You two are so cute together! I love how he is supportive but you come in and make sure he is talking about what he likes.
I’m so glad you enjoyed St. Thomas. I grew up there and miss it tremendously. I currently live in Florida, but I hold St. Thomas in my heart. It will always be my home.
That’s so awesome. We really have a special place for St. Thomas too
Puerto Rico is always lit with breath taking views, beaches, and beautiful inviting people.
Yes Puerto Rico is nice as well. My grandma lives there. We visit a lot! Thanks for watching!

My hometown, St. Thomas! ♥️🇻🇮 Glad you two enjoyed!

Myhometown to v bovoin hood
YES THAT WOULD BE3 GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT THE TRIP TO THE OTHER ISLANDS!
wow thanks for this information now am getting excited and glad i choose St Thomas for my graduation gift to myself i didn't know about FERRY going to the other islands. and the airport! you made my day!
That’s so exciting! Congratulations on graduating! Thanks for watching.
Loved this video! Was looking for an island in the Caribbean for this May and I’m sold on St. Thomas! Probably doing a day trip to Virgin Gorda too!!! Thanks for the tips, you guys are great! 💙😊
Thanks so much for watching! You will have an amazing time! 🖤
Love, love, love St. Thomas!!! Been there five times on different Royal Caribbean ships. Always have to eat at Gladys Cafe and get my fix at Mr. Tablecloth. Hope to visit again soon.
Thanks so much for watching. We deff will have to eat at Gladys Cafe when we go back!
Spent our honeymoon there in 1972 and have been back several times…LOVE Honeymoon beach and all others!! The short trip to St. John is so worth it…Trunk Bay and a ton =
Excellent review and footage. Good job guys. Made me wanna go to St Thomas. 😊
Thank you so much! Hopefully you can visit soon!
the into music was such a vibe!❤🏖✈️
Thank you 🙏🏽
looooove this video!! thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your experience. I just booked a flight to STT for March.
That’s so amazing! Have a great time!
Thanks for an enjoyable, positive video about St. Thomas. My husband was born there and his family on both sides go back a very long way. While living there, we had pot luck Sundays with friends at Magens Bay. You could use Quelbe, the traditional music of the Virgin Islands instead of Reggae, the music of Jamaica. Also, show more scenes while you speak. You may want to visit the little island of Saba, just a 12 minute flight southwest of St. Martin.
Ellen Lockhart we deff are going to to go back and get more footage. The footage was taken before we started TH-cam. Will definitely use Quelbe music next time! Thank you for watching
This is a great video!! Thank you guys!!
Thank you for watching! So happy you enjoyed it
Been to St Thomas...love it!!!! Pristine beaches, but Puerto Rico has over 100 little islands like Vieques, Culebra, Culebrita, Icacos, Coffing Island, Gilligan Island, Mata La Gata Island, Palomino Island, Mona {Hard to reach), Luis Pena (Culebra), Cardona Island, Pinero Islands ect. Love the little islands!
I’ve never been but I want to have a destination wedding there. This video helped so much.
A destination wedding there would be so amazing! Thanks for watching!
I can't wait to see the BLUE water...🍹🍸
You guys are such a cute family! Love it!
Thank you!
Y'all did a good job on representing St Thomas and the other USVIs Also the British Virgin Islands I have family in St Thomas I'm always over there so I know what you mean I'm glad that y'all enjoyed yourself Every time I get a moment I can get away from Washington DC that's my place to be Thanks again 💯✊🏿

