Re: First Timer Needing Villa/Location Help!!

My husband and I stayed at Bongo Bongo in 2006, and are returning again next week. We cannot wait. It isn't as high up the hill as other villas we've rented (Ambiance being one) but the layout and overall feel of the space is amazing. If you want additional info please feel free to PM. Glad you are ...

Re: Tonight's House Hunters International Features St John

Thanks for the heads up! I am addicted to that show, and an episode devoted to STJ--accompanied by a PainKiller--is a perfect evening, as I see it.

Re: SUP rental/lesson question

Thanks for the info, TexasJumbie. I think we're going to check out the options once we're on island. I love the idea of getting a workout while having a blast on STJ!

SUP rental/lesson question

Anyone have any recommendations among the stand up paddle board rental places on STJ? We are looking for rentals and instruction. It looks like Waterbase in Cruz Bay, Arawak and others are pretty competitive relative to price. Anyone take lessons/rent from Karen Jarvis? I also read that Waterbase ha...

Re: Getting closer!

Hi, Caw954s, I imagine it can't be a bad idea to book restaurant reservations a few week's in advance during high season...especially for some of the more popular, higher end spots. It probably isn't necessary now, I just wanted to do so to ensure we had a spot at the bar for sunset on of the nights...
