🍹🌴 WHAT IS A PAINKILLER? 🌴🍹

If you’re coming to the Virgin Islands, there’s one cocktail you’re definitely going to hear about… the Painkiller!

But what exactly IS a Painkiller?

This famous Caribbean cocktail was born just across the water from us at the legendary Soggy Dollar Bar on White Bay, Jost Van D**e, back in the 1970s. The bar got its name because there was no dock — boaters had to swim ashore, arriving with very soggy dollars in their pockets! 😂🌊

The traditional Painkiller is a deliciously tropical combination of:

🍍 Pineapple juice
🍊 Orange juice
🥥 Cream of coconut
🥃 Dark rum
✨ And freshly grated nutmeg on top

Creamy, fruity, tropical and just strong enough to remind you that you’re officially on island time. 😎

And at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage, we don’t think your first Painkiller should have to wait until you find a beach bar.

When we pick you up at the airport, we arrive with a Painkiller in hand. 🍹✈️

Because after flying all the way to St. Thomas, getting off the plane and climbing into the Jeep with a cold tropical drink waiting for you just feels like the proper way to say…

🌴 WELCOME TO PARADISE. 🌴

And if you take that first sip and think, “Ohhhh yeah… I’m going to need more of this,” we’ve got you covered. 😂

Guests can purchase a half-gallon jug of our Painkillers for $50 and have it chilled and ready to take along to the beach the very next day.

Grab your cooler, your beach chairs, your Painkiller and head out to find your perfect patch of Caribbean blue.

That’s island vacationing, Two Tickets style. 💙🌊🍹

🌴✈️ LAST DAY ON THE ISLAND: WHAT SHOULD YOU DO BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT?

Your last morning in St. Thomas does not have to feel rushed.

In fact, we think it should be one of those mornings you remember.

Here is our favorite way to spend it at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage:

☕ First — call Northside Grind early and place your breakfast order.

That way, when you get there, it is ready to pick up and you are not wasting your final island morning waiting around.

🥂 The night before, put a bottle of Prosecco in the refrigerator.

Grab a little bottle of orange juice too, because your last morning deserves a mimosa.

And don’t forget the souvenir cups we leave for our Two Tickets guests. 💙

🏖️ Then head over to Hull Bay Beach.

Pick up your breakfast, bring your chilled Prosecco and orange juice, and find yourself a quiet spot by the water.

Sit.

Eat breakfast.

Make that last mimosa.

Listen to the waves.

Look out over the Caribbean one more time.

And just enjoy it.

This is the morning to slow down and reflect on the week you just had — the beaches you found, the meals you loved, the people you met, the adventures you took and all those little moments you didn’t know would become favorite memories.

No big excursion.

No rushing all over the island.

Just one last peaceful morning at Hull Bay. 🌊

Because sometimes the best thing to do on your final day is simply nothing at all.

💡 TWO TICKETS DEPARTURE TIP:

Before you ever leave the cottage for breakfast, make sure departure is already handled.

✔️ Suitcases packed and zipped
✔️ Wet swimsuits and beach clothes separated
✔️ Passports and IDs out and easy to reach
✔️ Phones charged
✔️ Flight status checked
✔️ Souvenirs packed
✔️ Nothing left in drawers, cabinets or outlets
✔️ Travel clothes ready
✔️ Plenty of time allowed to get to the airport

Remember, we recommend giving yourself plenty of time for airport day in St. Thomas, because leaving the island includes more than simply checking a bag and walking to your gate.

Then once everything is ready…

Go have breakfast at Hull Bay.

Pour that last mimosa.

Put your toes in the sand.

Take one more picture.

And instead of saying…

“Goodbye, St. Thomas.”

Say…

🌴 “See you next time.”

🏡 Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage

Because the hardest part of a St. Thomas vacation isn’t getting here…

It’s leaving. 💙✈️

09/05/2026

☀️🌴 It’s a beautiful Saturday here on St. Thomas! 🌴☀️

And while the sun is shining, our amazing maintenance man — Steve 😉 — is hard at work repainting the entire pool deck! 🎨🏝️

Keeping Two Tickets to Paradise looking beautiful and giving our guests that “A-HA… we’re really in paradise!” moment when they arrive is so important to us. ❤️

We’ve had a little break between guests, and we’re taking full advantage of it — painting, refreshing, improving, and making sure every little corner of the property is ready for the next couple who comes to call our little piece of St. Thomas home. 🌺

There’s always something happening behind the scenes at Two Tickets to Paradise, because paradise needs a little TLC too! 🥰

Hope everyone is enjoying a beautiful Saturday wherever you are!