So glad you enjoyed the video! You guys are going to have a great time!
Good info, good video, thanks, VI is now on my list
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
Hi Cuz you need to come to Anguilla and you could get to see St Martin too so you will get two in one .
Good video guys!
I would like to hear more about traveling to the islands, cruising, what to watch out for or best ways to save money.
Thank you for watching and thanks so much for the ideas! We deff will make videos over them 💗
My home.. love this list.. going back in February 👍💪
Hope you have a great time!
@@DarrenandSherla thank you.. need to find out from my aunt if any of the travel rules have changed 😊😊
You can also take a ferry ⛴️ from Puerto Rico to Saint Thomas and the rest of the ilands.
Wow didn’t know there was a ferry from Puerto Rico, deff will have to check that out.
Great Video!!! I love the doggie. ;)
Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for the video guys!! Where did you stay? Also, could recommend an all inclusive resorts?
We are staying at Margaritaville right now, noticed that yellow house in the background by coki beach on the thumbnail!
Hope y’all are having a great time! How are things going with COVID?
We are! They pretty much want masks on everywhere, I mean we didn’t have to wear them on our snorkel boat tour but it just depends who you’re around...had to get a Covid test before we could enter the island and everything...but it was worth it for sure
Hi there what food spots would you recommend? I’ve been looking at food spots in St Thomas and it’s looking a little bland- fortunately I found your video!
St Thomas is amazing ❤ the restaurant Sabroso was so good we ate there everyday
Thank you for watching! We will deff eat at Sabroso when we go back!
Great video 👍🏾 very informative!
Thank you 🖤
3/12/21 my husband and I will be going for our 6 month pre-versary
That’s so amazing! You guys will have a great time! There’s something so romantic about this island
Thank you so much for this video! You guys are so cute. Can you make a video of the best beaches at St thomas or like the best places to snorkel?
Will do we are filming an updated video next week!
@@DarrenandSherla Thank you !
Hey Hey Hey. Lol. Guys I'm a new Subscriber. I really enjoyed this video. My daughter wants to go to Puerto Rico I'm hoping to convince her otherwise or this can be my next solo destination. Ok let me go hinge your other videos. Did you guys do restaurants, shopping, cultural stops?
Thank you so much for subscribing. The local restaurants and restaurants by the beach are the best! If you want to shop I would go to red hook. You could always do both Puerto Rico and st. Thomas the flight on average is about $50-75 and only a 30 min flight. Just something to think about lol
Thanks for these tips! I can't wait to surprise my wife by taking her to the baths.
Have fun! Thanks for watching
th-cam.com/video/alSCJ_NZ8lo/w-d-xo.html
I’m booked and ready
Yayyyy you’re gonna have so much fun!
This June on taking my wife there for her 40th birthday it's a surprise trip
Wow that’s so exciting! She is going to love it!! Thanks for watching!
Nice review. I think St thomas maybe underrate amongst African Americans but other ethnic groups truly goes there. Thanks for highlighting this and pointing out the top things that you enjoyed in st thomas.
Bandit4true Love yes We definitely agree with you that is underrated amongst African Americans! Thanks for watching!
@@DarrenandSherla everytime i go there on the plane is always filled with white Americans and i wonder why more Africans have not discovered st Thomas but i guess its because the hear so much about Jamaica.
Thanks ❤️
Hi! Going to St Thomas in a week and wondering if you’d recommend day trips to Virgin Gorda and how easy is it to get there?
I would 100% recommend a day trip. You can take a ferry to Tortola and then to Virgin Gorda. Make sure you stop at the baths while in virgin Gorda
Thanks for pushing the V.I. both U.S. and the B.V.I. a little north of Virgin Gorda is Anegada especially if you love lobster
We will check it out the next time we are back
Yes make a video where you stayed n booking info plz
I am doing Margaritaville solo for my birthday next week. Any tips would help! P.s I don't want to drive, but it looks like I will be forced to do so and like making my own salads. Any grocery tips as well? Fine dining places for my bday in COVID?
Hope you have a great trip.!!
Omg how was your vacation? I’m traveling solo in February
great video
Please make a video on how to travel in a budget & was the St. Thomas trip very expensive?
Definitely will! St Thomas is not expensive but the Taxis can add up if you are moving around a lot
THANKS.

