Yes it shares the same property with the Sonesta but they are separate. The RI is a timeshare offered through RCI and we've only seen reviews there. We're just finishing having a home built in Mexico and had this week to burn and decided to visit SXM. We haven't been there since '05 and we stayed on the French side then. We decided not to stay in Maho and the RIGB was one of the few options leftso we're there. We'll be visiting many areas while there, thanks for the responses.
Happy to see Carol and Eric back, missed no TTOL and BVI forum!
