Complete stranger here... was this taken after Otto? How's the resort and the rest of the island fairing? We've got a vacation coming up in 3 weeks, and were tempted to cancel after hearing the most recent news... still unsure.
I've been going annually for a few years, I never go for the pool or the beach at the Westin. Don't take that wrong, the Westin is very nice and for a man made beach it's beautiful and I do use the pool :). But all the other beaches are much nicer for snorkeling. And the hiking is great too, if you are into that. November begins busy season, so I imagine in 3 weeks things will be better. Feel free to ping me if you want any suggestions from a regular visitor. Thanks for checking out my page.

ReplyDeleteThis was actually taken in July, the following two sites have some good info and News of St. John updates regularly.
