, beautifully decorated with high end furnishings, linens...

Ha! Someone with a great sense of humor!

Enjoyed reading your TR, don't you just love "Plumeria"? The view really can't be beat. I stayed there in October of 2012 before Kevin and his wife purchased it and I hear he made some wonderful improvements. I don't think I would be a fan of going over the holidays due to the crowds but i...

Hi Minde- I went solo last January to STJ, I did not camp but had a great time, I did everything I would normally do but go over to the east side, Budget overbooked their jeeps and I got stuck with a car and almost got stuck on the switchback after Trunk heading to Maho. That was the only time I wis...

X on STJ is above the Beach Bar and Joe's Rum Hut upstairs. When will you be down in January? My friend (newbie) and I will be there the 20-27th

Beautiful pics, It was interesting that the octopus was out in the open instead of hiding, thanks for sharing!

Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Wow, I got goosebumps looking at the pics of your mom learning to snorkel, I feel exactly the same way you do wanting to share the love of STJ with your family, I don't think I will ever be that fortunate to get my mom there, so happy that you are having a perfect trip, enjoy every minute!

As usual Papabou, great trip report, I hope I can say that I'm still going to STJ when I'm 70, wishing you a blessed holiday season

Papabou, we stayed at GB this past August, the suites we stayed in are owned by a fellow forumite and it was perfect, we had a 1 bedroom suite with a studio suite connected that would work very well for you, Mack and your wives. My husband was so impressed that we bought 2 weeks in "H" sea...
