I think I was in a taxi with you from the STT airport - it broke down I was talking to a couple who were staying at La Dolce Vita - let me know if it was you
You might check out Waterklip. We stayed there last month and found it very comfortable. It's not fancy, but had everything we needed. It's in very good condition, has a/c in the bedrooms, a very private pool, and excellent views of Pillsbury Sound. The pictures don't really do it justice. It's actually an apartment below the main villa, but the owners only rent it when they're not there. It has windows in all the rooms and is very bright, so it doesn't feel closed in or dreary.
Pia,
We arrived on May 2. We took a taxi to Red Hook from the airport, but didn't break down, so I don't think it was us. I would have loved to have met you tho'!
