I placed an order with them for next week and found out that they won't split cases of soda/juice/mixers. My last trip, splitting cases was no problem The wife wanted only 6 cans of Sprite and 6 Coke not a case of each. Who wants a case of Pina Colada mix or a case of V8? Because of this, all mixers, juices, and sodas were added to my Bobby's provision order. I still ordered liquor, wine, and cases of water from CC.

Found when comparing prices that CC was the most expensive out of all the places. Seems it just has a following and nobody actually shops.

I just place an online order with Caribbean Cellars this past week. Prompt response. Reasonable prices and great selection.

Will they deliver to your boat? Yes, they deliver to the boat. I think you have to have a minimum of $150 for free delivery.

For anyone traveling next week, please keep in mind that Monday is election day. That means no liquor sales and many places (including Caribbean Cellars) will be closed.

We just returned from BVI a couple of weeks ago. Prior to the trip, we researched prices and availability of water, beer, wine and liquor from the Moorings, Caribbean Cellars, RiteWay and Ticos. The Moorings actually had the lowest prices for most items. Caribbean Cellars has better prices on a couple of items and offered some selections not found elsewhere. For our rather large order, Ticos was not competitive and RiteWay was considerably more expensive than all the other options.
