Oh, and dining on Anguilla is incredible. More 5-star level restaurants than you can possibly visit during a trip. Loved every meal there.

I'd like to reiterate what PA Girl and msgcolleen wrote about Anguilla. I have visited St. John 4 times over the past 10+ years, and my extended family has been over a dozen times. We all love the quiet, off the beaten path feeling of St. John, and the obvious beauty the island has to offer and the ...

The Owners of Jasmine couldn't be more accommodating too. Just so you know. They're great people. Be sure to tell them that Scott Teel sent you! I'm working hard to earn some "brownie points" for my next stay in their villa!

HA!

We actually did both. Because it was our honeymoon, we stayed for two nights at Cuisinart Resort, which was fabulous. We couldn't afford to stay there the entire 9 days we were on the island, and probably wouldn't have wanted to do so anyway, but it was fantastic the entire time. Beautiful, large ro...

Much like the author of this post, we were looking to branch out beyond the familiar St. John for our honeymoon and found another oasis on Anguilla! I loved the island, and felt it was a nice departure from St. John, though each island has its own personality and neither can honestly take a "to...

We actually did a wonderful day trip that hit the Baths, Cooper Island, AND Jost in the same day. The key is the winds and seas the day of your trip. Your captain will tell you whether or not it is possible that day given the weather conditions. Trust me, if the seas are up, you may want to save The...

V.I.B.E. Charter Review

We are a group of 6 adults, all of which are experienced boaters on small boats from 21 to 42 feet. After having rented a bareboat charter from Nauti Nymph the past two trips to St. John, this year we decided to go with a small crewed charter for several reasons: (1) Wanted to go to The Baths, and w...

Nothing at all! Just done the ferry from Charlotte Amalie every time I've visited, so was looking for a different experience.

I'm working on something for my "special someone" while I'm down in a few weeks, and here's a couple ideas I've tossed around: 1. Private Chef to prepare dinner at the Villa (don't have to dress up, drive, etc....just relax in the villa and be catered to by a personal chef!) 2. "Coupl...

Anyone want to share Dohm's on Nov 4th?

We're arriving at STT about 4:20pm on Sunday November 4th from Charlotte, so I was hoping to schedule Christopher's Taxi & Dohm's to take us from Red Hook to St. John around 5pm or so, depending on how quickly Chris can get us from STT to Red Hook. I asked about pricing, and it is just a little ...

Stayed in Ciellodonna last year (December 10-17th). The house was great. We loved opening all the doors to the kitchen/living/dining areas. The deck was awesome, and we caught a meteor shower. Others are right though, there are no sunset views, and th epool gets NO late afternoon sun. That was a pri...
