Sandra, please do not be sorry for posting your situation. It was definately the right thing to do.
I have never been to AC. We will be there in December for Christmas week. Saw something about the island on TV and decided to go. Anything else I have learned, has been from this message board and a couple of other sites.
After having read about your situation, I know we made the right choice for a vacation destination.
A tourist has a problem, and the local businesses band together to help out?? Where does that happen?? No place I have heard of. The people on AC care about the folks who come to visit.
And to tell you the truth, I am not surprised. After having read this forum for quite some time, I have gathered what a close knit community this is, and that the folks on AC do care about thier friends and guests.
You folks have had a very unfortunate experience, and I am so sorry for that. At the same time, you folks helped bring out some information that we all needed to be aware of. And for that I thank you.
We made our reservations for a golf cart today. Not afraid to do it. Not afraid to travel to AC. In fact, looking very forward to it. More so, in fact, knowing the integrity of other businesses and people on the island.
I wish you well in the outcome of this situation. Would also like to congratulate the SPBA for what they have done. What a wonderful group of people.
Looking forward to our trip. Hope it will be the first of many. Maybe we will luck out one day, and meet you in person.
Take Care,
Mitzi Jasper, GA

I KNOW it isn't just me. When we are there, we are not tourists, we are guests of the people who live there. We see them going on about their lives, the kids going to school, and we see the friendliness they project. It is like a second home where we are very comfortable. The people make the place sooo much better than it already is. That's why it is "different" .
Been there, done that, the washing machine ate the T-shirt

newbies fear not: we never had a prob with golf cart rentals with cholo's or moncho's. or any business on AC for that matter. even had a cart stolen, and an hour later, they just delivered another one. no problem, mon. never shopped at island for more than odds n ends, thank goodness. charging $40US for dr pepper, or 2 packs of smokes for the price of 2 cartons? that's rich. (dang - woulda liked to have caught missyblah blah's rant  ) i hear ya, razor - 7 trips to BZ, 5 to AC, and jonesing to get back...
