Re: The Tourist Trap - closing?

What terribly sad news this is. The Tourist Trap was one of those "special finds" that always brought a smile to our face and happiness to our tummies!! Simple pleasures served in a true island setting. Nachos and drinks were/are "the best". Sure hope that we will get to enjoy th...

The Tourist Trap - closing?

I just quickly saw a post on Trip Advisor that this will be The Tourist Trap's last season? Is this true?
We will be visiting at the end of April, 2016 and sure hope that they will still be open!!
Any news???

Inner Visions - Grasshopper condition?

Hi,

Does anyone have an update on the condition of lead singer Grasshopper (Philip Pickering) of Inner Visions?

I am hoping that he is making progress in his recovery from his stroke.

Thank you,
Sue

Inner Visions - Grasshopper

Does anyone have an update on how Grasshopper is doing? I read a few posts back that he has suffered a stroke.

He is an amazing man and a fabulous entertainer. We are so sad to hear of this and are hoping that he is recovering well.

Re: Aria, Bayview - Ajax Peak??

Thank you, all... Aria was definitely a close contender. But, we were lucky enough to get a "re-booking" discount thru Destination St. John which (for a 9 night stay) made the difference in cost from choosing Aria to choosing A Winsome House only a little over $300 for the length of our st...

Re: Aria, Bayview - Ajax Peak??

My goodness. Apito is amazing - but, we are trying really hard to keep the average per night cost at around $300 or a tad higher. But, would prefer closer to $275 - as we are planning to stay 9 nights. We are even considering a lower priced 2 night stay at a place like Estate Lindholm in order to be...

Aria, Bayview - Ajax Peak??

Hi, everyone! We are looking forward to an 8 or 9 night stay next April or May, 2016 (in Off Season). We like the Ajax Peak area. Stayed in A Winsome House and LOVED it. Are thinking of returning there (if the price is right) OR are exploring trying to stay in a bit cheaper villa in that same area. ...

Re: Anguilla, Bonaire - other?

Thanks, everyone! I really appreciate all the comments. FYI: We have done Guavaberry Spring Bay on VG 4 times, Mango Bay on VG once and have done Sibonne' on Turks and Caicos. We just need to decide whether or not trying "something new" is worth the risk. We have to "wrap our heads ar...

Re: Anguilla, Bonaire - other?

Thanks for the replies. I wouldn't be surprised at all, if after I do I bunch of research, that we end up back "home" on St. John next year, too!!!

Re: Anguilla, Bonaire - other?

Thank you so much. The more information, the better. I will check out your Grand Cayman suggestion. I appreciate all the detailed comments on the islands.

Looks like I have a LOT of research to do......
