We had a fantastic 10-day vacation. I have not had a better host for a unit - Arnold is a great person - very helpful, kind, and generous. The units’s location on the island is very central, having a great view of a small cove., by which many ships pass, making great viewing from the balcony. The unit is not huge, but provides adequate space. My advice is to work on keeping it clean every day., and make sure that each trip to grocery store is not wasted. I agree that renting a car makes getting around the island much easier, as taxis and water taxis will quickly add up. However, as you will learn just from the drive from the airport, driving on this island is a non-stop adventure Even so, you will want to visit a variety of beaches and sites. I also suggest bringing a small spray bottle of insect repellent. Marigot Bay is a nice little town with several restaurants- not much in the way of nightlife, but there is plenty of that in the north. However, if you are looking at this location, then a relaxing, scenic setting is probably what you are after. Overall, a great trip on which I would return.
