You've inspired me to investigate staying on Jost in late January 2009. I just emailed Ivan's guest house and got a response within a half hour! They are booked sadly enough but said that they have a property overlooking the harbour in town. Does anyone know anything about that property?
I forgot Ivan has a property in Great harbour.
How many people are you looking for Nancy?
The first floor is a studio guest house and the second floor sleeps 5 in the villa.
Does not surprise me that it is booked. Everything Ivan and his family touch turns to gold......
The property in Great Harbour would only be a short taxi drive or walk (up and down hill) to White bay.
Ask Charlene when you call over at White Bay or email and ask her about the property.
I think Charlene is running the show while Ivan and everyone is off island, either that or Darlene

FAB TR! Loved it. I'm guessing the dark brunette in the photo with Pia was the mood killer? Just something about the body language in that photo that speaks volumes (If I'm wrong, please ignore this comment!)
I think we've ALL been there.
Now you've got me thinking more about spending time on Jost!!!
We'll be on STJ in December (7-14) as well. With my in-laws. If things don't go well, I may follow your "Drink til you don't care" strategy to cope!!

Yes, she appears to be running the show. I sent her a note back asking her if she has photos of the property. We have only 2 of us and maybe 4 if our friends extend their trip also.

What a wonderful trip report! Your pics were great and you have such a gifted ability to make us feel what you are seeing and doing...I just got home a week ago and you make me wish I'd never left. And kudos on the extra days!!! What a perfect way "not" to end a trip

Great report and beautiful pics! I can hardly wait to get back!!!!!!
Hubby and I were looking at staying on Jost for a few nights, now I am even more tempted than before! I love just relaxing! It is such a laid back place!!!!!
