Cruz Bay - small inns?
 

Hi, <BR> <BR>We are planning a trip to St.John in November. To help the budget, we would like to spend a few nights in town at one of the small motels. <BR> <BR>I found listings for Inn at Tamarind, Raintree Inn and Cruz Inn. <BR> <BR>Anyone familiar with any of these? We are looking for clean and quiet (and of course, cheap). <BR> <BR>Thanks, <BR> <BR>Janet

Been to Raintree and Tamarind. Both are clean but spartan. Neither has phone or TV in ther room. Raintree didnt have AC when I was there (95) but I think has since changed. Also I believe the Raintree is a non smoking hotel if that is of interest to you. Tamarind has continental breakfast in the courtyard (included) everyday. I used to live on STX and would go to STJ for weekend getaways. I dont remember either hotel to be noisy.

I wouldn't recommend any villas at Cruz Bay. Very noisey - dogs, roosters, and lots of mosquitos.

Janet, <BR> We stayed at Raintree Inn in 93 but I thought I heard that it is gone now. It was between the Catholic church and Fish Trap Restaurant - it may be a shopping area now. Jamie

We stayed at Cruz Views. A condo just up the hill from Cruz Bay. One of the few places that allowed stays of less than one week that were in our budget (not caneel/westin). You should check it out.
