Enjoy the view from the deck overlooking Magens Bay, another famous icon not to be missed, take photos including from Drakes Seat, yet another St Thomas historical icon, shop the vendors at the other overlooks, get a picture sitting ...

Maybe ti goes without saying. Pack food or snacks for those little kids. You never know what kind of delay can happen. Could end up you will be running for your connection. We sat on the tarmac 3 hours once. Water, energy bars, etc.

Hi there, I have been visiting the VI's for 20+ years, although not being villa people we usually stay on St Thomas. Last year when we did stay on St John we enjoyed dinner several times at Zo Zo's. We liked it the most for many reasons. The food, the ambiance, the view of St Thomas, sunset, staff a...

I love the photos. Great report. We stayed on St. Thomas this year, and did not make it over to St John at all. Your photos make me feel like I need a second trip.

I don't know how you guys get it together to do the live reporting, I lov...

Hi there,
I appreciate all the information here. I wondered what restaurant on St John is at a high point with the best view, and has like the ambiance of, for instance the Banana Tree Grill in St Thomas.
Thank You in advance of our trip to St John

Hi There,
I really enjoyed your trip report and most of all the photos. We leave for the Westin Friday, and seeing the pictures of the beaches and food has gotten me excited and hungry.
Thanks

Thanks in advance

Hi there, What is a good day to go to Jost from St John? We are thinking about Sunday. Arriving the 20th. Never stayed at the Westin, and that's where we'll be. But we have been visiting the VI's for over 25 years, and only until this year have stayed on St Thomas. LB ps: I have not been here on thi...
