1. Is a rental car necessary? A rental car or minivan
is highly recommended. All major rental car services - Hertz,
Avis, Budget, etc. are provided at the St. Thomas airport.
You must make these reservations in advance. Reliance upon
cabs is not recommended, as they are expensive and not always
reliable. Note: Driving is on the left.
2. Does Villa Mafolie provide maid service? One
day of mid-week maid service is provided. Additional maid
service may be requested in advance and paid for at an additional
cost.
3. Are babysitters or cooks available? In most cases,
babysitters and cooks can be arranged with sufficient advance
notice.
4. Where are the nearest grocery stores? Two full-size
supermarkets (Pueblo) are available. One, after exiting
the airport and the second, to the east of town, about a
ten-minute drive from the villa.
5. How do we find our way to the villa from the airport?
A simple, easy-to-read map will be provided to you. The
drive is but a short 10 to 15 minutes from the airport through
town and up the hill.
6. Who will meet me at the villa? The villa caretaker
or her assistant will meet you at the villa. It is important
that A) a call be made to the caretaker should any of your
flights be delayed and B) that the caretaker be called immediately
upon your arrival at the St. Thomas airport to alert her
that you will be arriving within the next half hour or so.
7. Can you call directly to the U.S. from the villa?
The phone system is clear and directly linked to the U.S.
mainland. Local calls are included in your rental. All long-distance
calls must be charged to your calling card or credit card.
