The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos helps travelers from Petersburg Borough plan a snorkeling and beach week on St. John, rented villas at the Westin St John Resort being the focus of our local team.
Petersburg Borough sits in the far north of the country, where winters are long and dark and many residents go looking for warm water and sunshine. A week of snorkeling and lazy beach days can feel like a complete change of scenery, and that contrast is part of the appeal. Villa rentals give you your own kitchen, a quiet place to rest between swims, and room to spread out when the day is done. St John Condos is a local team that answers questions before you book, so you can talk through the details of your trip with people who know the island. We can help you think about how a villa suits a week of snorkeling, how you might pace your beach days, and what to expect when you arrive. There is no pressure to decide quickly, and a clear answer is always better than a rushed booking.

Planning your week from Petersburg Borough
- Reaching the island. Most visitors reach St. John by flying to St. Thomas, which uses the airport code STT. From there, a taxi takes you to Red Hook, where you board the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay. Plan your connections with care, pack light for the ferry, and keep your snorkel gear in your carry-on so it is close at hand when you land.
- Choosing your travel window. Think about the season before you commit to dates. Coming from a northern state means you may enjoy warm, steady conditions for the water, but you should still check with our team about what suits your plans. Choosing a window that matches your goals for snorkeling and beach time helps you make the most of every day.
- Setting up your villa stay. Villas are rented by the week, which gives your snorkeling plans room to breathe. Ask us about the layout, what is included, and how close you will be to the beach. Remember that driving on St. John is on the left, so plan your rides with that in mind, and let us know any questions before you book.
