Re: Winsome House

Thank you so much SuefromMA. What you described sounds perfect to me. The views are what attracted me to this villa. We stay in Great Turtle which has a similar view several years ago with our kids, and it was my favorite view we ever had. I loved the peaceful mornings so much, it was hard to head f...

Re: Off season Villa suggestions-July 2017

We are staying at Winsome House in April. It's 2 bedroom with a pool. Just a little over budget.

Re: Winsome House

Thanks Hoosierdaddy. I love the view and the location. I hear the last past of the drive may be rough. Just wondering if we will feel OK driving back after dinner or if we should plan more dinners in and more lunches out.

Re: Aruba/st john

My husband and I just returned from a week in Aruba and we had a wonderful time. We have been to St. John 13 times and Aruba 3 times. This was the first time that I thought I actually enjoyed Aruba more. The last two visits to St. John were a little sad because of how crowded the beaches had become....

Re: Coral Bay Villa Choice Help needed

We stayed in Great Turtle a couple of years ago and it is my favorite villa in 12 trips. The views and outside furniture really made it unforgettable. We had kids in the 3 lower bedrooms but the youngest was 14. It felt very safe to me though because of the way the villa is situated. The driveway is...
