The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos is a local team that helps travelers from Excursion Inlet, Alaska, plan a week away with friends at the Westin St John Resort. Ask us anything before you book and we will talk it through with you.
Excursion Inlet sits in the far southeast corner of Alaska, where the coast is shaped by water and forest. For many people who live there, a week away with friends is a rare chance to trade long, dark winters for warm sun and the sound of the sea in a different setting. The US Virgin Islands offer that contrast, and St. John in particular feels small and unhurried, which suits a group that wants to spend its days together without rushing from one thing to the next. Traveling with friends means balancing shared plans with quiet time, and a villa often makes that balance easier than a hotel room. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort give your group space to gather, cook, and rest on your own schedule. St John Condos works with groups from Alaska every season, so we know the questions that tend to come up before a trip like this, and we are glad to talk through them with you.

Getting from Excursion Inlet to St. John
- Reaching the islands. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, which uses the airport code STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there the passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay on St. John. Plan your flights from Alaska with that route in mind, and let the group pick a single arrival day so everyone can share the taxi and the ferry together.
- Choosing the season. Alaska winters are cold and dark, so many friend groups aim for the colder months at home, when a warm island week feels most welcome. Think about what everyone can take time off for, and whether a quieter stretch or a busier one suits your crowd. Our team can share what they have seen from other groups before you settle on dates.
- Planning the stay. Villas are rented by the week, which gives your group a steady rhythm of shared meals and separate afternoons. Agree early on who handles bookings, car rental, and the budget for groceries. Driving on St. John is on the left, so take a moment to adjust before you head out. Let us know your group size and we will help you choose a villa that fits.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need to rent a car if we are a group from Excursion Inlet?
Many visitors find a rental car useful on St. John because the roads are winding and public options are limited. Remember that driving is on the left. Traveling with a group means you can split the cost and the driving duties, so talk about it with your friends before you arrive on the island.
How do we keep a group of friends organized across a week in a villa?
Set a simple plan for shared meals, one or two group outings, and open time for everyone else. Name a point person for the villa and the group chat. Villa Rentals suit groups well because there is room to spread out, so you can keep the togetherness without feeling crowded.
