My wife and I stayed at Drakes several years ago. Fantastic views! Very nice villa with all the comforts of home- much more like staying in a home than a villa. Talked w/ DSJ last week and a third bedroom was added to Drakes- sounds like on the main level- the original two bedrooms are both on the l...

VI Daily News had an article about it. It said all work is to be done at night (10:00 pm - 5:30 am) so no flights are supposed to be affected. The article didn't mention anything about a shortened runway.

Recipes aside, here's my cooking technique: Bring burger patties close, or up to room temp before grilling. Grill until juice just starts to ooze out of the burger, flip, wait for juice to just start to ooze again- your done. (I prefer burgers medium & slightly pink- never had a problem.) Remov...

Great!! That is the one I thought was OPH!! How do you access that area from the Northshore beaches and Cruz Bay area? Also, how do you get into Coral Bay from OPH? We stayed at Orchid Knoll last time and Gifft Hill area before that. Thanks! The only way is down the hill into Coral Bay and then up ...

We stayed in the villa directly below OPH (Drake's Lookout) a number of years ago. The views are fantastic.
