Roads are no worse than before Irma and Maria in September 2017, which isn't saying much. STJ recovered much quicker because it's such a small community. STT and STX in some places hadn't recovered from the last major hurricanes in the George HW Bush presidency in the early 1990s.
Are those circumstances near the resort? Just curious. Those who are interested in staying at the resort are interested in such things close to where they'll be staying.

BTW - if we get into politics, this thread is going to get moved to Omni PR pretty quickly

Again, looking forward to the first trip report re: the property.

Cheers.
