No, there are no chain car rental places on STJ, just local folks and they all have very high fines if you take the car off the island. If you wa...
Hey Lisa, I got all that rum home in glass bottles just fine. I was a little worried, but it all made it safely. Party at my house! 🙂
Baked in the Sun was open every day we were there last week. We got an amazing birthday cake there, but never made it back for sandwiches. 🙁 The...
I took both my camera and phone apart right away and followed what I'd always been told if you dropped them in water and mine didn't work either. I tr...
That's good to know about Hotwire. I've rented from them a lot for other destinations but wouldn't on STT because I would need my car on St. John and ...
I think my next camera will be the Olympus (or maybe it's Fuji -- same thing) point and shoot that is waterproof. Perfect for these trips. I also...
I've waited a lot longer at other airports than I have at STT. I think it depends partly on the rental car company, how many people are working, how b...
I never went to a "bad" beach while I was there, but I do have some that I like more than others. For example, Hawksnest, which a lot of people mentio...
I ruined my camera, as well, and it didn't take much water at all to do it. I slipped on the rocks walking from Ivans to Soggy Dollar and my bag took ...
Of course, White Bay is my absolute favorite, but it's not technically on STJ. Well worth a day trip, though! We just hit the high points this tr...
On our trip last week, two of the girls in the group decided they wanted their own car for the week. They called Courtesy the second our plane landed ...
When I was pricing flights for my trip, I looked at Atlanta, Memphis, Louisville and Birmingham to see if I might find something cheaper, but ultimate...
I don't remember why we didn't wait at Maho for sunset, but it's on my list for next time.
I really liked Maho. We spent a lot of time on this teeny tiny beach over by Vie's (which I guess is also owned by her family) that was perfect for ou...
I should've brought more shirts with sleeves to wear after I got sunburned. I just ended up baking everywhere I went because I brought mostly sleevele...
We were all talking about this yesterday on our gorgeous ferry ride back to STT. When we arrived it was miserable and rainy and the owner of our ...
I've seen tickets a few days out from Louisville for $500, but I'm not sure if I've seen them much cheaper. You can always get them now and then regis...
One of our girls did it yesterday with no problem. I was through customs and all that jazz in under 30 minutes and I had to wait to borrow an ink pen!
Having just gotten back, we are already planning to take a cooler next time for several reasons. The villa did have two smaller coolers, but the large...
It does say on my itinerary from Delta that I must be at the Atlanta airport and the STT airport (there were others on the list) at least 60 minutes p...
