The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos is a local team that answers questions before you book, and for travelers from Glades County, Florida, planning a first Caribbean trip, we help you understand how villas at the Westin St John Resort on St. John, US Virgin Islands, are rented by the week.

If you live in Glades County, Florida, the Caribbean may feel like a long way from the inland pastures and quiet roads you know. Yet the islands are closer in spirit than they seem. The warm air, the clear water, and the slower pace of island life will feel familiar to anyone who grew up with Florida summers. A first trip is simply a chance to see how a different place works, and to let the surroundings set the rhythm. St. John is a small island in the US Virgin Islands, and it is reached by flying to St. Thomas, then taking a taxi to Red Hook and the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay. Many first-time visitors find the crossing part of the adventure. Once on St. John, driving is on the left, which takes a little attention. Villas at the Westin St John Resort are rented by the week, giving you room to settle in rather than rush from place to place.

Planning Your Caribbean Trip from Glades County

  1. Getting to St. John. Most travelers from Florida fly to St. Thomas, which is 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. Give yourself a relaxed plan for the connection, pack light enough to carry your own bags onto the ferry, and keep your documents handy. Before you travel, confirm your arrangements with your airline and the ferry schedule so the day feels easy.
  2. Choosing when to go. Florida winters are mild, but the Caribbean has its own seasons, and the islands are warm year round. Think about whether you prefer a quieter stretch of the year or a time when more people are traveling. Consider what matters most to you, whether that is calm water, long mornings, or simply the ease of fewer crowds. A first trip goes more smoothly when the timing suits your comfort rather than someone else's calendar.
  3. Planning your stay. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort are offered by the week, which suits a first visit well. A villa gives you a kitchen, space to unwind, and a home base for exploring the island at your own pace. Ask our team about what each villa includes before you book, and think about how you want to spend your days. Planning a few open afternoons will help you enjoy the trip without feeling pressed.
