opinions needed on St. John
I am in charge of planning a large family holiday in the Caribbean (11 adults, no kids; we will be renting a large house). I have narrowed it down to Anguilla and St. John. I've been to Anguilla, but not St. John. Would be interested in any information on dining, activities, general island ambience, beaches, friendliness of locals, safety and crime. Almost everyone in the group has never been to the Caribbean, so I'm trying to make this a memorable experience.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I assume VI. There is a small town on east&west end. The large Weston resort(former Rock resort) on west end does not get good reviews on Starwood BB. other than that, most is national park. Good beaches, sailing and snorkling/diving all the way around, no people, bars, upscale restaurants,or places to buy much food. Bring food from St. Thomas.
Was last there 4 years ago on a sail charter. place is very much like BVI. Not at all like St. Thomas
