St. John in May

Hi Everyone! It's been a while since I posted but I continue to enjoy reading all of the posts & trip reports! I have been to St. John several times but mostly in June. We will be traveling this year in May and I'm wondering if there is much difference? In June we find it fairly quiet, calm waters, & perfect weather :D Sad to hear that Tourist Trap will not be open-one of our favorites! We have stayed in various places- Villa Splendore, Maho Bay Camps (sad they're gone), Rick's Hideaway, a villa on Gift Hill, etc-this year we are going to stay at Samuel Cottages. Also wondering if anyone has any pictures of Cottage #2? Seen quite a few of cottage #1's view but not much on #2. Great to be back!!!! Thanks in advance!

We are staying at Samuel Cottages in cottage #1 in May (arriving on the 17th). This will be our 3rd time to stay in #2 and have stayed in #3 many times. We have been to St. John the last of May and also in June and there was not much difference in the weather. Enjoy your trip!

Hi - Any pics of Samuels Cottage #2 or #3? We're looking to go more often and spend less for somewhere to sleep/shower & have breakfast. As long as it's clean, safe and the mattress doesn't kill our back it's cool with us.
