The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos helps travelers from Lake Placid, Florida, plan a week on St. John with friends, from the flight into St. Thomas to the villa at the Westin St John Resort. Ask the local team anything before you book.
A week away with friends takes more planning than a solo trip, and it is worth doing well. Lake Placid sits in the heart of the Florida peninsula, a long way from the Caribbean in feel as well as in distance. Gathering a group means agreeing on dates, budgets for the villa, and who handles which part of the trip. Start early so everyone has time to settle work and family plans. Villa Rentals suit groups because the space is shared and the days can move at everyone's pace. Instead of splitting into pairs of hotel rooms, your group can cook a shared breakfast, spread out on the terrace, and meet back for dinner without anyone leaving the property. The Westin St John Resort gives you a base on the island, and the villa gives you room to be together. Plan a few open afternoons so the week does not feel scheduled.

Getting your Lake Placid group to St. John
- Reaching St. Thomas. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, using 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. Ask your group to choose a shared arrival window so everyone can coordinate taxis and luggage together at the ferry.
- Choosing when to leave. Florida's winter and spring bring settled weather for many travelers, while summer and early fall can be hotter and wetter. Think about when your friends can all get away from work and family. Once the dates are fixed, share them early so the villa booking for the whole group can be locked in.
- Planning the stay. Villas are rented by the week, which suits a group that wants a full seven days together. Divide the planning among your friends: one person tracks the ferry and taxi plans, another handles meals, and another books excursions. Driving on St. John is on the left, so anyone taking the wheel should plan on that.
Frequently asked questions
Can a group of friends from Lake Placid share one villa?
Yes, that is one of the main reasons groups choose a villa over separate rooms. A shared space lets everyone gather for meals and quiet time together. Tell the St John Condos team how many people will be staying so they can recommend a villa that fits your group comfortably.
Should we pick a single person to handle the booking?
Many groups do, and it keeps communication simple. Choose one friend to talk with the St John Condos team, collect payment from everyone, and pass along arrival plans. Ask your questions before you book so that person has clear answers to share with the rest of the group.
Can I contact St John Condos by email?
Yes. Write to info@stjohncondos.com and St John Condos will reply.

Of course. Ask St John Condos anything about Villa Rentals before you make a choice.