hows the weather there in december? my wife and I are going for a week during christmas
kevin Just the weather feels like summer time in December. It’s amazing. Honestly our favorite time to go is in December because the heat is not over bearing like it is in the summer. I would bring a light jacket just in case you eat at an oceanfront restaurant at night.
Hey could you please make a video comparing St Thomas, St John and St Croix. We’re thing about taking a vacation but are not sure which island to choose.
We are recording a video answering all the questions from this video this week so I will post the link once we upload it
@@DarrenandSherla Thank you so much!
@@DarrenandSherla hello, is there a video on this yet?
What hotels do you guys recommend great video by the way 🖒
ISLAND GURU in St. Thomas we lovedddd staying at Margaritaville. It was such a nice hotel right next to Coki beach. They also have happy hour everyday from like 5-7 and it’s buy a drink get one for free lol
My last trip was to PR .... My next trip is to St. Thomas . How is it driving on the left side of the road 😰?.... Great Info ‼️
How exciting! You’re going to have such a good time! Driving on the left side is actually easier then you think. Once you have driven for a day you get completely use to it. Only difficult thing is pressing the windshield wipers instead of the indicator light lol
-Sherla
Where did you guys stay?
Can you tell me the best place to stay I'm planning a trip don't know which way to go resort,hotel or bnb
So we stayed at Margaritaville and loved it. We also stayed in an Airbnb for part of the time as well. Look on airbnb to book a room at Margaritaville.
Thank so much information and I must see Virgin Gorda
Yes it’s absolutely breathtaking!
This was a great video. I went to St Thomas years ago as part of a cruise port, southern Caribbean schedule, and loved it! I have just subscribed to your channel.
I plan to take my family there in the near future. Can you recommend resorts? Restaurants? Activities for ages 22+?
What are your other favorite Caribbean islands/resorts to stay at?
Lakeisha Faulks thanks so much for subscribing! We would recommend Margaritaville in St. Thomas. It’s right next to Coki beach which is a super nice beach. Da Coil pot is our favorite restaurant there, true authentic Caribbean food! For activities definitely snorkeling at coki dive center and going to the British Virgin Islands by boat and hiking in St. John. We would recommend Anguilla if you want amazing beach water and you can take a ferry to St. Martin
Lakeisha Faulks in Anguilla we Recommend four seasons
@@DarrenandSherla do you have a video/photos of Anquilla?
Thanks a lot for the video. Would you recommend renting a car or just take the public taxi? I want to go there but spend a day or 2 in St Croix and one other Island for a total of 7 days.
Normally I would recommend a taxi but with coronavirus going on I would say rent a car to be on the safe side
Were there any jet ski and/or atv riding attractions?
Yes they do have them at Coki beach and around st. Thomas
@@DarrenandSherla thank you
did you bring your dog with you on vacation? that's awesome.
We didn't on this trip but now she does come on all of our trips.
@@DarrenandSherla epic.
What all inclusive resort did you stay in or hotel?
We stayed at Margaritaville, an Airbnb, and the Ritz Carlton.
Yesss!! My wife and I just cancelled out flight to Puerto because of these beaches you guys showed.
Wow that’s amazing! You guys won’t be disappointed! These are some of the best beaches in the world honestly! Thanks for watching!
I'm wondering if I should also. I leave nxt week for a week in PR..was only planning day trips to St. Thomas n St. John's. Now I'm confused 😕
@@melly23118 you must visit Trunk Bay on St John!!
Any food recommendations? Authentic Caribbean food in st thomas?
Deff go to D’ Coal Pot! Really good oxtail and curry chicken. And Brooks bar by Meagan’s bay is really good as well.
@@DarrenandSherla great, I’ll definitely check them out. I’ll be there next month.
Awesome video
Thank you!
Plus I'm from STT so I'm biased 😉
i wonder how my 81-year-old grandmother would do on those hikes to the beach
so there are so easy hikes that your grandmother could do
Please make a detailed video!? I didn’t see where you did. We’re looking to go for a honeymoon in April. Thanks❤️😎
Yassssss travel on a budget💪🏾
Yes we are filming a more detailed video next week/
Any recommendations for ferry services to St Croix?
I believe it’s only one ferry that offer from St. Thomas to St. Croix. It’s called Native Son Ferry.
@@DarrenandSherla Thank you
Did you do a recommendation video for your stay, flight, food, etc.?!
Did you use a rental or taxi service while there for 11 days?
So we just used taxis’s the whole time and walked.But if you want to go across the island, I recommend maybe renting the car for one or two days while you’re there. I don’t think you need a car for the entire time while you’re there.
@@DarrenandSherla that's what I was thinking as well thank you!! Blessings
What else would you like to have done at St Thomas
Thanks for watching!
Here’s a link to our St. Thomas Travel Guide
th-cam.com/video/alSCJ_NZ8lo/w-d-xo.html
aw , i thought if you travel by sea that a birth certificate would suffice (the way it does when going on cruises to other countries)
Sadly not on the ferry but you can still go to St.John and St. Croix
What website or airline u guys use
we use kayak but we always book directly from the airline. Orbitz is good as well
which hotel did you guys stay in?? Any recommendations
sorry for the late reply deff Maragritaville and the Ritz
th-cam.com/video/alSCJ_NZ8lo/w-d-xo.html
Whr'd u all stay? Are thr any ALL INCLUSIVE RESORTS tht u recommend?
Thanks so much for watching! We didn't stay at any all inclusive resorts, we tend to like to venture out and try some of the local food.
Any clubs or places to party?
Normally there are clubs in places to hang out but because the coronavirus I’m not sure what’s going on there currently
Are there any night clubs to “turn up” lol going for my birthday in July
Yes there are! There’s also a lot of places to eat that turn into like bars at night. When you get there go into town and ask around or even at your hotel they can help you! You’re gonna have so much tun for your birthday in July!
2ND 2 None. VI STRANG!
What resorts did u stay at ?
We stayed at Margaritaville in St. Thomas and the Ritz
@@DarrenandSherla which resort did you like better? Are the resorts alll inclusive? Thanks Guys. New Subscriber. Last vacation I took solo to Paris for my birthday before vivid. Watching travel vacations has become my getaways. Lol
How much the hotel cost?
When we went we got an amazing deal on Airbnb for the hotel was only $350 for a week
You know any cheap motels or rooms for rent
Try Airbnb they have the best deals.

The cost for the hotel?
@@DarrenandSherla yes!
@@passengerprincesspodcast the cost for the hotel was $60 a night on Airbnb. It was definitely a steal, you can find it now for about $120-$260 a night. I know during March prices are higher than normal.
@@DarrenandSherla thank you so much 🥰
The Bahamas 🇧🇸 is the best
Yes we actually just came back
th-cam.com/video/zW1-ZEqfOJU/w-d-xo.html

Girl whos paying for this ad lol. Puerto Rico diverse than St Thomas. PR has all kinds of beaches Brown sand, Black sand, White sand, Pink sand and Mountains the culture is big and food is Top. PR is like a mini country with lot of Diverse. 🥴💯
Lol we love PR as well. My grandmother has been living in Puerto Rico all my life and I’ve been there dozens of times and love it too. Most people are familiar with PR and want to go but not as many people know about the USVI in general! Thanks for watching!
