Re: When and/or was your 1st Time on STJ
GraysonDave: GREAT THREAD and a wonderful video on your daughter, glad it turned out well. It was sad reading Stella's story but she has so much grace in how she recalls the good times. I do hope her upcoming trip to St. John will refresh those good memories even more. For us we found paradise in 19...

Re: jeep rentals
We have used Cool Breeze for many years and have never had a problem. We usually use Dohm's water taxi and it is an easy walk from the National Park dock where they drop you off.

Re: SJU > STT via Cape Air? Opinions?
I'm not a big fan of the San Juan airport. It just always seems like a mad house until you get through security. But we have used Cape Air through SJU a couple of times and have had no issues. However it has been a few years since we used them so hopefully someone can give you more up to date advice...

We started staying at Wings Over Water after we read your trip report from your first visit there. We love the Villa and all of the wonderful times we have had there. Thanks for turning us on to it.
Great trip report!

Re: Private taxi to Ferry
We use Chris' taxi. Call in advance and he or one of his drivers will be waiting at the airport for you, sign in hand. If you book Dohm's Water taxi and use both the private land and water taxi then Dohm's will set up both for you. If you just want the land taxi Chris' number is 340-690-1581.

Shout out to Liam's Aunt
As everyone that reads the forum on a regular basis knows Liam's Aunt comes to STJ often and spends considerable time at Caneel. We had to check out of our Villa today which was its own walk of woe as we really like this particular Villa. We wanted to tack a few more days on the trip and decided we'...

Re: What a night for star gazing on STJ!
Yes Wings is on Bovocaop Point, not being local I wasn't sure how many folks would be familiar with the reference point. The house on the hill above does give off some light, still compared to home, Louisville, the sky here is amazing. I'm envious of anyone that would become used to seeing the const...

Re: What a night for star gazing on STJ!
Kevin: Thanks for the great reply. You obviously know much more about this subject than I do! I did get back up about 4:00 this morning and took a look and the view of the stars remained stunning. I'll make a point to do it again tonight if we get lucky with a cloud free night. The owners here are o...

What a night for star gazing on STJ!
For those of you not familiar with Wings Over Water Villa here is the signature pic from their web page from-water-800.jpg As you can imagine sitting out on the point like this, between Chocolate Hole and Maria's Bluff, there is virtually no light pollution. When the owners built the house they did ...

Delta. Yep, made it fine. Lost 2 1/2 hrs total but we are here now on the porch looking at a rainbow out over Chocolate Hole. Life if Good!

All Dressed Up and No Where to Go!
Wake up call 4:00 am: Check Shuttle to the airport: Check Airplane at Gate: Check Crew to fly the plane: No so much! Flight Cancelled. Now scheduled to arrive 2 1/2 hrs. later than planned. Not the end of the world, but every minute on the rock counts. Here's to hoping the current schedule holds up.
