Anegada Day Trip

We are thinking about taking the ferry to Anegada for the day. What is there to do? What would you do and where would you spend your time?

Re: Let It Rain

It has been raining on and off today. Just saw some lightning. I have never seen it so dry and brown.

Re: Sandcastle Hotel

We have stayed at Perfect Pineapple. Ask for the room above the store as the A/C worked good in that room. We also stayed in a 2 bedroom where 1 bedroom A/C worked and our bedroom didn't. It was miserable but it was June. It is a basic room with no frills but for a couple of days it is fine. Sandcas...

Re: Sandcastle Hotel

I have stayed at Sandcastle a couple of times in November. We have also stayed other places on Jost for a couple of days. I LOVE Sandcastle, as we won't stay anywhere else now on Jost. The beds are comfy and the showers have great water pressure. We always stay in an A/C room so can't comment on the...

Cimmaron Rentals

Has anyone booked thru them? I have never heard of them and there is a house that I am interested in. Also, if anyone has stayed at Sweet Surrender, tell me if you liked it.

Re: How do I call my villa rep? And other newbie questions

We always leave our stuff on the beach when snorkeling. Make sure you ask flight attendant for an empty water bottle, they are good to make coladas for the beach. :lol: As for a trip to the BVI's, check out New Horizons II, they go to the Baths, snorkel stop, lunch on Marina Cay and Jost Van Dyke. I...

Grande Bay Villas

I am looking for a 1 bedroom unit for 4 nights starting November 19th (checking out Friday, November 23rd). I want to be on an upper floor so I can have a view. What should I be looking for (floor, building, names of units, etc)? Any suggestions will be welcome.

I paid $75.00 for private land taxi and $350.00 for the water taxi for four people. Our plane landed around 2:30 and we got to Jost at 4:00. It is a great way to go.

Anegada

They do sell blenders at the hardware store in the Marketplace. I know from experience as I usually tear up one from over use, you know making coladas for the beach. I should just go ahead and tell the villa rep to just go ahead and have a spare in the villa I'm renting.

Thanks for comments so far. I figured Divine didn't have a view since there wasn't a picture. Magic View is not large enough from our group. Need 5 or 6 bedrooms.

Palm Island, Grenadines

Has anyone been? If so, what is it like or any of the Grendine Islands? We like St John because it is so casual. We love to snorkle, drive around and explore things to see and do. I will not bring heels or a dress on vacation. Of course when we are on Jost I'm fine sitting at White Bay. After 11 tri...
