Kristen it's less than 5 minutes from the dock. Buy everything but booze. The booze was chaepest at Pine Peace on STT - at least that's been our experiences.

Kristen, We've used Discount for all of our recent trips, 08/28 - 09/04 being the latest. They are very nice and easy to deal with. After landing at 3:30 we were on the 5:30 ferry. We missed the 5:00 ferry by minutes. Anway it is very easy to get to Red Hook. There are small Starfish signs along the...

John, we arrived on 08/25/10 at 3:30 pm on a US Airways flight. Dependable picked us up at the airport and took us to their office, right around the corner, to fill out the paperwork. We then stopped at the Food Center and easily caught the ferry to St. John. I've only rented from Dependable so I ca...

Renting this house next June/July for 9 nights. Has anyone stayed here before? If so pros and cons.
Thanks,
Pulley

ms411 - I didn't pay for it but I'll find out. We have started renting our cars on STT and taking the car ferry. Talk about saving money!!!

We were on St. John before, during and after Earl. We went to Hawksnest, Cinnamon & Truck Bay beaches. They were all in excellent shape. On Frinday the 3rd the visibility at Hawksnest was at least 20'(good but the normal 40'+) and the coral was in very good shape. There was some broken Elkhorn c...

Lindy, that's not silly at all to me. We have switched houses because of the same bathroom issue. Don't want to share if I don't have to. I hope you have a great trip!

I have to agree with Gromit and second Pine Peace. The Cruzan $3+ cheaper at Pine Peace than on STT.

We've rented La Papaya twice and loved it!

Lindy our friends who stayed with at La Papaya stayed at Blue Papaya last year. They said it was very nice but actually preferred La Papaya. Their parents said just the opposite though.

Monkey Point is awesome and so is Mary's Point. I didn't like too deep and couldn't see much & the Caves were boring to our group. The Indians is my favorite snorkel spot.

For our 15th trip to St. John we've rented Ocena Palm Villa near Coral Bay. Has anyone ever stayed there? I know it looks great on the web but sometimes you never know. Thanks!
