We stayed at CBC in Nov. 12 in Cottage 10, and my wife did not apply any buy spray....and she wishes she did. She had over 600-700 bites from no see ums, an she was itchy as anything. I used a Deet product, and I still was bitten. Will we go back? ABSOLUTELY! We bought a West Indies itch spray that ...

Here is something that you would LOVE! Stay at Castle St. John in Coral Bay... castlestjohn.com It looks like a Castle...tell Jonathan than Tom and Debbie referred you- this will help you get a discount. This place has 2 bedrooms, and a hot tub if you like. Very cool view of Coral bay and across the...

I only have 1 regret about CB Boutique hotel....that we only stayed 1 night at the beginning of our trip. Denise and David understand HOW to make a guest feel special. EVERYTHING about this place is excellent. Great value, and a perfect breakfast. We will include this on our next trip to STJ. It is ...

Thank you for your insightful experience. I am sorry you had to learn from such a poor airline, but, you took the time to educate us on the Forum. I will never, ever fly on Spirit. Hope that helps you feel better.

We had our first rip to STJ in Nov. 2012. We started with 1 night in Cruz Bay Boutique Hotel before moving on the Cinnamon Bay for 6 nights, then to St. John Castle villa in Coral Bay. The Boutique Hotel was in a word...fantastic! We will stay again during our next trip. The owners were ever so grac...

OK, if you saw how the Wounded Veterans enjoyed a program this past November at Cinnamon Bay Campground, you would be very impressed....especially when you learn that http://crabbyswatersports.com/ gave the full use, at no cost, of ALL of the equipment needed by the wounded vets. I made it a point t...

After reading all the posts on the forum, we decided (I did) to do carry-on for our 15 day trip last November. It was the perfect decision! Next time, I will use Connections (be sure to get the correct address for each location)....OR, if we are staying at Cinnamon Bay Campground again, we can send ...

I had a rental all set from STT, but changed my mind, and rented on STJ. Here is why I changed my mind: we were going to be on STJ for 15 days. THe first day, we stayed at the CB Boutique Hotel. It didn;t make sense to rent a car in STT and have it sit. Then, we went to Cinnamon Bay Camground, and s...

Please email me off list. I work in the dementia field, and know of several key resources that you would likely find to be very useful and very helpful.

This is ANOTHER great example of WHY I love this forum! I will store this idea in my brain for using on our next trip....which will be delayed, because we will have 4 kids in college at the same time this Sept., and my wife is back in college too....so a total 5 in college at the same time means no ...

We also stayed in Nov. 2012...rooms on second floor above the restaurant were clean, and all were similar. I really think the rooms are excellent, and a terrific value for STJ. The owners were VERY attentive, and it was obvious to me that they have a 5 star mentality. They were expecting us, and hea...

You just gave me a GREAT idea! My plan is to retire in 2020.....and now, my plan includes a trip to the rock the next day!

Looks like another place to add to my "must do" list for our next visit to STJ!

We made our reservations for the NPS Guided hike, and it was terrific. The ranger was excellent, and it was an example of why to use the National Park Service Programs. 1. Do bring the water...yes, most of the hike is downhill, but there are a few uphill areas, and the end of the end goes through an...

My wife was VERY worried about being able to see while snorkeling, and me too! Well, we went to Crabby's (decided they would get my business after I saw all the wounded warriors at Cinnamon Bay Campground, and found out that Crabby's DONATED at kayaks and supplies) and Crabby's has a mask with 2x an...
