Thumbs up St.John

I don't see much on hear about St.John, why is that? My wife and I spent a week on St.John last January and Loved it. We stayed at Maho bay Camps, an Eco-resort on the north side of the Island. It is quite simply awesome . They have everything you need right there on sight from a provisions store to a restaurant and bar (one of the best sunset views on the island). In addition, they have a dive shop on there beach and can arrange charters for you right from the resort. I tell you there is not much better than a beach chair and a bucket of Carona's and El Presidentie's on the beach after a long day of snorkeling and diving.
In addition to the camps, which tend to be a bit on the primitive side, they also have the Concordia Estates on the south side of the island. It is a big step up on amenities as you get your own bungalow with soler showers and run from solar panels. There is even a pool for those days when you don't want to go anywhere. They have a restaurant, bar and store on sight as well. If you are inclined it is just a short drive in to Coral bay for a Jazz Brunch.
We stayed three days at Maho and three at Concordia both had there own charm and conveniences and we would defiantly recommend either to anyone looking for a low key budget oriented vacation to the USVI.

I am in no way affiliated with Maho or Concordian, just looking to pass on information to anyone interested.

cheers,

Brian D.
