Re: heavens gate

we are booked at heavens gate in early august for 10 days; what sold us was the reduced offseason rate (about 50% of the normal offseason rate); could you let me know if you get any replies? i posted the same question but no one answered

STJ in July ( page 2)

Casa Bueno is located nearer Coral Bay. We stayed there last July during the torrential rains, but it was beautiful anyway. Very modern, and the living and sleeping spaces are AC'ed, but we never used it because you are so high up on the hillside, the breezes are constant all day. Both management co...

July in STJ

We usually go to STJ in July, sometimes in August. The closer you are to water, the worse the mosquitoes get. Of course, if you are higher on a mountainside, you should get some tradewinds to cool you off. If your budget does not include taxes and jeep rental, then by all means consider Sago Palms. ...

"newbie" friends-villa possibility

we can recommend Casa Bueno; stayed there last summer, and since that was our 8th straight year in STJ, we have a lot to compare it with; great location just 5 minutes from North Shore beaches and 5 minutes from Coral Bay; can't remember the exact rental rate but you can find it on VRBO; hope this h...

we stayed at Amani for a week and it is terrific, but at that time there was no A/C in the main living spaces; if you're visiting during the summer, it can get toasty! the villa changed ownership since we visited, so maybe the new owners installed A/C

casa bueno

we stayed at Casa Bueno for a week in July 2010; it was terrific! The location vis-a-vis the North Shore beaches was perfect and it's obviously very nearby to Coral Bay and its restaurants. The tradewinds keep the villa cool both day and night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

lonango cay/love shack

Has anyone stayed there recently? My fiance' seems to love the idea of being on an island by ourselves (almost), but I can't find any trip reviews.

we too had lotsa problems choosing the right house to stay at; they all look so da$$ beautiful it's really difficult; we DO feel now that we may have found the "prince" after staying in at least 2 or 3 "frogs"; we're returning again this year for the 4th time and that says a lot ...
