Some places we enjoyed (five years ago):

If you like old stuff... Fort Christiansvaern in Christenstead and Fort Frederik in Frederikstead and these two towns, plus Whim Plantation.
A few of my pics of these forts and of Whim Plantation:

Salud Bistro, very near to The Palms. The restaurant at the Palms is very nice, too. On the east end: Mahi's at Chenay Bay, Topside, Duggan's Reef, Blue Water Terrace, The Cultured Pelican, Deep End Bar & Grill, The Galleon, Good Spirits BBQ. At Cane Bay: Off the Wall, eat@Cane Bay (great reggae brunch), Rowdy Joe's. Mid-island: Tutto Bene, No Bones (Gallows Bay). In C'Sted, Bacchus, Savant, Harvey's, Rum Runners. West End: Polly's, Turtle Deli, Blue Moon, Sunset Grill, Rhythms, Coconuts.

Try a Tan Tan tour (off-roading) and a sunset cruise on The Roseway if she's in port while you are there. Try a Buck Island trip for snorkeling; a tour of Cruzan Rum.

Have a great time - we were just there for a quick trip this past November and are heading back again in April for a longer trip.
