The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos helps travelers from Annapolis plan a first Caribbean trip, with villas at the Westin St John Resort rented by the week and a local team ready to answer questions before you book.
If Annapolis is where you live, a first trip to the Caribbean can feel like a big step. The water you know from the Chesapeake gives way to a warm, clear sea, and the shift in pace is noticeable from the first morning. Many travelers from Maryland have never been to a tropical island, so it helps to know what to expect before you go. St John is a small island in the US Virgin Islands, and it suits people who want quiet beaches and a relaxed rhythm more than nightlife. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort give you room to settle in rather than rushing from one sight to the next. A villa offers a kitchen, space to spread out, and a base that feels like your own for the length of your stay. For a first visit, that kind of setup can make the unfamiliar parts of island life feel easier. You can ease into the place at your own speed, which is often what makes a first Caribbean trip feel worth repeating.

Getting to St. John from Annapolis
- Reaching the island. Most visitors from Annapolis fly into St. Thomas, which has the airport code STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there, a passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay on St. John. Plan for a short transfer at each step, and keep your bags within reach. Once you are on St. John, remember that driving is on the left, which may take a little getting used to.
- Choosing when to leave. Maryland winters are cold, so many travelers from the Annapolis area head south when the weather at home turns gray. Island weather stays warm for much of the year, though rain can arrive at any season. Think about what matters most to you, whether that is calm seas, dry days, or simply escaping the cold. Your local team can talk through timing with you before you commit to dates.
- Planning your villa stay. Villas at the Westin St John Resort are rented by the week, which gives you a natural rhythm for a first trip. Consider how you want to spend your days, whether that means beach time, a slow morning on the deck, or exploring the island at a gentle pace. Pack light layers, sun protection, and comfortable shoes. A week-long villa stay leaves room to enjoy the island rather than rushing through it.
