Hockey boy: The snorkeling at the bottom of the steps and down the beach about 100 feet to the right is very good. The house is at a nice location on this side of the island as our favorite spot is Haulover North and it is an easy drive However once you get to Casa Tua you won't want to leave it is ...

Just back from Miss Lucy's and the Tourist Trap: Miss Lucy's Fritters: a solid 7.5. Very good but the double half twist failed to live up to that of Aqua Bistro. However a late entry for Miss Lucy's team was the Fried Grouper Ruben. Solid 10's by all judges. In fact I had to fight off my spousal jud...

Search for the Holy Grail

The party at the end of the world is now in day 3. We are in Coral Bay in a great villa directly on the water near Miss Lucys called Casa Tua. The views are just fantastic and the sound of the waves are so loud and so soothing. Since we've arrived we have been on a crusade to locate the Holy Grail, ...

Party At the End of The World - 2012

New Years Eve we will be arriving STJ. Heading straight to Coral Bay and ringing in the New Year! Can't wait to get back on the rock one more time.

We're getting close enough to launch time now that I'm getting pumped up. What a great way to bring in the New Year.

We have stayed at Latitude and it is one of our favorites. Great views. Close enough to the ocean to listen to the waves crash on the shore. Large pool. The master is in the main house and the2 other bedrooms are in a separate building. If that is not an issue for the kids think you should give it s...

1996 St. Croix We were young and dumb but had saved enough for a 4 day trip to St. Croix. We left Indiana in knee deep snow and arrived a few hours later in paradise. The water color was breathtaking and we were immediately addicted. The condo we stayed at seemed like the Ritz to us at the time but ...

We have used Dohm's on our last several trips and are always pleased. They also book private taxi service for us from the airport to their ferry through Christopher's taxi. Saves a lot of time and makes the transfer from the airport to STJ much more relaxing. They will take you to Jost straight from...

We stayed at Sea Stone a few years back and really like it. It has a nice floor plan for 2 couples. There are 2 equal masters on opposite ends of the house. The other bedroom is actually in a separate building connected by an outside porch. Comfortable furniture for lounging and relaxing outdoors. T...
