I spent a couple of weeks sailing in and out of there last fall. The whole crew really enjoyed the harbor amenities: nice restaurants,
provisioning (French-YUM), all the yacht services you could want including "high tech".
Nice full size
airport with good international connections including an AA non-stop to
Miami.
Plenty of short sail destinations: Îles des Saintes, Marie-Galante, Deshaises, and St Anne, with
Dominica,
Antigua, Montserrat full day
sails. Very easy clearance in and out via computer.
I wouldn't hesitate to base there.
