St. Martin, St. Thomas, St. John
 
We will be on the Golden Princess this December, and would love to go to the nicest beaches on all of these islands, preferably by a resort where we could get a lunch or a drink, use a bathroom, get out of the sun, etc. Do these resorts mind? Has anyone done this? Any good suggestions? Would love a reply!

You have some nerve! Talk about cheap scates! You asked whether the resorts mind if you use their facilities without paying - what the heck do you think.<BR><BR>Are you Yoda's arch-enemy? Yoda doesn't want to share his jug of wine and you want to take a dump at fancy hotels!

Chill out!I was under the impression that access to beaches was public and open to all. I was talking about having lunch at these resorts, you know spending money!!!not using the facilities. I hope someone else will respond with a more positive answer.<BR>

St Martin, I would go to Orient beach. THere is a shop/rest/bar there that will accomodate you. In St Thomas, I would suggest Sappire beach and resort, easy taxi ride, and no, they don't mind. Enjoy two of my favorite islands.

Jane, you did say "use a bathroom...do these resorts mind?"<BR><BR>Of course you can't expect to use a restroom without buying a meal. <BR><BR>Don't try to act all innocent because it would only mean that you are dumb. <BR><BR>I say this because you would have to be dumb to think that a resort would mind you spending money on a drink or food. Duh.
