Re: November Airfare

I am not possitive of the current policy at Orbitz, but for our last trip we booked there because they refund the difference if fares drop after you book. That paid off for us when we received our refund check. :) maybe that would give a little piece of mind when booking flights that are priced high...

Apartment review needed /. B b September travel

I read the forum daily. I did a search but I cannot find the place I am looking at. Does anyone know of a studio apartment in Coral Bay (the map looks like it in Calabash Boom) that is rented by someone named Shira? The reviews are great. The price is really reasonable. We are unexpectedly adding a ...

Re: Florida driving vacation???

If you want really nice beaches, really do the research on the keys. We were not very impressed, even with the one that had a great Dr. beach review. But, it is the keys so it is still a great escape. We love the island feel of captiva. The beaches there are great for shelling, but are not powdery. ...

Re: Should I cheat on STJ?

This is a post that is totally my opinion. We do not love being in busy and commercial areas for vacation. I think that any island location is a wonderful idea. And, when I see your list of options, I think you might like the kindof bacations that we do. We are Floridians. Clearwater Beach is a day ...

Re: Looking for a 10 unit condo complex

Thanks Island girl...yep, the picture of the pool matches the one on the ad. It would be pretty great if we end up as islanders in the weeks ahead. The timing is perfect and I think that I have some relevant experience - we'll see.

Looking for a 10 unit condo complex

Does anyone know which 10 unit Cruz Bay condo complex this might be looking for an on site manager? I sent my resume to a posting on craigslist and the suspense is killing me! ;) I thought that I would enjoy clicking around and learning about the place while I wait to see if they are interested.

Re: RX mask

We purchased my husbands RX mask online at leisure pro. Having that mask made such a difference for him! I think you will love owning one of your own.

Re: June/July Travel from DC - Flights are CRAZY expensive

If you book thru Orbitz, they will refund any decrease in airfare back to you. We received a refund check for almost $200 last time we booked early. The check doesn't come until after the trip as I recall, but it was still a nice perk.

Re: First visit planned for April 21-28!

We have only been once, so I don't have the big picture of the island yet. We stayed on St Thomas (because we didn't know any better!) and took three day trips to St John and I fell in love with Gibney Beach. Sigh. And Solomon...and Honeymoon... And Hawksnest...and ............ On your last day you ...

Delta had some amazing fares up last night! Hope some of you can catch them. I was looking at May. $261 round trip from Orlando. I have NEVER seen a fare like that! Good luck!
