Summary: Not worth the shipping charges
Review: This book is a definite non buy. We relied on it and had major issues. Some of the information was flat out wrong. As mentioned by one of the reviewers, the book implies it is easy to get around St Thomas on the bus when in reality, taxis are really the only way. We saw 4 buses in 6 days! The cabs run 8 to 12 dollars per run. Assuming you go to a different beach every day and out to dinner, you are looking at $40 a day to get around (we ended up getting a car).Also, the maps are poor. We ended up relying on a free map handed out by one of the hotels to drive around. The beach descriptions are off also. Some were no more than sandy patches. You're better off saving the $12 for your first cab ride!

Summary: Completely Wrong
Review: We just returned from a trip to St. Thomas. We stayed at Saphire Beach Resort based on the ratings in Frommers - "One of the best resorts on the island" and "one of the best restaurants". Saphire Beach resort is one of the worst resorts we have every been to. Service is very poor - sometimes rude. Staff could not provide much insight into activities at the resort itself - let alone the rest of the islands. The food at the restaurant is awful - we actually got sick - we think from eating spoiled food there. Several great resaurants that we found later were not even listed in Frommers (Whale of a Tale in Red Hook, and Blue Moon Cafe at Secret Harbor). Don't buy this book, and don't go anywhere near Saphire Beach Resort.
