Thanks for the feedback. We're not looking for luxury, just a night before we head back to the great white north. We'll have the life of luxury for a week on St John.

Great to hear about the restaurant at Mafolie ... looks like our decision is easy.

Ruth, you should have this playing from a speaker whenever the ferry is loading to go back to STT.

That's funny! When I played it for our friends on our last night on St John, I don't think there was a dry eye in the villa.

We'll spend the last night of our vacation at the Mafolie on St Thomas. Probably spend the afternoon wandering the streets and shops, but were wondering about suggestions for dinner. Also, any comments on the hotel?

Villa South Palm. We loved the layout, the sunset views are amazing, the pool deck was fantastic. 3 identical bedrooms stacked on top of each other and 1 more on the bottom level. All have inside access.

Thanks for the directions and pics. We'll have to stop by this time.

Just putting ours together ... among others, there'll be lots of Buffett, Marley, Toots & the Maytalls, the soundtrack from "The Harder They Come" and some Jerry Jeff for good measure. Two favorites for this trip will be ... to celebrate our anniversary: The Moon is Still Over Her Shou...

Did you post something about Asolare in your trip reports? If so, I missed it.

Thanks "toes in the sand". We'll be on the lookout for it in a few weeks.

"Puddlejumper", we have a place in the East Valley that's about 20 minutes from Saguaro Lake. Lots of watersports, but I don't know about beaches and the water's not all that blue either.

They usually do close for a short period during time of year you said you will be there. Keep your fingers crossed they will be open! Silly question, but where exactly is the "smoothie shack on Ajax Peak"? My on-island geography isn't the best yet. By the way, from St John to Phoenix ... ...

We've got a reservation at Zozo's to celebrate our 20th. They said they'd put us at a table on the railing ... perfect for sunsets. Great food, great wine and great service when we were there.

Only been once, but our favorites were: Zozo's, Sunday brunch at Miss Lucy's, Skinny Legs and Uncle Joe's. Going back in a couple of weeks and we'll revisit our favorites and hopefully get to Sweet Plantains, Rhumblines, Shipwreck Landing ... Oh, and Ted's Supper Club is coming by the villa one nigh...

Looks like you've found another forum home here StlBeachBum. Sounds like you're having a great time at Caneel. We'll be on the island in 4 weeks ... AND I CAN'T WAIT!!

Thanks Judi, we're really looking forward to our stay at Arc du Soleil. We'll be celebrating our 20th anniversary there. We were on St John 3 years ago and actually stayed just down the hill at South Palm, so are very familiar with the views and sunsets ... spectacular! Villa gravity will definitely...

Unfortunately we haven't stayed at any of them ... BUT, we'll be at Arc du Soleil for a week in March. You say that you've stayed there before; any comments? Would love to hear what you have to say about it.

What night are they on the menu? We might just have to drop by for a taste.