🌅 SUNRISE OR SUNSET — WHICH SIDE OF ST. THOMAS IS BEST? 🌴

One of the questions we love talking about at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage is this:

Are you a sunrise person… or a sunset person?

Because on St. Thomas, the answer may help decide where you want to spend part of your day.

☀️ FOR SUNRISE — LOOK EAST

If you want to watch the island wake up, the East End and southeast-facing areas are your best bet.

Think early morning light coming across the water around places like Sapphire Beach, Red Hook and Secret Harbour. This side of the island catches those beautiful soft morning colors first.

And here’s the bonus: mornings are often quieter, cooler and calmer. It’s one of our favorite times of day to enjoy St. Thomas before the island really gets moving.

🌅 FOR SUNSET — LOOK WEST

If sunset is more your speed, look toward the western and southwest-facing sides of St. Thomas or find yourself a high overlook with an open view toward the west.

The official USVI tourism site even recommends spots around St. Thomas for sunset viewing, and elevated areas can give you gorgeous views as the sky changes from gold to pink, coral and purple. (US Virgin Islands⁠)

⛰️ BUT HERE’S THE ST. THOMAS TWIST…

We’re a mountainous island.

That means it isn’t quite as simple as saying “East End = sunrise” and “West End = sunset.”

A hill, ridge or neighboring island can block the actual sun from view depending on exactly where you are. Sometimes you may not see the sun touch the horizon at all — but you’ll still get an incredible sky.

And because St. Thomas has so many elevations, some of the BEST sunrise and sunset views actually come from being up high.

🌴 WHAT ABOUT THE NORTHSIDE?

Our Northside has its own kind of magic.

From the hills you get those big sweeping Caribbean views, and depending on the time of year and exactly which direction you’re facing, you can catch beautiful morning light, evening colors — and sometimes a sky that seems to light up in every direction.

That’s one of the things we love about sitting outside at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage.

Sometimes the best show isn’t directly in front of the sun…

…it’s the clouds over the water turning pink behind you. 💗

💡 TWO TICKETS TIP:

If you have a particular sunrise or sunset spot in mind, check the direction it faces before making a special trip.

And don’t leave the second the sun disappears!

Some of the prettiest colors can happen after sunset when the clouds begin reflecting all that leftover light.

So which team are you?

🌅 TEAM SUNRISE: coffee, quiet water and a brand-new island day

🍹 TEAM SUNSET: a cocktail, Caribbean breeze and one last beautiful show before dinner

At Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage, we say…

Why choose? You’re on vacation. See both. 🌴💙

🌴 Northside vs. East End vs. Town — What’s the Difference? 🇻🇮

If you’re planning your first trip to St. Thomas, you may hear people talk about staying on the Northside, the East End, or near Town.

But what does that actually mean? 🤔

The truth is, St. Thomas may only be about 32 square miles, but where you stay can completely change the feel of your vacation.

🌿 THE NORTHSIDE — Lush, Quiet & Residential

This is the St. Thomas we call home at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage. 💙

The Northside is greener, quieter, and tucked into the hills overlooking the Atlantic. You’ll find winding roads, beautiful views, tropical vegetation, neighborhood beaches, and much more of a residential island feel.

This is a great area for travelers who want to experience St. Thomas rather than feel like they’re staying in a tourist district.

Think:
🌺 Peace and quiet
🌊 Incredible views
🏝️ Beaches like Magens Bay, Hull Bay and nearby northside favorites
🌴 More local, residential island life
🚙 A rental car is definitely your friend

🌊 THE EAST END — Beaches, Marinas & Vacation Energy

The East End is one of the most popular visitor areas on St. Thomas.

This is where you’ll find Red Hook, the ferry terminal to St. John, lots of restaurants and bars, marinas, resorts, and several beautiful beaches nearby.

