Jost Van Dyke的Villa

Susan 美國

This apartment had Great Bay views from the balcony and small views from the bedroom windows and even the shower room. So lovely! The bed was super comfortable and firm. The a/c worked great at night and that's mostly when we used it to sleep. The finishes in the 1 bdrm on the top 3rd floor that was not facing the cell phone tower about 30 yards away is where we stayed, and it had very nice finishes and tasteful linen throughout. I also appreciated that Karen left stuff that were not finished by earlier tenants and left them for us such as few snacks and drinks. When I came back with no butter from the store, she kindly provided me with a block for my breakfasts I cooked daily. Even 2 tablespoons of butter can be a relief to have since they only sold large amounts of butter at the store. There were 2 small markets, one larger and one smaller. We got decent cage-free eggs from the larger store ($4.50) and english muffins from the smaller store when the kind store keeper split the 12-pack in half for our purchase and even threw in an onion. I liked seeing blacks own many of the small businesses here like restaurants. There was a vibe here of contentment of living in in a close knit community. Nice to see! The house gets great easterly wind so it's not very warm and a/c doesn't need to be cranked up. Rain is rare on JVD, so guests are asked to conserve water including not running it for brushing teeth, washing dishes, or showering a long time or after peeing. Appreciated the posting reminder. With climate change, many areas of the world are experiencing weather problems. We enjoyed 2 days of unusual rain out of the 3 days we were there. If you enjoy exercise, the hilly walks of about 15 mins down to White Beach on one side and 12 mins walk to Great Harbour Bay will bring on a good appetite. Walk up to the house, add 10 to 15 mins. Coco Loco's on White Beach served a good pizza. Hagar sp?
