Re: How do you leave the villa?
I normally wash all the beach towels the night before we leave. All linens and bath towels are stripped and left in laundry room (or on bedroom floor when the laundry room was in a dark, damp basement-like area. All dishes are loaded in dishwasher, which we run when we leave. All garbage taken with ...

Re: What are you reading?
Lindy, I really enjoyed the Outlander books - particularly the first two. I lost a bit of interest during the third book, and have never read the last three (though I own them all). Kinda think it might be time to pick them up again. I do remember I was quite obsessed! Beach1 - Defending Jacob going...

Re: What are you reading?
I hadn't read a book in a while that I really enjoyed. However last weekend I was in Boston and stumbled into a used bookstore where I found the book Love Water Memory by an author I had never heard of before: Jennie Shortridge. I am halfway through the book and enjoying very much. It is about a wom...

Re: A little rant about an unpleasant woman at Battery Hill
I agree. She was out of line. Amazing how inconsiderate people can be.

Re: Costa Rica
We spent 10 days in Costa Rica in April 2012. Three different areas.... We flew into San Jose and had a private driver take us to Arenal. We liked having the private transportation - I know a lot of people may rent their own cars, but since we didn't need/want a car in any of the locations we were v...

Re: Dear Spirit Airlines
Great post!
After one flight with Spirit a couple years ago, I vowed never to fly again. Can't see my opinion changing any time soon.

Re: any recent viewtiful info out there?
My experience is not necessarily recent, but we stayed there perhaps six years ago. We thought it was a very nice villa. Nothing negative to report!

Re: Very Sad Times
I am sorry you are going through a difficult time. Just remember...St. John isn't going anywhere! It will be there when you are ready and able to make the trip. I hope that time comes soon for you.

Re: which ferry?
I agree. Take the earlier ferry. When we were there in May, it took nearly two hours from the time we arrived at the airport until we were in the gate area (also traveled on a Saturday. And also agree, carry-on really doesn't save you that much time. Even if the lines are shorter, wouldn't you rathe...

Re: Trip Report - May 4-11
smilesfromMN - Not 100% sure our friends fully got St. John. They really liked it, but I don't think they fell in love with it like we did during our first trip in 2002. They are not quite as outdoorsy as we are.

Re: Trip Report - May 4-11
Maggy, I had the same concerns about the noise and the neighbor as you are having. I actually reached out to the neighbor (as I recall I got a hold of them through Trip Advisor). The neighbor confirmed that noise from the pool carries right to their home. They also have issues with exhaust from the ...

Trip Report - May 4-11
We returned to St. John on May 4th – our 6th trip, but our first visit since 2007. This was also our first trip with friends! So fun to show them the island! Our flight from Chicago was uneventful. We met our friends at the airport where had planned a private taxi (Christopher’s) and private ferry (...