Think:
⛵ Boats and marinas
🍹 Restaurants and nightlife
⛴️ Easy access to the St. John ferry
🏖️ Resort and vacation-condo atmosphere
🎶 A little more hustle and bustle

If you want to walk to restaurants, catch ferries, or spend lots of time boating around the Virgin Islands, the East End can be very convenient.

🏘️ TOWN — History, Shopping & Island Culture

When locals say “Town,” they’re generally talking about Charlotte Amalie, our historic capital.

This is where you’ll find colorful historic buildings, shopping, restaurants, cruise ship activity, the waterfront, historic sites, and some of the hustle and bustle of everyday island life.

Think:
🛍️ Shopping
🏛️ History
🚢 Cruise ships
🍽️ Restaurants
🇻🇮 A glimpse into the heart of St. Thomas

Town can be lively during the day — especially when several cruise ships are visiting — and much quieter after the ships leave.

🌴 So which area is best?

There really isn’t one “best” part of St. Thomas.

It depends on how you want your vacation to feel.

Want restaurants, ferries and activity? ➡️ East End

Want history, shopping and the energy of Charlotte Amalie? ➡️ Town

Want quiet mornings, lush hillsides, incredible views and a more residential island experience? ➡️ Come see us on the Northside. 💙🌴

One of the things we love most about St. Thomas is that you don’t have to choose just one.

Stay on the Northside, grab the keys to the Jeep, and go explore them ALL. 🚙🌊

That’s the beauty of an island that’s only 32 square miles — paradise is never very far away.

🌴 ONLY IN ST. THOMAS… What Are Those Little Safari Taxis? 😂🚐

You’ve landed in St. Thomas, you’re riding down the road, and suddenly you see what looks like a pickup truck… with rows of benches in the back… packed with people enjoying the Caribbean breeze.

Welcome to the St. Thomas safari taxi! 🇻🇮🌺

These open-air taxis are just part of everyday island life, and honestly, they’re one of those things that make you realize pretty quickly…

You’re definitely not on the mainland anymore. 😂

Safari taxis are used for sightseeing tours, cruise ship excursions, traditional taxi rides, and even local transportation around certain parts of the island.

A few things to know before you hop aboard:

☀️ There’s usually no air-conditioning — Mother Nature handles that.

🌬️ Your hair may not survive the ride, but the views are worth it.

⛰️ St. Thomas roads are steep, curvy, and full of personality, so consider the ride part transportation… part adventure.

💵 Always confirm where the safari is going and what the fare will be before climbing in.

And yes, when you’re sitting in the back, catching the breeze, looking out over that beautiful blue Caribbean water, you might find yourself thinking…

“Why don’t we have these back home?” 🌊😂

That’s island life.

A little different.
A little adventurous.
And a whole lot of fun. 💙

At Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage, we love sharing these little “Only in St. Thomas” moments so our guests know what to expect before they arrive.

Because around here, even the taxi ride can become part of the vacation. 🌴🚐🌺

🌦️ WHAT DOES A 30% CHANCE OF RAIN MEAN IN ST. THOMAS? 🌴

If you’re planning your St. Thomas vacation and your weather app suddenly shows 30% chance of rain, don’t start canceling the beach day just yet. 😉

A 30% chance of rain means there is a 30% probability that measurable rain will fall at your specific location during that forecast period. It does not mean it will rain for 30% of the day. (National Weather Service⁠)

And here in the islands, weather can be incredibly localized.

It may be raining on one side of St. Thomas while the sun is shining beautifully on another. You might watch a shower pass across the water from your beach chair, get five or ten minutes of rain where you are, and then be right back to blue skies and sunshine. 🌈☀️

That’s one of the reasons we always tell our guests:

Don’t let a little rain cloud on the weather app scare you.

Pack the sunscreen.
Grab your beach bag.
Take the Jeep.
And go enjoy the island. 🌴

Unless we’re watching a significant tropical system, a little rain in the forecast usually doesn’t mean an entire rainy day in paradise.

