The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos, a local team on St. John, answers questions from first-time Caribbean travelers in Fairplay, Maryland, before they book a villa at the Westin St John Resort. Ask us anything about planning the trip.
If Fairplay, Maryland, is your starting point and the Caribbean is new territory, the first trip can feel like a lot to organize at once. Winters in Maryland are cold and grey, so many families and friends find that a warm island feels like a real change of pace. Knowing what to expect before you leave home makes the whole journey easier to enjoy. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort give you a home base with room to spread out, which suits a first visit well. You rent by the week, cook when you feel like it, and step out to the resort's grounds without rushing. We are a local team, so if you are unsure whether a villa or another arrangement fits your group, you can ask us directly before you commit.

Your first Caribbean trip from Fairplay
- Reaching St. John. Most visitors from Maryland fly into St. Thomas, which has the airport code STT. From there, a taxi carries you to Red Hook, where you board the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay on St. John. It is a simple sequence once you know it, and we are glad to walk you through each piece so nothing catches you off guard on arrival day.
- Choosing when to go. Maryland's cold months are the usual reason people look south, but the islands have their own seasons worth considering. Think about your schedule, your tolerance for heat, and whether you want a quieter stretch or a livelier one. Tell us your preferred weeks and we will help you think through the tradeoffs before you pick dates.
- Planning the stay. A week in a villa works well for a first trip because it gives you time to settle in. Decide early who is coming, what meals you want to handle yourselves, and how much you hope to do outside the villa. Driving on St. John is on the left, so think about whether you want to rent a car or rely on taxis. We can help you sort out these details.

What should I know about driving on St. John?
Driving on St. John happens on the left side of the road, which is worth practicing in your head before you arrive.
