The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos is a local team that helps travelers from Gustavus, Alaska, plan a family villa stay at the Westin St John Resort on St. John, with answers to your questions before you book.

Gustavus sits in the far southeast of Alaska, a small community where the wilderness comes right up to the edge of town. Families who live here often think about a vacation that feels like a real change of scenery, and a stay on St. John offers exactly that contrast. Warm water, slow mornings, and a different pace can give children and grownups alike something new to talk about once they get home. A villa at the Westin St John Resort gives a family more room to spread out than a standard hotel room usually does. Villa Rentals are booked by the week, which suits families who want time to settle in rather than rushing from one stop to the next. Our team can talk through layouts, sleeping arrangements, and what might work best for your group before anything is confirmed.

Planning a family trip from Gustavus

  1. Getting to St. John. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, which has 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 for a few connections if you are coming from a small Alaskan community, and keep car seats, medications, and any special items in your carry-on so they stay with you.
  2. Choosing when to travel. Think about your children's school calendar and the season you prefer. Alaska winters are long and dark, so many families from Gustavus enjoy the idea of a warm winter escape, while others prefer the quieter shoulder months. Tell our team your preferred dates and we will help you weigh the options before you commit.
  3. Planning the stay. Once you have a villa in mind, sketch out a loose plan for each day with the family. Remember that driving on St. John is on the left, which may take some getting used to for American visitors. Build in unhurried time for swimming, meals together, and rest, so the trip feels relaxed rather than packed.
