Just returned last night from 10 glorious days in beautiful sunny St. John. I am not one for trip reports so I will just give you the highlights. We are two couples in our 50's No real travel problems-luckily. Took the Red hook ferry going and the C.A ferry coming home. This was our first time on the C.A ferry and we preferred it to Red Hook, but both are fine.Rented "Miles Away" in Point Rendezvous.I left a detailed review that should post soon. We loved the Villa , it's fabulous. Rented a Dodge Nitro from St. John car rental. It was great having parking at night.
New Beaches visited this time were Jumbie, Honeymoon, Caneel and Leinster.Plus we visited all our favs from last year with the exception of Trunk Bay , just never seemed to get there.
Ate dinner at Banana Deck, ZoZo'S, Asolare, Ocean Grill, Rhumb Lines and Lime Inn, all were good. Asolare is still # 1 in our book but pretty pricey.We never had a bad meal at diner. Cooked in twice with fish from the Fish Trap market (great) Lunch at Caneel, Woodys. Skinny's and Shipwreck Landing. With the exception of Shipwreck all were good. Shipwrecks drinks were awesome but I wouldn't return for the food.
All in all we had a great trip and we are sad to be back in the snowy midwest.

That sounds like a really great time in St. John. I think Miles Away is in a really nice location.
