All of you have really made this a great conversation. St. John, for me, was filled with so many great little moments. I loved waking up before my husband and sharing a snack with the donkeys outside of my villa each morning. I felt so calm, so at peace. It was just me and them and it was just so ni...

For those of you who "get it" ...

My husband and I spent our first anniversary in St. John this past February. I was sitting on the beach with him at Maho with my cooler of Carib beside me and watching the turtles poke their heads out of the water when I "got it." Now I'm hooked... So I am returning for the holidays and th...

A petition has also been created here: http://www.on-stjohn.com/2012/04/18/sig ... -you-want/

This will undoubtedly hurt a lot of St. Thomas businesses and residents.

This does not make me happy. This is the response I just received: The BMV is only informing the car rental agencies which we regulate, of a recent change in the law. However, we have agreed to a 60 day grace period before implementation. There are several local car rental agencies on St. John that ...

I need one four door Jeep for myself, my husband, our two boys and all of our beach stuff. I need a second vehicle for my parents. A two-door would suffice for them. They currently have a Jeep Compass reserved on St. Thomas. Looks like St. John Car Rental is our best bet, although the woman on the p...

Car Rental - STJ - In town parking

Ok, so now that the scramble is on to rebook our car rental... Which car rental company has the most in-town parking? Which car rental company is within a reasonable walking distance to the Beach Bar (I have my priorities!) :) I love Amalie. Now taht I need to find another company, who should I pick...

I just spoke with Amalie on STT and they said that they plan to fight the new change. If this change remains in effect, I am afraid that there would not be enough cars on St. John to accommodate visitors.

I was married in Belize in 2011 and I also had no problem getting my gown there. I put it in a garment bag and let the women at the counter know about it prior to boarding. They let me board first and put it in a closet near the entry. No one is allowed access to the closets so your dress will be sa...

My two favorite spots would be the Beach Bar or the overlook near Asolare. My husband and I loved sitting there with our cooler, watching the sun go down. The Beach Bar is just a fun spot for obvious reasons. Now that I think back, I also enjoyed Spyglass. We were greeted by a man, who I later learn...

If I had three weeks to go, well first off, I would be crawling out of my skin!

I would make an appointment for a hair cut, manicure and pedicure. And then I would pull up the Spice Cam a dozen times a day.

Have a great time! I am definitely jealous!

Where are you staying?

I would bring it with you. I tucked mine into my suitcase no problem. You will want it for Waterlemon definitely. And in my opinion, that is one of the best snorkels. Places like Maho, for example, you will not need fins.
