The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos is a local team that helps travelers from Loring, Alaska, plan a week of exploring the island, with questions answered before you book a villa at the Westin St John Resort.

Loring sits in the far north of the country, where winters are long and dark and many people look forward to a change of scenery. A week on St. John offers a very different kind of quiet, with warm air, clear water and trails that wind through green hills above the sea. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort give you a home base for that week, so your mornings can start slowly and your days can follow whatever you feel like seeing. Exploring the island for a full week means thinking about pace. Some travelers like to spend one day on the water, another on foot, and a few afternoons doing nothing at all. Because St. John is small and driving is on the left, many visitors find it easiest to settle into a rhythm early and let the island set the tempo. The team at St John Condos is glad to talk through how a week like this tends to unfold before you commit to anything.

Getting from Loring to St. John

  1. Reach the Caribbean airport. Most visitors coming from Loring fly to St. Thomas, which is the airport code STT. From there, a taxi carries you to Red Hook, where the passenger ferry crosses to Cruz Bay on St. John. Plan a little slack in your schedule for the transfer, especially if your flights arrive late in the day, so the last leg feels relaxed rather than rushed.
  2. Pick your season for the trip. Leaving a northern winter behind is the main reason many people from Loring make this trip, so timing matters. The islands stay warm through most of the year, but the weather shifts between wetter and drier months. Think about what you want most from the week, whether that is calm seas, quiet trails or a lower crowd level, and choose dates that match those goals.
  3. Plan the stay around the villa. A week works well when you treat your villa as the center of the trip. Consider how many days you want to explore beyond the resort grounds, and which ones you would rather keep open for rest. Ask the St John Condos team about Villa Rentals available for your dates, since they can answer questions about layout and the area before you book anything.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a car to explore the island for a week?

Many visitors rent a car, but the island is compact and you can plan days around a few trips with a driver or on foot. Remember that driving on St. John is on the left, so take a moment to get comfortable before heading out on the winding roads.

Is a week long enough to see most of St. John?

A week gives you room to explore at a relaxed pace without rushing from place to place. Many travelers from Loring find that seven days leaves time for both active outings and slow afternoons at the villa, and the St John Condos team can help you sketch a plan.
