Rosemary--thanks, although it was so long ago, I don't remember it! LOL! It comes with getting old!!

So far I still think the fries at O'Plongier in Marigot are the best I've had on SXM

oh no. we swim back and forth to red hook.
when we want to take a ferry we just do that from Charlotte Amalie to Cruz Bay.

st john beach day is well worth the trouble to get on a ferry. we just have remember to buy our return ferry ticket in the morning in case it gets sold out.

Therrs a newish Sandals? At he Georgetown end of Grand Anse, before the cemetery....ohhhh the infinity pool looks top notch from the main road...it opens all the way, splitting the two sides of the hotel. One day i will book it.

I stayed at BBC beach. The Kalinago??? Resort was nasic at the time, food was great, and the small beach quiet.

Its been a while but grand anse beach is my recommendation.

This Lobster Trap menu is no longer valid. Can the person who posted it please take it down?

Been to both. Punta Cana is easier, cheaper, and fine if you just want to sit on a resort and drink. But you said "snorkeling." Curacao wins that category by a mile. The snorkeling right off the shore at Playa Lagun or Tugboat Beach is world-class. Punta Cana snorkeling is mostly choppy and requires a boat trip. That said, $600 is $600. I'd save the money and do PC, then plan a full week for Curacao later.

Hi all,

I am not sure if its the same company, but a few sails ago, we rented a car near Portsmouth. The brakes nearly caused me to leave my dna on a mountainside. We had to wait at said bend for new vehicle for hours south of Portsmouth.

The next vehicle had better brakes, but the tires were equally bald.

We should have inspected the brakes b4 hitting the road, not on the road. Lesson learned and renter beware.

PS i hope you enjoy your time in Dominica, Zanshin. Are you attempting Boiling Lake? My first stay was in Laudat a decade ago. Dominica is magical.

Prefers FB? Let 'em be.

Hi,

I stayed at West Bay airbnb which was very convenient to 7mb, caymana bay and georgetown.

We stayed at La Cabana on Eagle Beach and loved it (this was in 2019). Yes, there is more going on in the Palm Beach area, but it is not a bad drive from Eagle Beach to Palm Beach for dinner, etc... I think Eagle Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches I have seen. We rented a car and explored the entire island. Went to Palm Beach for dinner several times. One our favorite memories is dinner/dancing at Bugaloe Beach Bar and Grill. I would absolutely go back to Aruba. Was in SXM last year, going to Caymans next year. I do keep up to date with SXM on this forum. We LOVE SXM!!!
