Looking to take my first solo trip for my birthday and deciding between San Juan & St. Thomas. I want beach, one water activity, nice hôtels/resorts and amazing food! Walkability would be nice but not needed!

Commenting to follow the thread. I need to take some vacation too and a solo beach vacation doesn’t sound too bad right about now.

A friend just came back from St. Thomas and said most of the stores close early or are not open due to low tourism/Covid. Everything from the food to the Airbnb and car are really expensive. If you want to relax and want multiple options for outings at reasonable price, my advice would be San Juan. You can also do a day trip to St. Thomas.

In my opinion, the VIs are best experienced Island hopping on a boat, which is both more cost effective and honestly more fun with a few friends. You can definitely still enjoy without doing so but you’d be missing out on a lot of what makes it so fun!

If you’re looking to just chill on a beach, eat some good food, have a few drinks, Aruba is pretty great.

St. John’s is amazing but not sure it’s rebounded.
