T Mobile Sxmroyalislander Yesterday at 05:23 PM We were on the island the beginning/middle of December and nobody in our party who has T Mobile as a cell phone carrier could receive any incoming phone calls. We all have international on our phones. We have been coming to the island for many years and have never had an issue.

I’m just wondering if anybody else has run into this issue?

sapphire Beach Club DandG Yesterday at 02:03 PM We're checking into Sapphire Beach Club tomorrow.
If anyone has stayed lately I'd like to know if the elevator's are functional.
70 year olds don't do steps well!!
Are the electrical outlets European or American??
First time on the Dutch side in the winter in 25 years.
Thanks for all the help over the years. This has been our go-to site since 2001.
Thank you Carol and Eric!!!

BSV questions turqwater Yesterday at 08:55 AM We stayed at BSV 2 years ago and are thinking about staying there again. However we had 2 issues: only a screen in the bedroom window facing the airport so it was very loud and the skylight leaked badly when it rained.
Is that just how it is? Is there usually glass in that window?

Cottage cheese KGB Yesterday at 06:48 AM Please don’t think I’m insane… Wife wants to know where can we buy a plain cottage cheese on the island. She was trying to find it last year but apparently didn’t see any. Delicious croissants and crapes don’t cut anymore 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Dinner At D's But The Music - OMG Whale Tail Yesterday at 02:54 AM Dinner at D's. My wife had the Pineapple Fried Rice With Shrimp and you guessed it I had, a cheeseburger with fries. But it was really good, 8 oz of Angus Beef.

That's not the reason for this post. The music was one of those nights where you didn't expect what you were about to experience. There is a group of island musicians who are really good but every now and then when you think that you are going to be entertained by Ronnie Santana and the Real Deal, then a guest musician or singer shows up out of the crowd. Tonight that happened!!!

The first set this singer did a couple of songs with Ronnie Santana, Lee Hardesty, Rodrigo Froes, Eric Sardin and he was pretty good. But the second set he was featured and boy did he shine. Even the band was in awe of his performance and you could see them looking at him with awe and it made them perform even better. I tried to capture their emotions with my pictures.

After the show I asked the people at the bands table, who is this guy. His name is Vere Hill. They said, You Tube him singing Tennessee Whiskey with a street musician in Sarasota. The video has 25 million views.

You never know what you might experience on this island when it comes to live music.

Tonight was one of those nights.
