I just got back three weeks ago from Marriott's Frenchman Cove and had a very enjoyable trip. The resort is lovely, and our view was great. The beach is small but wasn't crowded and we had no issue getting beach or pool chairs. They had a small waterslide at the pool that a number of adults tried (including myself) when there were no kids around. It was fun. The also had floats in the ocean to swim up to and relax. There were lots of activities for kids to partake in. The food at the resort was very good for lunch and they had a decent marketplace. We brought a cooler with food and found this to be most economical. Didn't rent a car as it was only my husband and I and we had no trouble getting around by cab or ferry. Had dinner at Prime for my husband's birthday and we very much enjoyed the food and view. The road up to it was a little nerve racking but all of our drivers were really good and safe when traveling around town. Took the ferry over and spent the day in St. John. Did a full day trip snorkeling from Marriott that was just okay. The staff was excellent however we really didn't see much Sealife snorkeling. I saw more right at the beach at the Marriott. We spent more time on the boat than I preferred, and they dropped us off for like two hours on I believe honeymoon beach which was nice but would have preferred being there longer. Definitely will come back as it was very relaxing. The only surprise was that we had to go through customs when we left even as American citizens flying back to the states. I wasn't expecting this as it adds to the time getting through security even with enhanced screening priority. The nicest part of flying was flying JetBlue Mint. Service, seats, tv, excellent headsets and overall experience was very enjoyable. I highly recommend it.
