Hi!! My husband and I are planning a trip to STT in May to celebrate our 5th anniversary.

We like all-inclusives, diving, and getting to know the natives. Any suggestions on hotel? Should we book the renatl car from home, as it may be less costly?

Any suggestions on places to go, restaurants would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Susan

The Wyndham Sugar Bay offers an all-inclusive package. Heard good things about it, but, since I live here, have never stayed there.

Definitely rent the car from www.budget.com. You can pick it up at the airport, and it is less than getting one once you are here.

Lots to do here! Make sure you bring you passports, or bith cert w/ photo ID, so you can visit the BVI. Some of the BVI trips you might want to take would be New Horizons II, Captain Nautica, Breakaway, Limnos. Dive with Chris Sawyer out at the wreck of the Rhone. Great dive! Also, Underwater Safaris and Blue Island Divers are good. Dive In at Bolongo is a good outfit, too. Google them. Make sure you get to Paradise Point for a sunset on Wednesdays (or Thursday. Thursday has a jazz and dinner thing...very nice). Coral World is cool. Atlantis Submarine and BOB Underwater Adventure are both cool. BOB is www.bobusvi.com. Google Atlantis. Make sure you try a milkshake form Udder Delight at the dairy by Magens Beach. INDiGO Restaurant is great, and inexpensive. Other places for good food/atmoshphere: Craig & Sallys, Agave Terrace, Room w/ a View, Bannana Tree Grill, Tavern on the Waterfront, Fagioli's, Old Stone Farmhouse, Frigate East, East End Cafe, Oceana, Noche...oh, the list just goes on and on! b You two are going to have a GREAT time! What day is your anniversary on? My b-day is on the 25th (37 this year! Ugh!)

Great suggestions, Marty! Happy birthday. My birthday is on the 9th--hence the reason for my upcoming trip. I wanted to ring in 35 somewhere warm and sunny!

We are also going in May to celabrate DH's 50th birthday (May 19th.) We are doing the AI at the Wyndham Sugar Bay. Bolongo Bay Beach Club also offers an AI option, but when we were planning it came in higher than the Wyndham and didn't look as nice.

We booked the New Horizons II to BVI, Island Tours of St. Thomas and St. John, going to Coral World/Coki Beach and plan on Paradise Point on Wed. night. Marty on STT gave great places to see and do. I took alot of his recommendations when planning our trip. (I'll be 37 also in 3 weeks Uggh!)

44 more days to go....
