USVI-On-Line

Hello Forum,
Long time off line for me. Hope everyone is well. Dec trip was great.I got to shoot some underwater video and saw about 10 turtles and lots of cool things.It was my first solo trip. I'm thing of doing the eco-tent thing.What do you forumites know about Maho and Concordia.Blue Caribe is rented so I'm looking for a cheap plan B. I'm traveling light back pack,guitar and a 6 foot blond, haha.If you know of other places like small cottages or funky hotels please give me the 411.

Dream big Gene !

There is a small cottage down the hill from A House of Open Arms that is rented through the owner but separately from the main villa and it is very affordable. It's in Coral Bay with great views...

cinnamon bay is an option too--cheaper than maho or concordia. concordia you will need a car you willhave your own bathroom and there is a pool there --inseason the e tents go for 155/night.
maho the is a bathhouse--the property is getting a bit worn as they aren;t putting alot of upkeep into it since their lease runs out in 2012 (sad sad sad)

check out cinnamon though--they had cottages (120/night in season?) and they have tents and also bare sites--that would be the cheapest option!

I hear Vie's allows camping at her beach. Not sure what it has or not, just heard about it from this Forum.

I'm staying at a slice of life in coral bay for $1000 in high season. in low season I thinks its 800.

SailView is in the same price range, but no availability until April.

Here's a cottage advertising reduced priced January rentals - http://www.vrbo.com/155914

Another $1,375 per week - http://www.vrbo.com/146033

I'd go with Concordia first, Maho second, Cinnamon Bay third. Vie's campground is one beach further east from her Snack Shack. It's a nice spot, but you pretty much need to bring everything but the toilet and the beach.

Cheers, RickG

oh and i forgot that trindad charlie has some eco cottages and VIERS also rents out places

$600 per week with a/c.

Cheers, RickG

Thanks Rick that looks good !

Laughing very hard! I read this about Maho Bay and figure they may have run into us there!

Some people are happier at a Holiday Inn Express off the Interstate.

Gene, I know your Mr. Fishstock, but I'll let you decide if you want to step up and earn the full "Drunken Hippie" label.

This message comes across all to one side. Can't figure it out. You're right about the picture of the couple on the beach-no caption and not related to Gene's request. I thought it was my computer at first so I logged out and then came back on to find the same thing.
