The original triangle pools are official decommissioned and the one big item left on the list is TILE! Time for a much needed (it’s been 2 years) vacation while the experts finish this year’s #constantupgrade #stjohnusvi #usvirginislands

Turtle 🐢 nest 🪺 hunting on #DenisBay today meant a nice early morning hike, toes in the water. #stjohnusvi #usvirginislands

When a cat fight in the wind wakes you up, sometimes it’s worth stepping out for a look. #stjohnusvi #virginislands #hartbay

Close call. Some branches down and a lot of water, but #HurricaneErin 🌀 is off NNW of #Stjohnusvi #virginislands and we're going to clean things up and welcome the sun 🌥️

Well we (and guests) made it through the night of #HurricaneErin 🌀 passing within 115 miles or so. Power out still and for most of the night, the 6x Powerwalls 🔋 kept us comfortable as more than 5500 gallons of water roared into the cisterns. Lemons 🍋 into Lemonade 🍹 on #stjohnusvi #usvirginislands

all buttoned up well before sunset as the edges of the #HurricaneErin start the mess of wind and rain. #stjohnusvi #virginislands

it's 9am on Saturday morning and #HurricaneErin has increased in strength and is hopefully only a flyby to the north this afternoon. #stjohnusvi #virginislands #hyperlapse #cruzbay

Just waiting on the bands of rain to start and a 5pm #noaa update. #hyperlapse #stjohnusvi

looks like we might get slapped a little with 4-6” of rain and some gusts of up to 45/50mph tomorrow and eek through this close call of #hurricaneerin on #stjohnusvi

Last night at Maho. The calm before the storm 🌀 #hurricaneerin #stjohnusvi

After a year of talking about it, Steve & Stevie finally pulled off the #5592 - 3 consecutive seatings (sushi lunch, raw bar, dinner) at #1864therestaurant 1:15p-7:00p. Heck of a day on #stjohnusvi.

The next stage of road improvements is happening in Chocolate Hole over the next 3 weeks. The old asphalt is removed, and concrete pavement and water-shedding swale is being formed and poured. Smoother path to our and every other villa! #stjohnusvi #stj #virginislands

The Michigan Boys and Girls and Kids (MBaGaK 2025) disbands with a new #Octopop record of 117! #stjohnusvi #virginislands

Great late afternoon happy hour at #LimeInn today with some #Michiganders visiting #stjohnusvi #virginislands

A bunch of St Thomas boats partying out east of the villa in front of Ditlef on this #SundayFunday #stjohnusvi #virginislands

Nice little flight over Chocolate Hole and the villa before next guests arrive tomorrow! #virginislands #chocolatehole

Beautiful day for our annual 4th of July parade and the final day of #stjohncarnival #virginislands

Turtle 🐢 🪺 hunting this morning and a pair of Pelicans stick together in air and on the sea. #virginislands #stjohnusvi #trunkbay

An angry old #iguana 🦎 decides to get a little spicy when I try to move him on from trespassing in the Wally pool. #virginislands #stjohn

Bat Mitzvah group boarded their flight and headed down. One last pool cleaning at sunrise. #virginislands #poolcleaning #stjohnusvi

Why aren’t you on that lonely pool float today? #stjohnusvi #virginislands

While hunting for 🐢 🪺 this morning, Carrie stumbled upon a frisky buck showing off his dancing skills. #stjohnusvi #virginislands #trunkbay #deer

Lime Inn has 2-for-1 drinks at Happy Hour, some most excellent tacos, and sometimes even a parade in the street.

Tiniest little lizard hanging out with us in the pool at sunrise this morning. #virginislands #stjohnusvi #lizards

Sunset: one of the best times of the day to be at Maho, especially May and beyond as the sun moves further north on the horizon. #stjohnusvi #virginislands #mahobay

Carrie stripped, sanded, cleaned, and oiled the “welcome” bench this week. Guests use it to drop off their luggage, wait for a ride to town or the beaches or have a quiet mobile phone conversation just outside the main villa entrance. #stjohnusvi #virginislands

Today was another gorgeous sunny breezy easy. #stjohnusvi #hyperlapse

Bumped into doe and her fawn this morning feeding a neighbor’s dog. Then drove back to the villa and hung out with a nice velvet buck. #stjohnusvi #islanddeer

maho bay at sunset on #stjohnusvi

Turtle nest 🐢 🪺 hunting early morning on both Trunk Bay & Cinnamon and we stumbled upon a holed-up iguana 🦎 #stjohnusvi

Random stop at #oppenheimer for sunset reminds us of why it will always be in the top 3 beaches on #stjohnusvi list.

Lots of wildlife at #CaneelBay this morning on #StJohnUSVI. Donkeys, beach art, and underwater beauty!

Carrie’s birthday dinner out with our good friends at the always awesome La Tapa! #stjohnusvi

Woke up early, at our temporary digs on Maria Bluff, and caught not one, but 2 cruise ships on their way into port on St Thomas. Wonder how many of them will come to #stjohnusvi today ? 🤔 #carnivalmagic #carnivalcelebration

Just a post sunset soak at Hawksnest. When you’ve got this only a short drive away, who needs anything more? #hawksnest #stjohnusvi

up before dawn, Rosie the robot knows there’s guests checking in today! #dolphinpoolcleaner #stjohnusvi
