Cheap hotel close to Hovensa refinery

You are going to have a problem. The island is full of Hovensa guys. Two sugggestions. First, contact Hovensa or whoever you are working for and see if they have any ideas. Second, get a room for a week or two and look for something permanent after you get here.

There really isn't anything close to Hovensa. I suggest you try either Cane Bay Reef Club or Waves of Cane Bay. Both are on the North Shore and cheap.

You will need a car -- no question.

Cottages By the Sea....all the units have kitchens and are on the water on the west end. http://www.caribbeancottages.com/

Possible room in home avail. 2 guys? guy/girl? Dates you'll need somewhere? House is less than 2 miles from Hovensa. PM me.

FYI. Cane Bay Reef Club & The Waves are both full with other refinery people. No room at the inn. You really need to be here to find something. Get on island and ask around. Be sure to ask "locals". Most accomodations are word of mouth. What is your price range? What is your set up...guy/girl, married, pets, what??? Will you have a car?

It's going to be a VERY good summer on STX, $$$-wise.

Thanks everyone for the helpful info. We are looking forward to WARM weather as Texas has had an unusual Spring! Easter brought snow for pity's sake!!!!! Will check out everything suggested. We are looking forward to driving on the left! Watch out!!!!! BTW, we are a couple (guy/girl) and project should last from 3-6 months. Again, Many thanks!
