Re: Split vac Jost/STJ

We are doing the same thing! 4 days on STJ at Grande Bay and then 4 days on JVD at the Sandcastle! I can't wait to wake up on JVD and be the only ones on the beach!! We're going in July - maybe see you there -- you'lll recognize me. I'll be the one with the huge non-stop smile!

JVD newbie!

Been here many times on day trips - but we are trying our hand at staying on island for a couple days next year! Question - we want to depart JVD on July 4th (early ferry) - and head to STT to stay for the night - flying home on the 5th. Will the ferries be running on regular service on the 4th? We ...

Re: Coming Back! Need Villa help

We stayed in Le Lapin II - AWESOME villa! JUST far enough out of town but not too far. Views of Hart Bay were amazing. Great pool! You will love this villa for the value! Actually considering it again for a return trip!

Why yes - funny you should ask! I stumbled upon a picture of the beach bar the other day. then I couldn't help myself .....went back and looked at old photos of past trips! We haven't been in a while....we were looking for a celebration trip. I am just ending a nasty little fight with Lymphoma - and...

I would HIGHLY recommend a private water taxi on this day. We arrived on carnival day last year - no way we could have gotten in and gotten cars if it were not for our fantastic on-island villa reps. You will not be able to get into town at all - there's a great little market now - I totally forget ...

While I totally agree with all statements (okay -MOST of them!) I think most of us are missing the main point. Dear LORD - I'm on vacation. I want to leave the doors open, I want to have the windows open, I want to smell that wonderful St. John smell, and I don't want to be concerned that someone un...

Exit - I totally understand your point. However, after our experience last July I believe there is a huge issue with "landscapers". Our house was cased and entered while people were on a different level. My fear is that one of these incidences might eventually turn violent - either by the ...

We flew them in July and won't do it again. We typically drive to Charlotte to catch that WONDERFUL US Air flight - non stop into STT. So we figured driving to Myrtle - no biggee. I love the Myrtle airport - small and really very nice. The trip started out great (JUST after the strike ended) with cu...

Crazy Cracker??

Did I read somewhere that Crazy Cracker is now out of business? We were in there ONCE - truly Crazy! Just to drink - not to eat so I can't comment on food or wait staff. But the bar was TRULY insane!
