We used to be loyal to Budget but after 3 trips in a row of waiting for hours for a Jeep to arrive at the airport so we could leave, we're done with them. No problems taking their Jeeps on the ferry, though.

I'm not sure about Thrifty.

I'm guessing that Amalie is booked?

Oooh, this would be a fantastic Christmas gift for avid snorkelers in the family. Thanks for sharing.

Shipping food down before you get there really isn't a viable option unless it's all non-perishables; shipping times can vary wildly and there's no place to store perishable items on the other end. If you want to ship non-perishables, you can talk to your villa rental company and ask them to hold a ...

Have you tried going here and clicking on Coral Bay?:

Or are you trying to search by specific dates and it's giving you more than Coral Bay?

There are many good on-island rental companies, do you want a list?

Interesting info from you Exit Zero, as always!

We've traveled to STJ with car seats many times. Unfortunately, I've heard bad things about taxis and car seats on STT. People have said that taxi drivers can be rude about car seats and refuse to allow you to install them. There's no way I would let my kiddos go without a car seat for the trip from...

Yes, I think we did the hike from the national park headquarters if that is the Lind Point trail, not bad hiking there but the way back is tiring after a long day on the beach. Thanks for your reply! Yes, you can park at the NPS Visitors' Center and hike the Lind Point Trail from there. It is a bit...

I have never done it, but my understanding is that yes, you can still get there through Caneel's property, but you'll have to walk in from the road. Have you considered the Lind Point Trail instead? Then you wouldn't have to pay for a taxi...nor would you have to wait for a taxi to come by on your r...

A taxi to Cruz Bay from Concordia and back would cost a small fortune, and that is if you could even find taxi drivers to make the trip, which is pretty unlikely. How many bedrooms do you need, total? Is the trip for this year? If so, finding a rental vehicle could be a challenge since it's only a c...

Glad to hear it!

I would highly recommend a polarizing filter and figuring out how to use it; it will make a world of difference for water and sky shots. I have a Canon DSLR and the battery lasts me two weeks on STJ, but SLRs are different than point and shoots. Poor quality zoom shots are often the result of a digi...

mg, your group should enjoy viewtiful with her great location and drop death views. 1 word of caution, don't panic when you start up mamey peak rd from centerline rd. remember the website says vf is on a "roughly paved road", an understatement! the initial 100 yds is very bummpy but strai...

We stayed next door at Island Horizons several years ago and we drove up from Coral Bay.

Thanks Teresa. Yeah, I wasn't planning on the 2DR Wranglers. We are trying to fit 8 adults with luggage in 2 (4DR) Wranglers. All the guys are taking carry ons but the women are checking so we're not sure if we need an Explorer or larger SUV in addition to 1 Wrangler. This is what we fit into a 4-d...

4-door Wranglers are good sized and can easily fit 4 adults. I would absolutely not recommend a 2-door Wrangler for four adults.
