We have a couple of days left in our charter but I certainly agree with the OP. The attitude of the people considering all the damage done is just amazing. There are lots of options to visit even if some of the old favorites like Bitter End and Saba Rock are temporarily out of service. (edit: didn't mean to imply they were permanently gone.)

Just had a great lobster dinner at Abe's in Little Harbour JVD. They lost pretty much everything but are fully functional in a temporary structure while they replace the former structure with a concrete building.
Their attitude is great and they appreciate the business so get yourself here.

Agreed, there is ZERO reasons why you should not go. The four of us had one, if not the best trip ever down there. Remember the arrogant customs people? Gone. The attitudes towards tourists by some? Gone. If you have a favorite palm tree, that may be gone too. But the hills are still green, the water is still clear blue, the sand is a little less some-places, and a little more in others Got a little blowey with Beryl, and we almost lost a cushion. Otherwise the weather was perfect. all but three little sprinkles, 80-85 degrees, 12-20kts smooth consistent winds...not gusty at all.
