ODESSA
Odessa is a three bedroom / three bath private West Indian Style estate by the sea, where the trade winds blow night and day with the sounds of breaking surf and tree frogs. Surrounded by blooming frangipani, bougainvillea, a bay tree and giant cacti, Odessa is only steps away from it's own natural beach.

Curl up with a book in the estate's cozy living room or watch the sun rise over Rendezvous Bay on one of the airy decks. Prepare your meals in a fully equipped kitchen with dishware made by island potters. Dine at the indoor bar or at the outside table.

About St John, U.S. Virgin Islands - St. John
Of all the islands, St John is probably the most unspoiled, thanks to the contribution of one of the world's best known philanthropists, Laurence Rockefeller. Had it not been for Rockefeller's gift of money and his desire to preserve beautiful St John, the landscape would probably look more commercial, much like the other Virgin Islands.

Child Saftey
On the day of the trip or just before you leave, use a Polaroid camera and take photos of each child in your party. Keep the pictures with you at all times. If you become separated from your child, you will have a photo of what your child looks like right then, that day.
