St. John Car Rental . . . it's across the street from the Beach Bar.

According to the villa's website, Morgan Point is in Great Cruz Bay, not Cruz Bay.

Good luck with your planning!

Not sure if it's okay, but I've done it a few times. Took a taxi. Walked right past the rangers' booth, nodded to a gent who was cleaning up. I believe the bathrooms were locked, however.

Thanks for your help, everybody!

Looks like we'll catch the show on re-runs!

Help!

We're addicted to "Downton Abbey" (airs tonight on PBS), but where we're staying on STJ we only has Dish TV. It seems to carry every network under the sun except PBS, and no local stations.

Thanks.

I worked at a radio station in Indiana in the late 60s, and one of my jobs was to run the control board and read the news during a Sunday afternoon Classical music show.

I've toured Star Villa, across from Battery Hill.

Although it does have a private pool, I don't believe it has a sunset view.

PS: gvldybg, I sent you a PM.

There aren't many villas in Cruz Bay, as you probably know. You might consider Gallows Point Seaview Cottage, across the street from Gallows Point. I believe it has everything you want, except the pool. I understand, however, that you can probably access the Gallows Point pool. Looks like a week's s...

The doggies are NOT going to be happy!

I suggest you call Verizon and ask about your options while in the USVI. The information you receive may not be consistent (or even in-sync with Verizon policy), but it's important to be on record at Verizon that you called seeking information before your trip. If you need to negotiate a refund, it ...

I suggest you contact the friendly folks at Noah's Little Arks with your question. They run the dinghy concesssion on the beach in front of the Beach Bar. They might have some ideas.
