Trip report
We just returned from a wonderful 9 days at St. John. Wish we were still there! We stayed at La Jolla Caribe (posted a review) and loved it. The group consisted of my husband (T) and myself (R), our 3 kids (20(Jr), 23 (A) + 25(L)) and our good friend (C). The house worked out great and was perfect f...

My reluctance to use the ferry is because of the rude behavior of the people loading and unloading the ferry and the middlemen between the taxi and the ticket booth who want $$$ for moving your luggage 4 feet. It was much more enjoyable to all of us (8 adults) to be greeted by courteous people who w...

We use Christopher Taxi and highly recommend it. He is waiting for you at the airport and it makes everything easy. It's $75 minimum with 5 and $15 for each person over the first 5. We also use Dohm's water taxi and that is also well worth it. Christopher works with Dohm's so you can book them at th...

He took two of the guys to the airport and hooked them up with a porter who put our bags in a safe place, brought the guys back to meet us to shop and then met u...

Private taxi
We used a private taxi last year and it was well worth it. Have booked the same taxi for our trip this year (Christopher Taxi) and the private water taxi. After doing the regular ferry last year, will always opt for this option. I want no hassle on vacation and now I'm old enough that I willing to i...
