Re: Private Property

I read this post yesterday on the book of faces. I too am sad that someone would be so bold and rude to come into someone's home, take the time to look around, write a note, and complain about the care the dog received. :oops: :oops: :oops: Whew, that is just wrong on so many levels. Hopefully this ...

Re: Forumites Halloween 2016

And based on all work schedules the Halloween timeframe works for all. Hmmmpf!!! The good news to this is that our villa is open is someone wants to rent and stay...

Yay Parafins! Glad you are getting back. 2011 was a good year, that was my first visit to the Rock.

Enjoy!

Re: ferry to Jost

We have taken the ferry from Red Hook to Jost many times. The first few times we did it was weird to not get off on in St John the times it stopped there en route.

Enjoy your stay on Jost!

Re: If you don't mind cooking

Sounds wonderful for a villa gravity day! Your post is just in time for our spring trip to Jost. Planning on cooking a minimum of 3 meals at the villa. May have to rearrange my menu, hmmmm, and change my provisioning list. Nothing funner than a bbq under the stars with a bottle of wine and good peop...

Re: Day trip to Tortola

Tortola is different from St John and indeed a fun island to explore also. My favorite lounging beach is Smugglers. Grab a picnic lunch and set up for some beach/snorkeling time. After lunch, head to Cane Garden Bay, along the way you can check out many fun spots. Tropical Fusion, Sebastian's, Bomba...

Re: Halloween get-togethers

There is a great group of people who frequent the Cat Fight at Foxy's for Halloween. We were on Jost this fall and had the pleasure of meeting so many of them! :D

Re: Day trip to Tortola

You can get from the STJ ferry dock (Cruz Bay) to Tortola (West End) 3 times daily.

From West End, you can taxi or rent a car and explore the island. Enjoy!

Don't forget your passports!
