Location Question Please.

Post by tralei714 »

I am staying at this property in February. I was wondering if from the pictures anyone could tell me where it is. I'd like to know how close/far away everything is. Has anyone heard of it?

Thanks Always

The property is in Coral Bay about a 20 minute ride from the main town of Cruz Bay. I am not familiar with it but it looks cute. Maybe Pia can identify the view and the exact location.

Do you have a car reserved? You will most certainly need one.

From the photos, this appears to be on the flank of Bordeaux that comes down into Coral Bay. You would go up either across from Island Blues, or from the Carolina Road past Love City minimart. You would only be 3 minutes or so from "downtown" Coral Bay, add 20-30 to get to Cruz Bay. Breeze should be good with the east exposure...

Check out the Crystal Palace in STT. The owner is a frequent visitor to this forum and is very pleasant to deal with. Many forumites have stayed there and think highly of it.

Yes, we like the Crystal Palace - http://www.crystalpalaceusvi.com/

We go for the cheaper rooms with the shared bath. The rooms are quite big. Ronnie includes airport transfers and the first drink at the honor bar. It's good deal, especially if you factor in a couple of cab rides. The Charllote Amalie/STJ ferry is walking distance.

Cheers, RickG
