A fine G'day to you all....
I am in the process of finishing off our planning for our BVI sailing vacation in may,
Thought I had it pretty well taken care of, but , Nanny Cay Hotel is going thru a major construction of its second floor, and putting on a new roof. We meed to change plans for our first and last night land stays of our two week sailing charter.
So, my research has found Village Cay Marina, right there in Road Harbor. Do not know about any damage from Irma or any construction, photos show everything is good, but who know when those were taken. From what we see, nice rooms, reasonable rates, pool, bar, restaurant, slips out front, nice view, etc. Close to town, the ferry dock, and short taxi to Conch Charters. All, positives..
Our question is , does anyone have any comments, good or bad, on staying at Village Cay Hotel, Road Harbor post Irma ?.
This would be,, our first , and last nights, of our two week charter.
Thank you, ahead of time.
Denny and Erica

If you're flying out of St. Thomas, we enjoy spending out last night on St. Thomas. Returning the boat by noon, taking the 1:30 ferry over then chilling at the beach and pool for the evening. Our flight doesn't go out until about 4:00 the following day, so we still around the pool all morning, take a shower and head to the airport about 1:30. Makes for a much less stressful day of flying.

Thank you,
You all are right on, and we pretty much have already made our departure day plans , as you have.
We were also looking at Maria's by the Sea, as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
On the back end, agree with some kick back wiggle room on St. Thomas. Last day of sailing, we want to check the boat into conch, and then stay one last night on Tortola. Then, clear out, and ferry over to St. Thomas and will be spending a couple of days on St. Thomas before we board the plane from STT to. MIA to LAX.
We like it easy, with some wiggle room , and after returning the boat to Conch. WE DO NOT WANT TO BE RUSHED AND ON THE CLOCK . , so one last night on Tortola. Too bloody old to be racing around and depending on others for a successful completion of the objective. We will slow down, and keep life simple and easy.
perfect, One last hotel night in Road Harbor, maybe Maria's, then take the ferry to Saint Thomas the next day , and then have a couple of easy days exploring the USVI a bit. In all of the BVI years, 35 or so, we have not spent any time on St. Thomas, and want to go to Meghans bay, and scout about a bit. Slow and easy, No rushing about, or worrying about schedules.
Thank you all for your suggestions, I am going to check out Maria's at this very moment. You all are fantastic.
We do listen to those who have local knowledge and proceed accordingly. .
Outstanding,
Denny and Erica
