The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos is a local team that answers questions before you book, and they help travelers from Paradise Heights, Florida plan a first Caribbean trip to villas at the Westin St John Resort.
Planning a first trip to the Caribbean can feel like a lot to take in at once, especially when the islands are so different from the mainland you are used to. For many travelers from Florida, the warm water and easy pace are a welcome change, but the logistics are new. Knowing how the trip fits together before you commit makes the whole experience feel more relaxed. The Westin St John Resort sits on St. John in the US Virgin Islands, and the villas there are rented by the week, which suits a traveler who wants room to unwind rather than move every few days. Villa Rentals give you a kitchen, separate living areas, and a slower rhythm than a hotel stay. This page walks through the practical steps so your first visit feels settled from the start.

Your first Caribbean trip from Paradise Heights
- Reaching St. John. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, which uses the airport code STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there you board the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay on St. John. Plan a little extra room in your day for this stretch, since it involves more than one transfer. Keep your bags manageable, and remember that driving on St. John is on the left side of the road.
- Choosing when to go. Florida travelers are used to warm weather, but Caribbean seasons follow their own pattern, with some months busier than others. Think about what you want from the trip, whether that is quiet mornings, lively evenings, or simply sunshine after a long winter at home. Asking the St John Condos team which weeks suit your plans can help you pick a time that matches your expectations.
- Planning your villa stay. Villa Rentals at the resort are booked by the week, so decide how many days you truly want before you look at availability. Consider how many people are traveling, what kind of meals you want to cook, and whether you plan to rent a car. Writing these choices down first makes it easier to compare options and avoids surprises once you arrive on the island.

Do I need a passport to visit St. John from Florida?

Is it hard to get around once I arrive?
