Any recommendations for an Airport hotel? Is the Holiday Inn still there? Assuming you mean the Holiday Inn which is a short cab ride from the airport (in Isla Verde), it is now the Verdanza Hotel. I like it, particularly for the choice of three restaurants on premises.

We did the Iberia flight many times, also Condor. Suggest staying at the airport hotel, especially if your Tortola tickets are separate. You may need that cushion for late arrival from Europe. Also check Seaborne, because their early morning flights can be much cheaper.
We are experimenting with overnighting at the airport hotel in December, even though we could have made it the same night. It's so much easier to arrive during daylight with time to provision.
Try dinner at the Metropole in San Juan; a cheap cab ride and good Cuban food.

Kim, after many years flying from Europe, we are now flying from the US. We used Condor twice. Once our flight from Frankfurt was delayed because they had equipment trouble. They put us up in the airport hotel, in an upgraded room, and we left at 5 am the next morning. The planes were older, and I would recommend buying economy plus. The first time we got a great deal because they were just starting the route. We didn't plan a tight connection in San Juan.
Another good option is Air France CDG-SXM, connecting to EIS on Winair. Not sure if you can do it in one day from Vienna, though.
BTW, you met me at your folks' house; i was speaking to your friends in French.

I flew VI Airlink as well. Two years ago now.. It seemed sketchy during booking, but was fine. I recall asking here if anyone else had used it. Typically it is paired with Europe-Antigua fares I used BA from Gatwick
I think I paid $125 for the one way ANU-EIS.
