Acqua Blu
Hi there- We brought our (combined) three daughters and their assorted husbands/stray dogs to this villa last December for the week of Christmas. There were eight of us altogether. The choice for us couldn't have been better. Lots of room for everyone...for family gatherings and for "alone time...

Seascape
My soon to be wife, Sue, and I have stayed at Seascape twice in consecutive years. Both experiences were wonderful. The rental agency, Island Getaways, were great as well. The property is on Bovacoap point with really beautiful ocean views and cozy...although not luxurious...accomodations. That bein...

An island that is today what stj was 15 years ago?
ok...i'm sitting here feeling like a Benedict. St John has been our love for several times a year since 1985. We continue to love it but rue the development and busy-ness that's defined the past ten or so years. Has anyone had experiences on an island recently that felt to them like stj did fifteen ...

ok...we REALLY like the idea of having a beautiful meal prepared at your rental home! This would be our first choice. However, we have to differ and feel less enthralled with the ideas of Zozo's and Asolare...yes they've captured great spots for views on the island but our experiences, since '85 hav...

We've stayed at Seascape twice. It's private, has a great pool and view. Plus a sweet neighbor cat that comes for happy hour everyday, we named her Puss Puss. The only small negative the funiture cushions needed to be updated and may have been. since our last visit last March. Otherwise, it's a grea...

Last day...hmmmm...well, for the last several years we've honored a tradition of leaving our rented home early, going to the Starfish to pick up a nice bottle of champaigne and a pint of St Thomas Creamery's coconut ice cream. We head over to Gibney (it's always early enough to get a parking spot at...

We use the Virgin Islands National Park map that National Geographic produces. The roadways are clear and accurate and the topographic feature is kinda fun. It's more detailed than any other map we've seen and what's perhaps best...the paper is treated so that if it gets wet from say, a brief shower...
