The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos can help travelers from Kipnuk, Alaska, plan a family trip to villas at the Westin St John Resort on St. John, and our local team answers questions before you book.
Kipnuk sits in western Alaska, where the land is open and the weather can be cold for much of the year. For a family, that makes a warm island stay feel like a real change of pace. Children tend to notice the difference right away, from the water to the open sky, and parents often find that a slower week together is exactly what they had in mind. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort give families room to spread out, cook a few meals, and keep their own schedule. Rather than sharing a standard hotel floor, you settle into a space that feels like home for the week. St John Condos is a local team, so you can ask us how the villas suit a family with young children before you commit.

Planning a family trip from Kipnuk to St. John
- Getting to the islands. Most visitors reach St. John by flying into St. Thomas, which is the airport code STT. From there, a taxi takes you to Red Hook, where you board the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay. Plan for a few legs of travel with children in tow, and pack snacks, layers, and anything your kids rely on for the journey.
- Choosing when to leave. Leaving Alaska for the islands is easiest when school breaks and work schedules line up with a calm stretch of the calendar. Many families from colder northern states choose the winter months to escape the chill at home. Think about what your household needs most, then talk with our team about timing that fits your family.
- Planning the stay. Villas are rented by the week, which suits families who want time to unwind rather than rush from one place to the next. Consider the number of bedrooms, the kitchen, and how close the villa sits to the pool and beach. Keep in mind that driving on St. John is on the left, so plan rides with that in mind and bring along the comfort items your children like.

Is a villa better than a regular hotel room for a family from Kipnuk?

Kids have space to play, and adults can sit down together without feeling crowded. Our team can walk you through the layouts so you know what to expect.
How do we get around once we arrive on St. John?
Driving on St. John is on the left, which may take a little getting used to. Many visitors plan their days around a few main outings and arrange transport for the rest.