And truthfully? Sometimes one of the prettiest sights in St. Thomas is watching a tropical shower move across the Caribbean while you’re sitting somewhere completely dry with a cocktail in your hand. 🍹🌧️🌊

So when your app says 30% chance of rain, remember…

You’re in the tropics. Give it a few minutes. Paradise is probably still waiting on the other side of that cloud. ❤️🌴

✈️🌴 WHY IS AIRPORT DAY DIFFERENT IN ST. THOMAS? 🌴✈️

One of the questions we hear from guests at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage is:

“Do we REALLY need to get to the airport three hours early?”

Our answer? Yes. Especially when you’re flying from St. Thomas back to the mainland. 😂

Airport day in the USVI is a little different from what you may be used to at home, so here’s what to expect when it’s time to say goodbye to paradise. 💙

First, remember that Cyril E. King Airport is a relatively small island airport handling a whole lot of travelers. When several mainland flights are leaving around the same time, things can get busy quickly.

And unlike most domestic airports, there are a few extra stops along the way.

🌿 AGRICULTURE INSPECTION
Before heading back to the mainland, your luggage may need to go through an agricultural inspection. The USDA restricts certain fruits, vegetables, plants, soil and other agricultural items from traveling from the USVI to the mainland because they can carry pests or diseases. All agricultural items should be declared and presented for inspection. (APHIS⁠)

🛂 U.S. CUSTOMS & BORDER PROTECTION
Yes, St. Thomas is part of the United States, but travelers departing the USVI for the mainland are processed through federal inspection here before departure. That is one more step that you normally don’t encounter when flying between two mainland cities.

🧳 AIRLINE CHECK-IN & BAGS
You’ll still need to check bags, get through your airline’s ticket counter if necessary, and make sure you haven’t missed its cutoff time. The Virgin Islands Port Authority specifically reminds travelers that airline ticketing and federal services can close earlier than the terminal itself. (VI Port Authority⁠)

👟 THEN COMES TSA
After agriculture, Customs and airline check-in, you still have regular airport security to get through.

And here’s the important part…

Our airport isn’t huge, so when those lines stack up, there isn’t always another counter, another checkpoint or another terminal to absorb the crowd.

That is why we tell our guests:

⏰ PLAN TO ARRIVE ABOUT THREE HOURS BEFORE YOUR DEPARTURE.

Could you sometimes get through much faster? Absolutely.

But vacation is supposed to end with you reminiscing about your favorite beach and planning your next trip to St. Thomas…

not sprinting through the airport yelling, “HOLD THE PLANE!” 😂✈️

A few Two Tickets tips for departure day:

🌴 Don’t try to squeeze in “one last beach” if it makes your schedule tight.
🧳 Have your ID and travel documents easily accessible.
🍍 Be mindful about bringing fresh produce, plants or other agricultural items home.
💧 Give yourself time, especially on busy travel days and weekends.
✈️ Check your airline’s current recommendations and flight status before leaving the cottage.

And don’t worry — when you’re staying with us, Steve and I will help you plan airport day too. We know leaving paradise is painful enough. We’re going to do our best to make everything leading up to that flight as easy as possible. ❤️

So when we say three hours early, trust your island hosts on this one.

Better to have a little extra time at the airport than watch your airplane leave without you. 😉

🌴 CAN I GO TO WATER ISLAND FOR THE DAY? 🌴

Absolutely — and it’s one of our favorite easy little island adventures from Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage! 💙

Water Island is just a quick ferry ride away from St. Thomas, but it feels like you’ve escaped to another little corner of paradise.

⛴️ HOW DO YOU GET THERE?
The Water Island ferry leaves from Crown Bay Marina and takes you over to Phillips Landing on Water Island. The ride is short and easy, and ferries run throughout the day. Current visitor fare is $10 each way per adult, but schedules and fares can change, so Steve and I will always help our guests check the latest information before heading out. (Water Island Ferry⁠)

🚕 OPTION #1: HEAD STRAIGHT TO HONEYMOON BEACH
Once you arrive, you can often catch the ride down toward beautiful Honeymoon Beach. The ride has traditionally been complimentary, but we always recommend bringing a few dollars to tip your driver. Island hospitality deserves a little love! ❤️

🏝️ OPTION #2: RENT A GOLF CART!
Want to make a whole day of it? Rent a golf cart and explore Water Island on your own schedule. Cruise around, take in the views, explore the island, and eventually make your way back down to Honeymoon Beach.

