The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos helps travelers from Ketchikan plan a week away with friends at villas on St. John, a quiet island in the US Virgin Islands. Our local team answers questions before you book, so the trip feels settled from the start.

A week with friends is a particular kind of trip, and Ketchikan travelers often arrive with a shared wish for time together somewhere warm and unhurried. Villas at the Westin St John Resort give a group room to spread out, gather for shared meals, and keep their own schedules without much fuss. Villa Rentals are booked by the week, which suits a group that wants a full stretch of days rather than a quick visit. The islands sit far from the cold, wet rhythm of Southeast Alaska, and that contrast is part of the appeal. Many visitors reach St. John by flying to St. Thomas, then taking a taxi to Red Hook and the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay. Driving on St. John is on the left, so anyone in the group who will take the wheel should plan for that. We can talk through these details with you before you commit to anything.

    Planning a Week From Ketchikan

    1. Getting to the Islands. Most travelers from Ketchikan fly to St. Thomas, which is the usual gateway for St. John. From the airport, a taxi takes you to Red Hook, where the passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay. Plan for everyone in the group to travel together where possible, and share arrival details with the whole party so no one is left waiting on the dock. Our team can walk you through the connections that work best for your group.
    2. Choosing When to Go. Ketchikan winters are cold and rainy, so many friends from Alaska look toward the drier, warmer months on the islands as a welcome change. Think about what your group values most, whether that is calm water, long afternoons, or simply a break from the usual routine. Compare the months with your schedules and talk it over together before settling on dates. We are happy to share what we know about the season so you can choose with confidence.
    3. Planning the Stay. A villa suits a group of friends because everyone can have a bedroom, a shared kitchen, and a common space to gather. Decide early who handles groceries, who drives, and how costs will be split, so the week stays easy. Leave some open days so the trip does not feel scheduled. When you are ready, our team can help you compare villa options and answer any questions before you book.

    Frequently asked questions

    Do we need to rent a car on St. John?

    Many visitors find that a car makes it easier to reach beaches and restaurants across the island, but it is not the only option. Driving is on the left, so anyone who drives should take a moment to get comfortable before heading out. Talk with our team about what suits your group and how you plan to move around during the week.

    Is a villa a good fit for a group of friends?

    Villas are rented by the week and give a group separate bedrooms, a full kitchen, and room to relax together. Shared meals and quiet evenings on the deck can feel more personal than a hotel. Our local team can explain how villa stays work and help you choose one that fits the size of your party.
