The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos, a local team on St. John, answers questions from travelers in Eagle Lake before you book a villa at the Westin St John Resort, so you can ask about the island before you commit to a week away from Florida's warmth.

Eagle Lake sits in the Southeast, where winters are mild compared with much of the country, yet many residents still feel the pull of a true change of scenery when the days turn short and gray. A winter escape to the Caribbean offers something different: warm water, open air, and a slower pace that a short drive to the coast cannot quite match. St. John is a small island in the US Virgin Islands, and it suits travelers who want quiet mornings and unhurried evenings. Villa rentals at the Westin St John Resort give you room to settle in rather than move from hotel to hotel. You can cook a simple breakfast, spread out with a book, and come and go at your own speed. For someone leaving a Florida winter behind, a villa turns a trip into a home base for rest, which is often exactly what a cold-weather break is meant to provide.

Planning your winter escape from Eagle Lake

  1. Reaching the island. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, which uses 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 a little extra room in your day for these connections, and keep your confirmation details handy so the transfer goes smoothly from start to finish.
  2. Choosing when to go. Eagle Lake's winters are cool enough that many people feel the change right away, so think about which weeks matter most to you. Some travelers prefer to leave as soon as the cold settles in, while others wait for a quieter stretch of the season. Ask the St John Condos team which weeks suit your plans before you pick your dates.
  3. Planning the stay. Villas are rented by the week, so decide early how many days you want to stay and whether you plan to drive. On St. John, traffic moves on the left side of the road, which takes some getting used to. Think about groceries, rest days, and quiet time at the villa, so the trip feels like a true escape rather than a rush.

Frequently asked questions

Is it worth leaving Eagle Lake in winter for a few days on St. John?

Do I need a car on St. John if I come from Eagle Lake?

It depends on how you want to spend your days. Some travelers prefer to rent a car to explore the island at their own pace, while others enjoy staying close to their villa. Remember that driving is on the left, and ask the St John Condos team what transport options work best for your stay.
