Re: Post-Irma news

You are very welcome Agent99. I too have been thinking about the incredible staff at Gallows Point, and hoping that Anna, Narej (I may have the spelling of her name wrong), Daldrene, Marcy and all others there are safe and well. If anyone has any update on them, please pass along.

Re: Post-Irma news

Thanks Kevin. The VI Consortium link has not been working for me since last night. I too am not on social media, but was able to view some pics from another link posted. https://www.facebook.com/chrisbpye/posts/10155368705430783 https://www.facebook.com/doug.anderson.568/posts/10214055450169093 Pray...

Re: Beach Bar Theme Song

That worked, by exactly following your directions (when you hear the waves, click the large Beach Bar logo in the middle, then when the sound icon appears just below it, hit that as though you are turning off the sound, and the Beach Bar song starts). Cool!!!

Re: Daphnie at the Airport

No, she is a porter. I've not used her before but she gets rave reviews. Are you thinking of Rachel who is a private driver?

Re: Cruz Bay options

If you are considering Grande Bay, then I would also highly suggest that you take a look at Gallows Point. Beautiful spacious individually owned/upgraded condos just a 2 minute walk up the small hill from GB. Beautiful grounds and awesome views, right on the water, and with surprisingly good snorkel...

Re: Favorite Change

Another "agree" on Zozo's..... although we do miss dining at their previous upstairs bar at Gallows, the new location/atmosphere can't be beat!
Extra Virgin is a really nice dining addition in Cruz Bay..... IMO the best in Cruz Bay (with La Tapa a close 2nd).

Re: Cash only??

I've been to Gertrude's a couple of times and paid cash both times.... awesome Chicken Roti's and make your own Painkillers! Also, although the BVI customs fees are cash only, the Interisland Ferry will accept credit cards (i.e. Visa).

Re: beer prices now

Or for the same price you can get a liter of Cruzan dark or light on sale at Starfish Market this week for $7.99! Enjoy!

Re: LL Bean photo

I just looked - it likely isn't Francis/Mary Point, as the beach isn't sandy (it looks rocky to me). I'm sure there is someone who will know exactly where this was taken!

Re: 10 more days in paradise--the full report

Amazing trip report and pics, as always! You hit so many of our favorite restaurants - and how lucky that you pulled off Zozo's twice! It's always nice how surprisingly good the snorkeling is at Gallows, and all the way along the left of Frank Bay (we always just stay at Gallows). How great to be ab...

Re: Best day to head over to JVD on the ferry?

We've done it twice, but it has been a couple of years. We would just pick the days that we could maximize our time on JVD.... see the ferry schedule, i.e. the return ferry on Sunday is the latest, Friday the earliest (so we would not pick that day), and all the other days in between. Not sure much ...
