Church on Monday is at the Red Piano near the Flamingo. That would be a long walk from Grand Case! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Or you could always try Grand Case Beach Club - snorkeling at Creole Rock is right there and you've got good eating on site as well as all of Grand Case at your fingertips. The bar there is pleasant, too, and they include all non-motorized water sports including kayaks as I recall. Just a thought.........
We have island timeshare that I would never give up but over the years we've decided to expand our horizons for 3-4 nights every few trips and have stayed in P'berg. at the Pasangrahan Hotel, Mary's Boon on Simpson Bay, GCBC, and our last new experience was at Beachside Villas on the other end of Simpson Bay and they've all been fun and different not to mention pleasant. We've also ventured off the grid to stay a few nights each on Anguilla and Saba - each one different with Saba being my favorite because it's so different. But be warned, they are not at all convenient to Church! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />

There are several places in Grand Case that have music. Creole rock has good snorkeling also. I knew what you meant about "Church on Sunday". For that, to walk there, Flamingo is your best bet. But trying something new is always great too!

SXMScubaman said:With every thing you want I would just stay put at the Flamingo. Use the Royal Palm fitness room with the yoga classes. Snorkel out front and rent a car to keep mobile. Diving is just steps away with Dive Adventures at www.stmaartendive.com snorkeling off beach really sucks at flamingo. I'm not brave enough to go out beyond the rocks by myself....

jerber160 said: hmmm any yoga classes near gcbc? fitness room? I see octopus diving is nearby... I think GC Beach Club has a small workout room. Email and ask them. Not only does Calmos have music but Blue Martini does as well. Rainbow did, not sure if they still do, have music. Just check all the websites for info. Love is a great bar on the beach. Then there are the LOLOs for inexpensive food along with moderate restaurants and high end gourmet. When we stayed there on our 2nd week on island we didn't even use the rental car, just walked everywhere. There's even a bar there (can't remember name at the moment) where all the waiters & bartenders go after their shift that stays open until morning.
