The water is safe to drink on STT, STX & STJ.

We drink bottled water while there. We also drink bottled water here at home. Bringing bottled water with you could be challenging. I'd suggest buying it there.

iT DEPENDS WHERE YOU Are staying some villas have good treatment and some don't ask your managment company if it's ok to drink. The towns have public water suply and the water is fine.

I'm a restaurant owner on STT and my water quality, in accordance with local regulations, is tested monthly by a water testing laboratory. I do NOT serve tap water to my customers and I do not drink the tap water myself because it doesn't taste too good.

When I go out to eat at restaurants I always order bottled water.

Yes, the water is generally safe and no, you do not have to bring bottled water here because bottled water is readily available at the supermarkets and convenience stores.
