hooper,

Its in the Grenadines.St Vincent.

Check this out (http://www.mustique-island.com/)

I've rented ,amongst others ,Sunrise ,Emerald Hill.
Honeymooned in Gingerbread :)

Les Jolies Eaux was owned by Princess Margret , now owned by her son Viscount Linley
Stargroves is owned by Mick Jagger

Really classy ,nice for a small group of close friends to hang out , only private villas , one small hotel, deserted beeches , and Basil's Bar.

Barbados is nice too.

I used to hang out with JayKay from Jamariquoi there (cough - name dropper);-)))

I'm not sure I want to know why you honeymooned in a 6 BR villa. :rolleyes:

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! And if there's a room for "staff", then that's just icing on the cake. :inlove: But I'd be afraid to go to one of those places - I'd be so miserable when I had to leave. :(

01-09-2004, 09:10 PM
They are fully staffed , peaches. :)
Butler ,cook,maid gardener all included :)

We flew from England to Barbados (on concorde) spent a week in Barbados , then a week in the Villa by ourselves , then had a week in the Villa with some of our "new" relatives :)

Plus it had little beachside bedroom cabins away from the house, about as close to being on a desert island as I could find ;-)))

Mustique is nice, but small and not much going on. We've only been there sailing and at anchor, never stayed ashore. Had many, many drinks, both at Basil's and up at the Firefly. Ran into David Bowie there a couple of years ago when we were drinking at Basil's. Bowie has a home in Mustique.

A place we love to go is the British Virgin Islands. Great island, lots to do, and really inexpensive. You can fly in, or just ferry across from the USVIs.

We have loads of contacts in the BVIs, so if your interested, just hit me up. I can set you up with places to stay, to eat, and to party :stout:

Danny :matey:

Yeah it is very quiet.

But I am very reclusive ;-))))

I think Bowie sold up a year or so ago.

BVI is VERY nice too. :)

If youa re taking the staff just take em to Atlantis and let 'em have fun. Barbados is only better if you are planning to do this during Carnivale (oh yeah!). The staff will bond a bit better and have mutual stuff to talk about for ages at Atlantis or Carnivale which goes a lot farther than having them just say "Oh, it was very relaxing. Nice. I took some pictures of the pretty fish."


Hey Nick, how long does it take for the QE2 to make the crossatlantic trip?

DannyCox

Hey Nick!

Here's a few pics to remember Mustique by....

I forgot about this picture!

http://www.carolcox.com/BVI/svg153.jpg
Our boat at anchor at sunset, in the harbour in Mustique.
Taken from Basil's after an evening of good food and drink.

We had forgotten to leave any lights on (including the anchor light), and had a hard time finding our boat. We left Basil's in the dark, it was pitch black and we were just falling over drunk! Had to walk up and then down the hill to the dinghy docks, find our dinghy, then motor over to the cat. Our "Captain" kept going to the wrong boats!

Ah, memories...

I personally agree with Brad on Atlantis in Bahamas....

It all depends on what you want to do.

Most of the places Nick mentioned for instance are excellent if going as a couple just to relax, lay on the beach, see a few sites, read a bit and mostly fuck like bunny rabbits. If taking the staff on a company outing though, it could be hard to line up enough activities to keep 'em entertained.

Atlantis is the ultimate cheesy tourist destination in the Bahamas now...but consequently might be perfect if taking a group instead of couples.

The Bahamas is a cool place. We stayed there for a week about 3 yrs. ago. Good diving, golf, food, etc. I met Sean Connery at the Atlantis casino one night, nice fellow.

I have been all through the Carib. I gotta say for a laid back 10 days, swimming, scuba, great pricing, all inclusive resort, etc. I sure liked the Dominican Republic.

Mind you it is a very poor country, main cities, etc. We stayed on a ocean resort about 50 miles from the main city / airport. clear water all the time, excellent service, food / drinks 24/7, 1 price. My first time I had every stayed at an all inclusive. We dived about 6 times that week, a real treat.

Forgot the name of the resort, but can ask fletch..

Dominican Republic is a nice place, yes... We stayed in a hotel somewhere on Playa Bavaro for two weeks like five years ago or so...

Awesome pictures Danny. :)

Ahhh the memories :)

pornwolf,

When I first started the crossing the Atlantic by sea it was 4 days I think.. Now its 5 (saves on fuel I believe was the reason) Its cool checking the speed of the ship on your TV screen and seeing 32.3 kts.(pushing towards 40mph on a ship that size)

The QE2 is to be replaced on the transatlantic route by the Queen Mary.
That ship looks to be the absolute business.

Julie,
LOL. I'm too old for you ;-))))

Nah! You're not too old, age don't matter, especially to me! I always said that older gentlemen were a class apart because they know how to please a woman in every way and know how to make her feel great! Experience is such a good quality for a man, and grey hair is sexy! :okthumb:

Giddy Giddy!!! ;-))))

Problem #2 :
All assets are beneficially owned by my wife.
I own nothing.
I borrow a Porsche and a Benz from her.

Are we still on , if I am poor???


;-))))

Problem #3
I have a tiny penis.Infact it is ingrowing.
Problem?

Your wife is not an issue : I have a boyfriend myself, sharing is cool! :D

Money is not an issue : I have all my life to make us some and I have a accounting degree! Money is a stronger point to me than porn will ever be! Together we could make it BIG! :cool2:

Ingrowing penis is not an issue : You should see my collection of dildos and vibrators! :P

I tell you don't worry about a thing! Chances are you would be safe because each time someone proposed to me I ran away... :unsure:

Having just come back from Atlantis tonight and having been in Curaco, St. Mateen, St Thomas, and Aruba in the last 3 months I'd have to go for Aruba, though we visited on a ship and didn't stay in a resort, for resort Atlantis is always good.

Nassau is definitely very nice. Either do the British Colonial in Nassau (private beach; they shot part of "Never Say Never" there too, speaking of Connery) or for something more upscale, Paradise Island's Atlantis Hotel and Casino.

I also have to recommend taking the four-hour party boat; drinking, dancing and eating on a giant replica pirate boat that takes off an hour before sunset!

We tend to stay away from the resorts, except for the occasional foray to Hedonism, or similar "Lifestyles" place.

We prefer the "Real Caribbean", stuff away from the mainstream, and a bit harder to get to.

A great little place is the island of Mayreau in the Grenadines. 300 people, and no power except for personal generators. There is one small and very exclusive resort on the island, and a few small guest-houses. We only go there sailing, but we stay at anchor for a few days as it is one of the best and most beautiful anchorages I have ever seen.

They have 5 vehicles on the island, and one road. In the evening when get "Robert Righteous" on the radio, and he sends his brother-in-law down to pick us up in his pick-up truck (really classy). We then head up to Righteous' bar, "Robert Righteous and de Youth" for 50 cent drinks, and all the partying you can handle! It's one of those places where the locals will buy you drinks.

The place we like to go now when we aren't sailing is Cane Garden Bay in Tortola, BVIs. We stay in a small beach-front hotel for $40.00 a night. You walk out right onto the beach. Lots of great, and cheap, restaurants around, and great night life. We've made friends on Tortola, so half our time is spent having dinner at different people's homes. Love that place.

I really doubt I would do another large hotel or resort ever again (other than "swinger" stuff). There is just so much to see and do in the smaller, less traveled islands. And it ends up a lot cheaper too! When you get away from the tourist stuff, prices drop dramatically. Full dinner for less than $5.00 USD, drinks averaging 50 cents, it's great!

I've got a hookup for a resort in T&C, met someone who owns some resort properties on a flight recently, let me know if you need the info.
