We will be spending one night on St. Thomas on the way home after a week in St. John. I don't know whether to stay close to the airport and just hang out at the hotel or stay somewhere closer to more activities. We'll get there around noon and leave early the next morning and have our three kids with us. We won't be renting a car so we'll need taxis for anything we plan to do. Thank you all for your help on previous posts - this board is great!
I would recommend Emerald Beach (a Best Western hotel). It is literally 1/2 mi from the airport and has a beautiful beach. All rooms are beachfront as well. Price is around $150/night. Good for families. Nice pool. Within 3-5 mi from Charlotte Amalie by taxi, which are readily available. Can catch the ferry to St. John as well from there.

Thanks for the info. We had looked at the Best Western since it is so close to the airport. I just wondered since we'll have the whole day in St. Thomas whether we would want to be closer to someplace like Coral World. Would it be worth going there since we'll have the kids and we will have just had a week of beaches and snorkeling on St. John? Maybe it would be a bit of a change.
