Re: Kachi Ra in Bethany
Silverheels said it all I am her sister and we've stayed there often and we are coming back in Aug. Being able to walk out to the pool is a great feature. We didn't use the air conditioner at all last Aug.

Re: Sunshine Jeep rental
My sister and I have used Sunshine since they opened and we have been very pleased with their service. We have been able to park there for free if we can't find a parking space in Cruz Bay. The walk down to the center or ferry is easy but the walk up can be challenging but we do it anyway. They alwa...

Re: Tourist Trap
What would we do if we couldn't get our lobster roll fix? No matter what the cost of those lobster rolls are we have never missed our drive to the Tourist Trap.

Re: 8:00 ferry for a 12:30 flight?
We had a 2:30 flight and a checked bag last month, and we took the 10AM ferry. We had plenty of time, of course we also always use Daphne - porter extraordinaire - so that really speeds us through. AA would let us check in online, but would not allow us to use our mobile boarding pass, insisted on ...

Re: layover at JFK
I fly out of Richmond too. Made reservations on AA in January and last week they changed my flight. They had me leaving St. Thomas at 8:00 a.m. I called them and complained that they would cost me more money because I would have to stay overnight in STT. I am also traveling with my sister from CT an...

Re: Phone question
I have Verizon too and last year I was close to the BVI and got a roaming charge even though I didn't make a call. Just turned on the phone. This year I am switching to AT&T after having Verizon for all the years I have had cell phone service. AT&T is the best carrier on St. John.

Re: Arrival rituals
Our first ritual has never changed. Once off the plane we head to the smoking area while our luggage is loaded on the carousel. Once at Red Hook we get a drink before getting on the ferry. Once on STJ we take a picture to announce that we have arrived in paradise and post it on Facebook. Get in our ...

Paris Car Rental
Silverheels and I rented our first Jeep during our stay Aug 6-20. Her jeep on Island was finally unusable. Paris rental had some good rates. When we got the Jeep it rained and I the passenger got soaked from a leak around the window. They replaced the Jeep the next day with one that had just been re...