🍴 If you have the golf cart, make a stop at Heidi’s Honeymoon Grill up the hill. It’s a fun little island spot with beautiful views and some seriously good food. Hours can vary, so checking before you go is a smart idea. (Virgin Islands Campground⁠)

🌊 THEN IT’S HONEYMOON BEACH TIME!

One of the best parts about taking the ferry? You don’t need to haul all of our cottage beach chairs and gear with you. Beach amenities and rentals are available right there, so travel light! Dinghy’s also offers beach amenities along with snorkeling, paddleboarding and more. (Dinghy’s Beach Bar⁠)

What WOULD I take?

🧊 Our cooler packed with your favorite drinks
🤿 Your snorkel gear
🧴 Sunscreen
💵 A little cash for tips
😎 And your island attitude!

You’ll also be steps away from Dinghy’s Beach Bar & Grill, right on Honeymoon Beach. Grab some lunch and maybe treat yourself to an island cocktail. Their menu even includes a Painkiller-style Dinghy Fever and the famous peanut-butter-and-chocolate Paddlewacker. 🍹😋 (Dinghy’s Beach Bar⁠)

And keep those eyes on the water! 🐢 Honeymoon Beach can be a wonderful place to snorkel and you just might get lucky enough to spot one of our beautiful sea turtles cruising by.

This is exactly what vacation in the Virgin Islands should feel like — wake up on St. Thomas, hop on a ferry, spend the day exploring another island, have lunch with your toes in the sand, snorkel turquoise water and ferry home before dinner.

And as always, when you stay at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage, Steve and I will make sure you know where to catch the ferry, which schedule to use, golf cart information and everything else you need to enjoy your Water Island adventure.

🌴 St. Thomas is home base…but paradise is all around us. 🌴

08/28/2026

⛴️🌴 ST. JOHN FOR THE DAY — PEOPLE FERRY OR CAR FERRY? 🌴⛴️

One of the absolute BEST parts about staying at Two Tickets to Paradise Cottage is how easy it is to add another island to your vacation! 💙 St. John is just a short ferry ride away from St. Thomas, and there are two great ways to do it.

🚶‍♀️ TAKE THE PASSENGER FERRY

Want something simple, easy and affordable? Head to Red Hook, hop on the passenger ferry, and about 15 minutes later you’re stepping off in Cruz Bay! (Virgin Islands⁠)

And here’s the fun part — you really don’t need a car. Taxis are readily available around Cruz Bay and can take you to beaches, restaurants and other popular spots around St. John.

The passenger ferry is also PERFECT for something I think everyone should do at least once on vacation…

✨ Take a boat to another island just for dinner! ✨

Seriously — when would you ever do that at home? 😂 Get dressed up, catch the ferry over to St. John, walk around Cruz Bay, have cocktails and an amazing dinner, then catch the ferry back to St. Thomas. That’s the kind of vacation memory you’ll talk about for years.

🚙 TAKE THE CAR FERRY

If your plan is to make a full day of it — exploring, beach hopping, stopping at overlooks and moving at your own pace — the car ferry might be your winner.

Drive onto the barge in Red Hook and take your vehicle with you to St. John. Once you arrive, YOU are in charge of the adventure. Want to spend the morning at one beach and the afternoon at another? Stop for lunch? Pull over because you spotted an incredible view? Go for it! 🌊☀️

One very important tip: car-ferry companies and schedules can vary, so know which ferry you’re using, keep that return ticket/receipt handy, and double-check the return schedule before wandering off for the day. (Virgin Islands⁠)

So which one should you choose?

🌴 Passenger ferry: easy, inexpensive, perfect for Cruz Bay, dinner, drinks or a simple day trip.

🚙 Car ferry: perfect for exploring, beach hopping and having the freedom to make your own schedule.

And remember — Steve and I are your hosts AND your island helpers. ❤️ We’ll make sure you have the information you need, help you understand the ferries and give you our favorite ideas for making the most of your St. John day.

After all…you came all this way to the Virgin Islands.

Why visit only ONE island? 😉🌴⛴️
