We are staying at Haiku in Chocolate Hole. There are four adults running for sure...and I have two kids who are interested but we haven't decided for sure on them. We will have two jeeps for sure, so may stage one in Coral Bay for the ride back. We have only rented in STT in the past so renting on S...

Hello all, We are coming to STJ next February and planning to run in the 8 Tuff Miles race. I am researching the logistics of getting from one side of the island to the other. We will most likely have two jeeps, as we have two different groups going. I thought it may be beneficial to rent a Jeep fro...

We already have our rental reserved for February of 2018. We are currently shopping airfare. 5-people traveling from Chicago to STT. There are two options that look good. One of them has a one hour five minute layover in Miami and one has a 2-hour layover in Miami. Both are American Airlines Flights...

I am in the process of planning a trip for July or August of 2016. I keep finding airfare for around $370 R/T which is a decent price out of O'Hare. When I enter two tickets...the price goes up to $444 per person. Anybody had any experience buying seats one at a time to avoid this? There are two sea...

Bill,

How much longer is the walk along the "goat path". We started out walking back and forth to Cruz Views...and then would only walk to Cruz Views and catch a ride back as the hill was a little steep after a few pain killers!

Villa's are fine...doesn't have to be a condo!

Hello all, My wife and I stayed on STJ for the first time in August of 2013. We are now wanting to return! The last time we stayed at Bliss at Cruz Views. The condo seemed perfect for one couple. The 2nd sleeping arrangement at Bliss was a loft, with no privacy. We are planning another trip for June...

Bliss also had WIFI in the unit...with a fairly fast internet speed!

Silverheels, We stayed in Bliss Cruz Views #1 in August for 11-nights. There are two twin beds that were pushed together creating a king size bed. This was in the loft of the unit...and access was via a spiral stair case. We really enjoyed the unit...everything was new...and the only thing we needed...

Great post, with some very specific information. We will be flying out of ORD in May, and I was also worried about that short layover in Miami. They have a flight with a 2 hour layover, and even though we would love to get to St. John 2 hours earlier, I like the idea of the little longer layover in...

11 Days on St John My wife and I traveled to STJ for 11-days. We were on Island from August 16th-26th. This was our 2nd time being on STJ, but our first time was just a day trip to Trunk Bay while in port in STT in 2001... We typically travel to Mexico once a year, but wanted to return to the beache...

We are considering trying this out to maximize our day on Jost.... We haven't tried it yet, but it appears that it may come close to the expense of the ferry and taxi cabs to get around Jost once there???

Does anyone have any recent experiences using the Dolphin Water Taxi for the Jost Van Dyke day trip? This seems like the best way to maximize time for a full day at White Bay...

Sounds exciting. Looking forward to your blog!!!

Thanks for the replies. I called Discount and made the reservation through them. I was told that they incorrectly quoted me a price for a week rental....but that they would honor the quoted price for the 11-day rental.... Seems too good to be true! I will post our experience with them after we compl...
