Re: Ritz Carlton to Acquire Maho Bay?
Nice One RickG,
Pulled one on my brother today telling him our villa (4/29 arrival) was not going to be available and we would be staying somewhere else. Joke didn't go over well, he's over it. Someone told me of the possibility of a sub tour thing on STJ way back when; thank God it never happened.

Re: Car Barge Schedules
Wow, what a disaster the whole car barge thing has turned into. Last few trips we have rented from Amalie on STT but, as other posts have said, looks like we are going to go with someone on STJ. Who are the best folks to rent from on STJ? Have a group of 7 adults; and looking to probably getting 2-3...

Re: Construction behind grande bay?
What the heck is with these people that want to transform STJ with all the new marina proposals? I'm all for progress and a property owner's right to build but, I'm sure I'm the only one who is scared to think what STJ might look like in the future.

Re: Philly to STT
Just found RT non stop from JFK-STT end of April 2017 for $377.00. Think I'm going to book it. Seven of us going and even chipping in on a van service from local limo company it's still worth it. Seats aren't the best but the times and price are!! Does anyone know why when booking on Expedia you onl...

Re: Philly to STT
I'm in the same boat jaybfloyd. Heading down with family in April and yes, JFK always has the lowest prices but the trip from LBI area in Jersey is a haul. I can be in Philly in around a hour 15 with drive to JFK with out any traffic then parking is 2 hours. Been checking prices every day and the fa...

Re: Decision Decision
Thanks Everyone for the great info. After reading about the paving going on and seeing the jeep cam again, we prob will go with Cinnamon Hill or one of the other villas in the area. We have some experience driving on rough roads on STJ from years past. We use to stay back in the 70's & 80's at t...
