We were at Crown Bay just a couple of weeks ago while on the Volendam -- the Crown Princess was there. Lots and lots of safari buses which are St Thomas' version of cabs. The price was $4 per person each way.
There is nothing going on at Crown Bay. The buildings are up -- but nothing inside -- they have the area roped off but we were able to look inside the buildings -- nothing in them -- don't even have partitions inside the buildings. Watched 2 workers paint a column -- they weren't rushing the job.
Many merchants in town and Havensight say they don't want to go out there as Crown Bay will only be used for 6 months of the year. During the summer months there are few ships in St Thomas and most will go to Havensight. They feel that they won't make any money during the summer months at Crown Bay and as a result no one has signed any contracts to open a store there yet.
