Hello,

First timer here - planning a trip in mid-may. My wife and I - mid 40s; no children. We are leaning towards staying in Simpson Bay area. Here is what we're looking for:

- place to stay - pool preferred. We've been checking out places on airbnb.com and such. A lot of really nice places already booked.
- easy access to beach
- walking distance to bars, restaurants, grocery / supermarket
- nightlife (bars, casino, etc.)

We will be renting a car. We are leaning towards Simpson Bay, possibly Maho (if we can't find anything available in Simpson Bay). Is Simpson Bay the best place to stay for us or would a different area be more suitable?

Any tips we should be aware of for first timer? We enjoy sight seeing; planning on checking out different areas of the island and, most likely, a day trip to Anguilla.


Thanks in advance for responses.
