Caret Bay St Thomas

Hello,

Yes Caret Bay... on the northside of the island. Overall its a nice area.

Did you have any specific questions?

Yes, we love the property but is it in a safe area? It looks so remote.

You love the property but it "looks" remote? This thread does not indicate a specific property to which you are referring. You should be able to tell whether or not a place is too remote for you when you see it in person. Have you seen the property you are "thinking about buying?" Caret Bay has properties with a variety of levels of seclusion. For example, the duplexes near the bottom of Caret Bay don't feel particularly secluded and some units are rented by the week to tourists.

Yes, it's those units we are considering and yes we've seen them. The general area seems very secluded and my girlfriend is worried...I grew up in a major city and am not overly concerned.

HI. I have a couple of friends who have a new home in Caret Bya and own several others there. It's a great area. I love it. Remote is something you'll come to love. THe breeze is good and on the NOrth side you're less likely to have to buy as much water. I did here every year around this time the high school kids go around and cause some trouble. Break ins and such. SO just be smart all should go well. Good luck!!

If the property is West Caret Bay and one is a unit for about $1600 and is also rented weekly then DON"T rent that one. The landlord is "off island" and the property is handled by Century 21. If this isn't the one you looked at then great, but just FYI. This one was a 2bdrm duplex type place and it's fenced completely around the property. It's furnished? If this is the one...roof leaks and the windows don't work, and the landlord won't do anything to fix it.

No, it's a 4 bedroom.
