Thanks. We don't have a clue how to get there again. Would you happen to have directions?

Yes, in May, we returned the car to his office, at 6 AM. To get there, just go to Sunset Bar and Grill, turn left right before you go into Alegria, go about a 1/4 mile down, take the first left, following the signs for Beachside Villas. AAA is a short distance down on the left.

For us, since we stay at Beachside Villas, it's on our way to the airport. But unless there is a big crowd at Sunset, it's only a couple of minutes from the airport anyway.

Oh, you're braver than I am, even driving a van on SXM anyway! Give me a little car any day!

The only reason we have rented a van the last few times is there is 5 of us. Stayed in OBBR so we needed the van on the first day from the airport with luggage and stopping at the food store for some supplies. We used to travel around on previous trips but we stayed on the property for almost the whole trip this time so in the future back to the Corollas. Not worth additional cost. Might have been cheaper to get Wilfred Brooks and just rent a car for a few days.

Yes, I might have a tendency to just have him do airport pick up and drop off and then rent a small car for the other days. That might be cheaper than renting a van for the entire time..

At SSB&G making that left as Carol said is White Sands road. Clearly marked. Tight lil road but a short trip from the starting point. Yes, follow the signs to "Beachside villa's". Our home away from home! Hope you had a great time!! Nothing like beach gravity!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

Got home yesterday morning and wanted to thank you for the directions to Alain's. It was perfect and we had no trouble finding it, although I was a little surprised that Alain didn't bother to even respond to my email. Had a great 8 days with mostly great weather. Boy, have the roads changed in the past eight years, (and for the better). Thanks again.

Glad you had a good time. With regard to once you're on island, communicating by phone is the best way to go..
Can we perhaps hope to see a trip report soon?? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Smile.gif" alt="" />
